The BIG BAG dosing station

A large number of manufacturers offer equipment for BIG BAG emptying. If you look at the details, you can see major differences between the individual concepts. This is largely due to customer-specific requirements. It is particularly difficult when it comes to so-called “problematic” bulk materials, whether they are poorly flowing, bridge-forming, cohesive, fibrous or block-forming. In addition, emptying the BIG BAG is usually not enough. The material must also be transported to the point of use, often over long distances, and if possible weighed and dosed.
There are also invaluable advantages when the entire technology for the process steps of emptying, dosing and conveying is combined in a single compact device. As a result of these considerations, DASAG Verfahrenstechnik – Anlagenbau developed its BIG BAG dosing station
with powder pump.

The main advantage of this standardized system is its flexibility of use due to

• of a modular structure
• their self-sufficient concept
• use of the properties of the DASAG powder pump

A detailed look at the system reveals the following features and variants:

• system can be loaded using a forklift or integrated electric chain hoist
• suitable for 4-loop BIG BAGs with central discharge trunks
• emptying of BIG BAGs up to 2.0 m in length
• use of modular, integrable discharge aids for safe discharge and residual emptying
• BIG BAG docking system is always adapted to the BIG BAG discharge for safe and low-dust discharge
• integrated weighing frame turns the BIG BAG into a flexible weighing container
• properties of the DASAG powder pump enable uniform and metered discharge
• production-related partial emptying of the BIG BAG possible
• flexible choice of installation location through use of the powder pump

The main application of our BIG BAG dosing station is the direct, preferably batchwise feeding of processing machines with weighed products directly from the container.

Examples of applications are:

• mixer feeding in the building materials industry
• reactor feeding in the chemical industry
• feeding agitator systems / dissolvers in the paints and varnishes and adhesives industry
• feeding of processing machines in the
• automotive supply industry, battery production, salt processing, recycling industry etc.
