Loosens solidified materials
04 March 2013

Enabling bulk bag unloaders to
 discharge more easily and fully
 through bag spouts, Flexicon's Block-
 Buster Bulk Bag Conditioner is
 designed to loosen material that has
 solidified during storage or ship -
 ment. The new conditioner is suitable
 for use with bulk bags containing
 hygroscopic chemicals, certain spice
 blends, heat-sensitive products, and
 other materials prone to solidifying to
 the point at which pneumaticallyactuated
 flow promotion accessories
 integral to bulk bag dischargers may
 become inefficient.
 
The unit incorporates a canti - levered I-beam with motorised hoist and trolley, allowing the loading and unloading of bulk bags without the use of a forklift. After lowering a bag into the conditioner frame, two hydraulic rams fitted with contoured plates press opposing sides of the bulk bag to loosen the material.
