Processed bulk material: chocolate powder

Instant chocolate powder

This company in the agri-food sector produces chocolates, sweets, condiments, seasonings, sugars...

The company required a system that would enable the operators to manually cut and empty bags containing powder or granulated products in a dust-free environment (polyester felt bags, oleo-hydrophobic treatment).

Industrial equipment:

Bag dumping station, integrating a screening system, a bag compactor, a dust collection unit and a pneumatic conveying system VFlow®.
The machine body is made of 304 stainless steel.

This powder process consists of a bag emptying station, integrating a Sacktip SH® screening system. The bags are manually emptied by the operator in the Sacktip SH® manual bag emptying station. The cocoa powder flows gravitationaly on the vibrating screen integrated into the structure of the powder discharge station and is stored in the buffer hopper positioned under the bag discharge station. The assembly is connected to a pneumatic conveying cyclone allowing the emptying of the buffer hopper of the bag dump station.
A bag compactor is used for the evacuation and reprocessing of empty bags. A dust removal unit, flanged to the bag dump station, completes the entire system, thus limiting dust emissions.
Installation flow rate = 3000 kg/h. or 8600 l./h. (density = 0.35)
