Bulk bag unloader systems

National Bulk Equipment, Inc. bulk bag unloader systems are designed and built specifically for food and pharmaceutical processing and packaging operations.

Hp 20252 Nbe sanitary compliant bbd 1
Help ensure compliance with domestic and international sanitary standards. Application-specific construction, including 304-2b stainless-steel framework, with continuous weld seams ground to a No. 4 finish, enables CIP sanitizing.

Tool-less component dis-assembly speeds cleaning and simplifies inspection, while 32 Ra component surface finishes and food-grade non-metal components provide excellent material release and resistance to corrosive foods, pharmaceuticals, and cleaning chemicals.

These sanitary bulk bag unloader systems also support process practice protocols where 3-A Accepted Practices or other cGMPs are necessary.

Systems leverage integrated automation to optimize uptime availability within food and pharmaceutical processing and packaging operations. System-wide process control, communication, sensing, monitoring, and reporting are centralized to a single, menu-driven, touchscreen HMI. High-speed Ethernet communications deliver information to UL-listed panels designed and built by NBE. NBE custom panel configurations include UL 508A, Class I and II, Divisions 1 and 2, Groups A - D, F and G, and NEMA 12 enclosures with Type X purge.
