Description
Big bag conditioner - Crushing of big bags to break up the build-up of the product
The SmashR® Conv big bag emptying station gives operators autonomy in decompacting powders stored in big bags. In its automatic version it controls massaging cycles, cycle times and the evacuation of the conditioned big bag without the need for repetitive operator intervention.
It optimizes production times and automates the crushing of lumps contained in big bags.

- Cycle starts automatically
- The gates exert 4 upwards pressure on the big bag.
- Table rotates 90°
- The wings exert 4 upwards pressure on the big bag.
- Table rotates 90°
- The cycle is complete, and the big bag is automatically discharged.
The number of presses and table turns is adjustable.
