Description
Bulk bag unloading station - EASYFLOW OPERATOR SAFETY
BULK BAG GLOVE BOX
Total containment and operator safety
The bulk bag unloader station equipped with a glove box allows operators to handle toxic products without coming into contact with them. Thanks to the bulk bag glove box, the operator can easily access the bulk bag spout to untie it and allow the material to be emptied with no risk of direct exposure.
Rate: 10 bulk bags/hr.
Capacity: 2 tons/bulk bag
Objectives: dust containment & flexibility of bulk bag dimensions
The bulk bags unloading station equipped with a glove box allows safe toxic material handling by containing dust and avoiding direct operator exposure.
The Palamatic Process dust-tight bulk bag emptying station is the ideal solution for the handling of toxic chemicals and contaminants. The stations can be fabricated in painted carbon steel, hot-dip galvanized steel, 304L stainless steel, or 316L stainless steel. There are three main designs in order to facilitate the installation of the bulk bag on the discharge station: a forklift truck, an electric hoist, or a low structure.

Dust tight big bag discharger
The contents of the 3 bulk bag unloading systems are reconditioned in stainless steel containers.
Big bag discharging - Glove box
Liquid formulation:
- 3 big bag dischargers for 7 types of bulk materials.
- 3 re-packing and un-packing stations for stainless steel containers.
- 2 pneumatic conveyors feeding 2 reactors.
Bulk bag discharging - Glove box
The customer's requirements for this process specifically relate to containment during deconditioning.
Jumbo bag - Dust containment enclosure
The dust containment enclosure prevents the operator from coming into contact with the discharged bulk material while maintaining a good visibility.
Big bag discharger glove box
This installation includes 3 big bag discharging stations for 7 types of materials
Big bag discharging system - Glove box
Big bag discharging system - Glove box. Electric hoist loading. A big bag compactor is integrated into the emptying system.
Industrial dust collection powder handling
This machine is designed for the manual opening of all types of big bags, limiting dust emissions as much as possible and facilitating the flow of the bulk material. The big bag is installed using an electric hoist.
Big bag unloader
The dust containment enclosure with its dust-tight door provides safe and ergonomic access to the big bag discharge spout.

Options
Available options
-
Dust collection ring
It helps to minimize dust emissions.
The dedusting ring is mounted on the tray. It consists of a split tubing and two connection connections for dust removal. A manually operated damper adjusts or closes the vacuum flow.
-
Glove box on bulk bag discharging station
Handling of toxic products and contaminants.
The gloves are installed on the door of the stripping box, mounted on PVC glove rings. Clamps provide containment and closure. A neon implanted outside through a plexiglass facilitates the opening operations of the big bag. The glove stripping box allows the user to handle the big bag without coming into contact with various potentially toxic products. Indeed, the glove box will allow the user to undo the bun of the big bag to allow its emptying. A screen is added to the stripping box to secure the process.
Glove manufacturing material adapted to the requirements of your products.
-
Compactor
The Palamatic Process big bag compactor reduces the volume of waste and maintains a healthy atmosphere without dust.
It can be installed on one side or the other of the structure. -
Lump breaker
Our lump breakers present the ideal solution for crushing materials that tend to make lumps.
The device makes it possible to break the lumps that are created during the production or transport processes of the friable materials in powder or in grains. -
Big bag massage
Massage flow aid system: the cylinders break the vaults and break the mass accumulation.
Heavily dimensioned pneumatic cylinders installed in the lower part of the big bag break the vaults and break the mass accumulation (2, 4 or 6 cylinders depending on the type of product).
Possible alternative: vibrating plate: deposit plate mounted on silentblocks with vibrating motor to optimize the emptying of certain products. The massage solution can be offered as an independent equipment to prepare big bags mass before emptying.
-
Electric hoist
It allows the handling of big bags by all the operators (autonomy of the station). It is installed on a galvanized steel handling rail (IPE). The hoist includes a complete power supply with flexible cables as well as a chain tray. The lifting and translation of the big bag are controlled by the operator via the button box.
-
U-shaped bag puncture tip
This tip allows the opening of the big bag without direct action of the operator. It is particularly used when using big bags with a cuff (U-shaped tip).
Once the big bag is placed on the emptying station, the operator lowers the big bag using a hoist to let it rest on the bag puncture tip located on the dispensing tray. The force exerted by the 'product' weight on the knives will allow instant cutting of the bottom of the big bag.
For big bags with cuff, the tip is U-shaped and allows to cut the big bag open at the height of his cuff.
-
V-shaped tip
This tip allows the opening of the big bag without direct action of the operator. It is particularly used when using bleed big bags (V-shaped tip).
Once the big bag is placed on the emptying station, the operator lowers the big bag using a hoist to let it rest on the bag puncture tip located on the dispensing tray. The force exerted by the 'product' weight on the knives will allow instant cutting of the bottom of the big bag.
For big bags with bleed-bottom, the V-shaped diamond tip and allows the bottom of the big bag to be cut open.
-
Telescopic pipe
It allows a dustproof connection of the big bag and ensures tension on the big bag cuff.
The double casing telescopic tube is tied to a flat ring via clamps. The pneumatic cylinder allows the operator to adjust the connection height to suit different types of big bags. The airtight connection is ensured by an inflatable seal and a refocusing ring produced to avoid retention.
-
Control valve
Stop the product or regulate the flow.
The Palamatic Process control valve is used to stop the flow of fusible bulk materials or simply to regulate the flow rate, a pneumatic valve throttles the "trunking" sleeve of the big bag.
This valve is actuated by three cylinders and allows the operator to interrupt or regulate the descent of powders at any time.
