Bag Lifter and Emptying Station for Powder Transfer
If you still receive key ingredients in bags instead of bulk, a bag lifter and emptying station helps you unload them safely, feed silos or lines automatically, and keep dust under control.
Transfers bagged powders into silos or lines
The bag lifter and emptying station from Agriflex is designed for unloading sacks into your storage or dosing system without working at height. Bags are placed on the floor, picked up by a self-tilting lifting device and raised to the pouring level, where the operator empties them into an enclosed hopper.
The emptying station can function as a small buffer silo or as a direct loading point into pneumatic conveying, enabling you to treat bagged ingredients as if they were supplied in bulk. Optional dust extraction and integrated sifting remove foreign bodies and improve workplace hygiene. Capacity and hopper design can be customised to your bag sizes and downstream flow requirements.
Use it to feed flour, sugar, seeds or premix into silos, or to top up micro-ingredient systems. By allowing operators to work from the ground with mechanical lifting, you reduce ergonomic risk and improve safety while maintaining continuous supply to your production line.
