BAG-VAC® dust containment system - BAG-VAC® dust collector creates negative pressure within the sealed system to collapse empty bags prior to retying, eliminating dust commonly emitted when bags are flattened manually. In addition, the BAG-VAC® dust collector vacuums any particles trapped in spout creases during disconnect, eliminating the need for awkward access ports.
BEV-CON(TM) conveyors - BEV-CON(TM) conveyors can move powder and bulk solid materials that tend to pack, cake, smear, plug, fluidise, separate, or are otherwise difficult-to-handle.
BEV-CON(TM) conveyors are also highly effective for handling fragile or brittle products that tend to break or crumble from the friction, crushing, grinding, pressure, or impact that can occur in other conveyors. Products ideally suited to the special capabilities of a BEV-CON(TM) conveyor range from sub-micron powders to large pellets and include:
* CHEMICALS: Titanium dioxide, carbon black, calcium carbonate, powdered lime, rubber, detergent powders and sulphur
* FOODS: Cake mixes, soup mixes, gravy mixes, cocoa powder, cheese, candy, milk powder, dehydrated, frozen or raw vegetables, fruits and nuts
* PHARMACEUTICALS AND COSMETICS: Talc, titanium dioxide, zinc oxide, clay, calcium carbonate, powder and finished bulk of all types
Flexicon® - Flexicon Corporation is a world leader in the design and manufacture of bulk handling equipment and custom-engineered and integrated plant-wide systems that transport, discharge, fill, weigh, blend, deliver and/or feed a broad range of powder and bulk solid materials.
FLOW-FLEXER(TM) bag activators - FLOW-FLEXER(TM) bag activators raise and lower bottom edges of the bag to direct material into the bag outlet spout and to raise the bag into a steep "V" shape to promote total evacuation.
POP-TOP(TM) bag stretching device - POP-TOP(TM) extension devices stretch the bag into a cone shape, promoting complete discharge.
POWER-CINCHER® flow control valve - Unlike opposing bars that pinch the spout of partially empty bags from two sides, the POWER-CINCHER® pneumatically-actuated flow control valve (patent pending) contains a series of curved, articulated stainless steel rods that cinch the spout concentrically on a horizontal axis for easy tie-offs, and vertically in a tight zigzag pattern to prevent leakage of even the finest powders. It also resists jamming, breaking and leaking, and allows full-open discharge from bag spouts of all popular diameters.
SPOUT-LOCK® clamp ring - The patented SPOUT-LOCK® clamp ring eliminates dust during untying, discharge, bag collapse and removal
The SPOUT-LOCK® clamp ring creates a high-integrity, sealed connection between the clean side of the bag outlet spout and the clean side of the telescoping tube. This prevents contamination of the product, while eliminating the plant contamination that occurs when falling material displaces air and dust from the hopper. The clamp ring is fully accessible and manually operated using quick-release handles for rapid and safe, yet secure, bag spout connections.
SWING-DOWN(TM) bulk bag filler - Flexicon's SWING-DOWN(TM) bulk bag filler features a pivot-down fill head that enables the operator to connect empty bags at floor level and resume filling operations rapidly, eliminating the need to climb steps, strain to reach overhead connection points, or risk injury associated with operation of conventional bulk bag fillers.
TELE-TUBE® telescoping tube - Where absolute spillage containment is essential in bulk bag discharge, the double wall TELE-TUBE® telescoping tube with BAG-VAC® dust collector provides double protection against spillage. The TELE-TUBE® telescoping tube draws errant particles into the dust collector through an annular gap that encircles the bag spout seal.
TWIN-CENTREPOST(TM) bulk bag filler - Flexicon's patented TWIN-CENTREPOST(TM) bulk bag filler satisfies low- to medium-capacity filling requirements and/or applications where frequent wash-down or compliance with food, dairy, or pharmaceutical standards is required.
Z-CLIP(TM) bag strap holder - Z-CLIP(TM) strap holders offer the fastest, most secure way to connect bag straps to the lifting frame of a bag dumping or discharge station.
