Big bag emptying station with unlacing cabinet - Standard big bag unloading equipment
Rate: 10 to 30 big bags/h.
Capacity: 2 tons/big bag
The EF0 big bag unloading station is a standard model that has been designed to ergonomically empty big bags and facilitate their safe handling. The structure is adjustable to easily adapt to different bulk bag sizes and loading methods.
The EF0 big bag emptying equipment offers 3 types of loading models: hoist, forklift, and low structure.
Palamatic Process has developed big bag unloading stations to meet the needs of various industries feeding their bulk material into their production process via FIBC packages.
As standard, Palamatic Process offers two sizes to accommodate common width dimensions of big bags: 1,250 mm and 1,500 mm. This station also allows the unloading of big bags and the use of an electric hoist, forklift or low structure design for spaces with restrictive clearances.
A big bag handling cross is provided by Palamatic Process to allow for the safe handling and loading of the big bags.
Equipment advantages
- Anti-overflow tube for containment of the material flow during unloading.
- Safety screen to prevent foreign objects entering downstream process.
- Vibration tray to facilitate material flow.
- Safety baffle to secure the loops of the bulk bag for safe handling.

Big BAG UNLOADING SYSTEM
The big bag unloading station is used to empty big bags using an electric hoist installed at the top of the structure. The hoist has a lifting capacity of 2 tons.
Big bag discharging - Untying box
The standard big bag discharger is fitted with a dust containment enclosure. This dust containment enclosure consists of a sealed door.
Big BAG EMPTYING LINE
An anti-overflow tube is an integrated feature on this big bag unloading station. This provides containment, around the big bag cuff, of the bulk material flow during the emptying cycle. This feature provides ergonomics and safety for the operator.
SUPER SACK UNLOADING
The big bag emptying station is fitted with a bulk bag hanger. This station is height adjustable in order to adapt to big bags of different dimensions.

The dust containment enclosure with sealed door provides safe and ergonomic access to the big bag spout.
deconditioning line
Standard big bag discharging stations with electric hoist loading. Width of the big bag passage: 1 250 & 1500 mm.
BIG BAG UNLOADING
The big bags are emptied to feed the storage tanks downstream by a pneumatic conveying system. The material feed is controlled by loss in weight load cells positioned under the big bag discharge station.
Big bag unloader food industry
The standard big bag discharger model is used to decondition all types of powders and bulk materials.
