Bulk Bag Conditioners Do you need to empty a Bulk Bag whose contents have become so compact as to form a solid block due to environment moisture, abrupt temperature change or the impossibility of arranging storage in a suitable place? With its “Bulk Bag Conditioner”, GIMAT has the solution for you. The Bulk Bag is reconditioned between two crushing plates to restore it from its “monolithic” condition to the original powder or at least to a granular state. Each crushing plate is driven horizontally by a pair of hydraulic pressers devices specifically configured to generate adequate pressure on the Bulk Bag without breaking it. The oversize hydraulic pump is able to ensure the necessary power at all times, even for particularly resistant Bulk Bags. The compressing action is applied to all four sides of the Bulk Bag thanks to the pneumatic pallet turner that rotates it by 90° and along the entire length by means of the automatic vertical movement of the two crushing plates. The Bulk Bag can be loaded on the special pallet turner either by a forklift or pallet truck, so the “Bulk Bag Conditioner” can be installed in very narrow and even elevated spaces. The crushing system is anchored to a rigid frame with closed, self-supporting structure ( certified by Fem Analysis) within which all the high-powered reactions, generated during compression of the Bulk Bag, are discharged. The reconditioning cycle is both manual and fully automatic and programmable via touch panel with customized recipes depending on the type of Bulk Bag. Automation is achieved with a Siemens S7-1200 PLC.
