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.

Industrial production is being asked to use fewer resources, become smarter and keep equipment productive for longer. At GEA, that is changing how innovation happens: engineering, customer insight, digital expertise and service come together earlier – when a solution can still be shaped at its core.
