The GEA big-bag emptying station is a system appropriately sized to lift and empty big-bags containing any type of product.
The station is primarily composed of a painted carbon steel structure equipped with an electric hoist to lift the big-bags. An operator can handle and empty any big-bag without a forklift. The machine is designed to function in conditions of total safety in compliance with statutory workplace health and safety regulations. The system can be equipped with a stainless steel hopper to convey the discharged product. If the hopper is required to perform an accumulator function, it can be equipped with an extraction belt or a vibrating extractor to discharge the contents.
