Bulk-Out discharger Flexicon's newest discharger is used to empty mobile bins into a surge hopper and convey the contents to downstream processing equipment. Suitable for a wide range of applications and materials such as resin pellets and plastic flake, the discharger uses an electric hoist and trolley to lift mobile bins weighing up to 3,200 pounds. Each mobile bin, (inset photo), is fitted with eyebolts for connecting to the lifting cradle. The system comes with either an integral flexible screw conveyor, a tubular cable conveyor or a pneumatic conveying system. The stainless-steel surge hopper, (pictured below), is vented to Flexicon's Bag-Vac dust-collection system, which prevents dust from entering the plant atmosphere.
What's new? A low-profile design.
Benefits Dust-free materials handling in areas with height restrictions.
