Emptying powder and bulk goods from containers

At companies that process bulk materials, the raw products are often delivered in containers. This leads to the question of how these containers can be emptied as quickly and efficiently as possible.

Our container emptying station has been developed in such a way that its loading can be easily and individually adjusted. As shown here, the container is placed on the station by forklift truck and the discharge valve is manually opend.

  • The container is emptied by gravity.
  • The bulk material is then gently introduced into the process by means of vacuum conveying.
  • The container docking stations can also be used for metered filling of containers.
