Big bag conditioner - SmashR®

Available options

• 
  

  Radio remote control

  Benefits: 

  • Station control from forklift truck
  • Enhanced ergonomics

  High-speed pump

  Advantages: 

  • Increased output
     

  Description:

  This option consists of equipping the SmashR® with a high-speed hydraulic pump, which speeds up big bag breaking cycles. 
  During the start up phase, the cylinders are moved at high speed and low pressure.
  For the massaging cycle, a slower and high-pressure pump breaks up the deep seated lumps.
  With a high-speed pump, the SmashR can process big bags more quickly.

  Integrated traceability system

  Benefits: 

  • Complete cycle traceability
  • Option: printing on big bag or label printer
     

  Description:

  The integrated traceability system enables the SmashR to generate detailed reports on the history of operation. This includes data such as cycle times, force applied, downtime, etc. These reports offer complete traceability of the big bag unpacking process, which can be essential for quality monitoring, regulatory compliance and continuous process improvement. Data is stored on a server or USB stick. 

  Complementary option: Add a printer to label your big bags.

  3D scan of the Big Bag

  Advantages: 

  • Allows great variability in big bag sizes
  • Increased safety to prevent damage to big bags
     

  
  Description:

  The integrated rangefinder system automatically analyzes the size and shape of the big bag before starting the conditioning cycle. Using this data, the SmashR® automatically adjusts its parameters to ensure optimum decompaction. This system is particularly useful for : 

  • High-value big bags
  • Big bags with unusual shapes
  • Fragile products
  • Toxic products
  • Big bags that regularly vary in size

  When you start a cycle with the classic station, positioning and settings depend on the operator. In this case, the system takes care of the various settings.

  ATEX

  The SmashR® ATEX is a solution specially designed for environments where safety is paramount, particularly in hazardous areas. 

  It offers a number of features to ensure compliance with ATEX standards, such as:

  • Isolated environment: every element at risk is isolated. This prevents hazards inside the SmashR®. 

  • ATEX lifting table: The SmashR's lifting table is also designed to ATEX standards, guaranteeing its safety when crushing big bags containing flammable powders.

  • Big bag grounding during activation: An innovative system enables the SmashR® to ground the big bag, reducing the risk of static electricity in sensitive environments.

  Security door

  Advantages: 

  • Mechanical safety
  • Robust operator protection

  
  Description:

  On every SmashR® you'll find light curtains, but to optimize operator safety, the light curtains are replaced by cage doors with a safety strike plate. This door is designed to prevent access to the work area while the machine is running, reducing the risk of accidents.

  Core-breaking cylinder on top of the big bag

  Advantages: 

  Breaks lumps at the center of the big bag.

   

  Description:

  • This option adds additional cylinders to the top of the SmashR®, providing extra pressure for more efficient big bag conditioning
  • The cycle is started with the big bag on the table
  • The 4 paddles exert upward motion pressures on the big bag
  • The lifting table descends
  • Core-breaking cylinder extends
  • The lift table rises and presses the big bag against the core-breaker cylinder.
  • The table rotates 90° and the cycle is repeated. 

  This feature is particularly useful for very compact or difficult-to-crumble materials, improving the productivity and efficiency of the big bag unloading process.

  Table force: 2T / 20 kN
