Flexicon, Bethlehem, Pa., developed a new BULK-OUT bulk bag discharging station to prevent cross-contamination during material changeovers, while eliminating downtime associated with cleaning of hoppers.
Beneficial for applications involving food allergens, pigments, flavorings and other contamination-sensitive materials, this discharger features an in-use shuttle system to be exchanged for a clean, dry hopper in less than one minute.
