TBMA Belgium has supplied Campine with a bag dump cabinet with blow-through rotary valve, piping and Piab unit for the conveying of sticky products. Pre-testing in the TBMA test room showed that these products can be easily processed with vacuum conveying. Also, a smart solution was invented to prevent cross-contamination. Alternative for bag handling Campine in Beerse (Belgium) recycles industrial waste streams to make new raw materials. The company dismantles lead-based car batteries and is engaged in the recovery of metals. They also produce high-quality antimony trioxide as flame retardant synergist, raw material for pigments or catalyst for PET production. This makes the company a prominent player in the circular economy. Specifically for the plastic market, Campine produces masterbatches in which powdered additives are mixed in a carrier polymer. In this way, they relieve their customers when it comes to safe processing of dusty and ATEX-sensitive powders. To optimise their production process, Campine sought an alternative to pouring bags of additives directly into a gravimetric feeder. This refilling

Easy big bag emptying up to OEB 4 - with the new SmartCon system 1. In order to maintain the leakproofness of the system, the liner residue of the previously emptied big bag should only be removed when a new big bag has been connected., 2. The pressure lid must be lifted and the separated outlet must be manually placed in the emptying hopper. , 3. In order to connect a new big bag to be emptied, the big bag outlet must simply be placed over the emptying unit. , 4. The pressure plate moves down automatically. Pneumatic seals fasten the big bag outlet securely into place on the docking system., 5. Now, the cover of the engagement connection can be opened without tools., 6. The operator can use the engagement connection with an endless liner system to safely reach for the separated liner., 7. The separated liner is removed from the engagement connection., 8. The piece of foil and the liner contained within it can now be untied, separated and disposed of., 9. After the engagement connection cover has been closed, the contamination-free emptying can begin., 10. After the emptying process has finished, the big bag outlet can be untied and separated with the docking system. The process then starts again from the beginning., The optional leakproofness test can detect even the smallest amounts of damage to the foil liner outlet., The operating personnel are guided through the process by a control system that specifies all the work steps.

Turnkey Solutions for Plastics Industry Polimak has succesfully finished a turnkey polyethylene handling project for a global composite manufacturer. Client's demand was to achieve a seamless bulk material handling solution from raw material delivery to feeding point of production line. Project incorporated automatic sack discharging system, pneumatic conveying system, stainless steel storage silos and extruder feeding system. All components of the system were controlled from a central PLC system for fully automatic operation. The core component of the project was automatic bag discharge system which enables bulk materials coming from sacks to be unloaded in an efficient and safe way saving manpower, time and operational costs. 15 to 50 kg bags on plastic or wooden pallets are placed on belt conveyor of the system together with pallet by forklift. Conveyor moves the pallet to the bag lifting unit. The automatic gripping system grips the bags on the top with pneumatically driven claws. And moves them horizontally

Container Stripper Copal Development Copal Development has developed a so-called Spidergripper for the unloading sisal bags, polypropylene + polyethylene bags and jute bags & bales (non woven) filled with for instance cacao, coffee, nuts or tea. With this gripper, which can be easily connected to a Copal C2 Container Stripper, it is now possible to unload jute bags automatically. Not only does this mean a saving on time and costs, but also the heavy physical effort of employees becomes history. The jute bags are taken out of a container by a unique fully automatic mechanism and placed on an extendible conveyor belt. The bags are transported by the conveyor belt and then fully automatically palletized for further transportation or storage. Loading and unloading containers normally costs a lot of time and manpower and therefore a lot of money too. Efficient production and turnaround times To prevent overloading and permanent injury of employees, Copal Development has been designing and producing container

Dinnissen Process Technology has developed a new bag emptier with an integrated automated pallet handler especially for companies looking to process large numbers of bags. This latest version of the popular Dima 1200 can empty between 200 and 1500 bags per hour quickly, safely and efficiently. In addition, it helps companies to comply with stricter standards of hygiene and to minimize product spillage/waste in a wide range of industries. Emptying a large number of bags with various ingredients in the feed, food, pharma and chemical industries is a labour-intensive, unsafe and expensive activity. In response to the needs of such clients, Dinnissen developed the new Dima 1200 bag emptier with integrated automated pallet handler. With this fully automated facility, a forklift operator can empty between 200 and 1500 bags, (i.e. 200 kg to 50 tons, per hour). All the operator has to do is to feed the pallets with the bags into the facility. The pallets are first tipped

New systems for the pharmaceutical and chemical industries With the growing pressures on production and costs, the DEC Group has been listening to the industry. Everyone in the Pharmaceutical and Chemical Industry has the same problem when it comes to powder handling issues – How to deal with a variety of packs and charge or discharge these safely? From drums to bags, from canisters to containers, there is not just one solution. Because of this, DEC have been working with a few close customers to re-think this problem. The criteria were low cost, simple and modular solutions using new technology to solve most of the old problems. By using these new technologies including air control system, closed loop processes and simplified control loops, DEC have developed a range of environmentally friendly systems that are cost effective and modular meaning that loading and unloading of products using these technologies is both safer and more efficient. Dec solutions touch on the implications for buildings, planners and

Safe charging of reactors Safe charging of bags of powder via the PTS (Powder Transfer System) to one or more reactors or other receiving vessels in a safe manner providing containment for both the operator and the surrounding environment. The Contained Bag Station combines the advantages of isolation technology and laminar flow technique, providing a high containment of < 1µg/m³ per 8 h TWA. The main chamber is open to the side elevation to enable easy loading of bagged powder. A simple hinged door is provided to be closed only during WIP to prevent splashes escaping the unit. All WIP fluids can be drained from the chamber via the PTS System into the Reactor also cleaning the powder transfer hose and PTS. Using the gloves the operator will move the bag in to position on the powder charging bars above the hopper. The bag is then split and the powder emptied through the bars into the suction hopper. The empty bag is disposed through the adjacent continuous liner bag-out port. The loaded

New Dima 200 for automatically, safely and efficiently discharging hazardous materials Dinnissen Process Technology has developed a new bag emptier for automatically emptying bags containing hazardous powders, particles or granules while at the same time reducing the quantity of material released into the environment to an absolute minimum. The bag emptier is a new version of Dinnissen’s classic Dima 200 and makes it possible to automatically empty bags while releasing less than 0.1 mg of dust per m3 of discharged material. The ultra dust-free bag emptier is suitable for discharging extremely fine particles (powder particles down to 10 nm). Fully automatic bag emptier capable of handling up to 160 bags per hour Dinnissen Process Technology has developed a special new version of the Dima 200 for companies which need to minimize the amount of material released while emptying bags to the absolute minimum. The new ultra dust-free bag emptier makes it possible to automatically empty (large) bags containing materials which are very fine, hazardous, or
