Applications & Industries

Over the past few decades, we have successfully delivered more than 100 big bag emptying stations. In doing so, we have repeatedly encountered specific requirements, particularly when handling solids that tend to clump together or even become liquid when exposed to moisture. Thanks to innovative system solutions for attachment and discharge, we have been able to successfully overcome these demanding challenges and offer customized solutions.

The big bag emptiers from IFA Technology can be used in a wide range of industries where precise material handling and metering are required:

Emptying chemicals, raw materials and powders with the highest standards of precision and safety

Handling of building materials such as sand, gravel and insulation materials

Hygienic and precise emptying of raw materials and cleaning agents

Emptying of agricultural raw materials such as grain and animal feed

Advantages of big bag emptying stations

Our big bag emptying systems offer numerous advantages that contribute to efficient and safe production:

Advanced technologies guarantee an almost dust-free emptying. This increases the safety of employees and protects the environment.

Volumetric monitoring enables precise control of the emptying process and consistent feeding into production.

We offer a variety of options, including wheeled models, explosion-proof variants and customized solutions for specific requirements.

Our emptying stations meet the highest safety standards, which ensures both the protection of employees and continuous production.

The big bag emptiers can be easily integrated into existing production lines. This guarantees seamless production.

Technical details and contents

Our big bag unloading systems are made of high-quality, durable materials and are equipped with the latest technologies to make emptying efficient and safe:

  • Sturdy base frame for maximum stability and durability
  • Electric chain hoist for precise positioning of the big bag
  • Cross suspension bracket for secure holding during the emptying process
  • Docking device for dust-free emptying
  • Optional: loss-in-weight scale for precise material recording and level indicator for continuous material supply

In addition, we also supply customized control systems that make it easier to operate and monitor the automatic big bag emptying station. Furthermore, we offer complete dosing systems for precise material dosing and processing.

Our big bag emptying stations offer the option of integrating a gravimetric dosing system to precisely weigh the amount of material removed. The exact amount of material emptied is determined by the weighing system, so that it can be transferred to the next production process with a high degree of accuracy. This function ensures precise control of the amount of material and improves the efficiency and quality of your production processes.
