How the EasyFlow EF500 OEB Station Works
Steps for Bulk Bag Emptying
The emptying process with the EasyFlow EF500 OEB station involves simple and secure steps:
- Positioning: The bulk bag is placed on the station using lifting systems. The support structure keeps the bag upright for optimal unloading.
- Opening the Bag: A secure opening is performed, allowing controlled flow of powders without releasing dust into the environment
- Unloading: Powders are smoothly and securely discharged into production equipment.
Containment Technologies
Integrated containment technologies, such as airtight gloves, sealing gaskets, and dust capture systems, ensure a confined environment throughout the emptying process. These features reduce the risk of fine particle dispersion in the workspace, guaranteeing enhanced safety.

Options
Available options
-
Dedusting ring bulk bag discharge station 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 suction flow.
-
Bulk bag compactor
It helps reduce the volume of waste and keep a healthy and dust free atmosphere.
The bulk bag compactors collect and compress all types of bulk bags, while eliminating most of the dust by installing a connection to the sewerage system.
-
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. See the range of Palamatic Process lump breakers.
-
Bulk bag massage system
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 tray: removal tray implanted on silentblocs with vibrating motor to optimize the emptying of certain products. The massage solution can be offered as an independent equipment to prepare bulk bags mass before emptying.
