The Bulk-Out Bulk Bag Discharger from Flexicon eliminates dust during untying, discharging, retying, collapsing and removing of bulk bags while increasing safety and promoting complete discharge of coffee and tea from the bag. A patented Spout-Lock clamp ring atop a pneumatically-actuated Tele-Tube (telescoping tube) allows quick, dust-tight connections, and maintains downward tension on the bag as it empties and elongates, promoting complete discharge. Flow-Flexer bag activators raise and lower opposite bottom edges of the bag at timed intervals, loosening compacted materials and promoting material flow into the bag discharge spout. For retying of partially-empty bags, a patented Power-Cincher pneumatically-actuated flow control valve cinches the bag spout concentrically. An integral Bag-Vac dust collector creates negative pressure within the sealed system to collapse empty bags prior to retying and disconnection, eliminating dust emitted during manual flattening of empty bags. Patented Z-Clip bag strap holders allow rapid, secure insertion and removal of bag straps. Broad model range allows loading of bags with electric hoist and trolley (shown) or forklift. Numerous options include integrated scale systems for loss-of-weight batching directly from bulk bags. Carbon steel construction with durable industrial finish, or stainless steel in industrial, sanitary, and USDA-accepted finishes. www.flexicon.com
