Bulk Bag Filling Equipment

BULK BAG FILLING SYSTEM SHOWN

Bulk bag filling systems can be custom built to your application. The basic unit includes a 60" x 60" platform scale ( flat top or side rail design) with a 5000 pound capacity. The bag holding structure is fabricated with 3" structural tubing with an adjustable bag holding frame. The stainless steel main support posts and the bag clamp bars are pre-drilled at 2" increments to allow filling of many size bags.

Product is fed into the bag via screw feeder, pneumatic conveying system, slide gate or other means determined by the customer or dictated by the product. The batch controller provides two outputs for fast and slow speed filling. Preact compensation adjusts the final cutoff point to account for material in suspension. Analog output for speed control can be supplied to adjust speed of screw type feeders that require 4-20ma or 0-10 VDC input for speed control.

The operator would place a pallet on the platform scale, attach a bag to the frame, connect the fill chute to the inflatable seal provided, enter the desired target weight, dribble weight and preact weight into the controller, and press start. The controller would open the valve or start the feed screw to the full open or fast speed until the dribble (slow) point is attained. The controller will then close the valve to the dribble position, or slow the speed of the screw, and continue filling the bag at a slow rate for better control until the target weight is attained.
