Unloader uses ‘regulated vibration’ for discharging
The new Model 821 Bulk Bag Unloader (photo) provides, a safe, dust-tight and highly effective means for discharging a wide assortment of dry solid materials from within bulk bags of various sizes, typically for use in conjunction with this company’s metering equipment. In operation, positive product discharge is reliably achieved by means of regulated vibration uniformly applied to the body of the Model 821 Unloader, and in turn to the bulk bag. The vibratory action is produced by an adjustable heavy-duty motorized vibrator, powered by a totally enclosed, non.vented (a.c.) motor. When energized, powerful flow-inducing vibratory forces transfer from the body of the unloader into the bag and the material contained within, effectively and efficiently discharging its contents. An independently mounted iris valve with the company’s Bag Spout Untie Receptacle is attached beneath the unloader and flexibly connects to the outlet of the unloader. The outlet of the Untie Receptacle typically connects to auxiliary process equipment for a totally dust-tight assembly. — Acrison, Inc., Moonachie, N.J.
