How to automate the emptying of capped big bags with SmashR® and Palamatic Process?

In this article, we see how to optimize the automatic emptying of mass-produced big bags. Some people wonder how to unpack the large quantities of big bags used in industry? How can compact big bags be emptied after difficult transport conditions? What solution can be used to automatically empty all types of big bags?

This article will try to answer your questions, by proposing a solution with the Palamatic Process and SmashR® equipment.

To automate the process of decompacting and emptying big bags, we combine the use of a SmashR® Conv with an EF500. Here's how our solution works:

Big bags are placed on a covneyor, which automatically transports them to the SmashR® Conv.

Once in front of the SmashR® Conv, big bags are decompacted by the controlled pressure exerted by the SmashR® Conv's hydraulic cylinders.

After decompaction, big bags are automatically transferred to the EF500 clamp, ready for emptying.

The EF500 grips the big bags and opens them above the discharge hopper, allowing the product to flow freely.

Once emptying is complete, the product can be processed according to the needs of the production process, while the emptied big bag is compacted.

This solution guarantees efficient, automated big bag decompaction and emptying, improving the productivity and efficiency of your production process

The SmashR® Conv guarantees decompaction with minimum operator intervention.

It can be connected to more or less automated equipment, such as the EF200.
