In Dessel, Belgium, SIBELCO operates the fully automatic filling station for cristobalite - designed and installed by the plant manufacturer EMDE within a short period of time.
Thanks to the powerful weighing and control technology, up to 40 big bags can be filled per hour. Each big bag has a net weight of 1200 kg. To ensure the legal for trade requirements of the filled bags, the W&M approved SysTec weighing indicators are used. EMDE has been installing SysTec‘s innovative weighing systems and controllers on demanding filling lines for many years.
To optimize the performance of the filling station, a weighed hopper was installed above the filling station to discharge the cristobalite into the big bag. This allows simultaneous filling of the container above during the big bag handling times.
