Weigh batch unloader for earthquake-prone regions
Flexicon BFC BULK-OUT Bulk Bag Weigh Batch Unloader

The Flexicon BFC BULK-OUT bulk bag weigh batch unloader includes seismic, 4-sided cross-bracing. The discharger frame features a cantilevered I-beam, as well as an electric hoist and trolley to position the bulk bags without a forklift. A manually operated iris valve on top of the hopper intake chute allows the bag spout to be cinched and the drawstring untied before gradually opening the valve. Mounted on load cells, the unloader is equipped for loss-of-weight batching into receiving vessels or downstream processes.
