Erie Technical Systems Inc. manufactures bag break stations for the unloading of small 25 to 100-pound bags. Our bag break stations are designed for the most demanding and dusty environments. The powerful dust collection system minimizes airborne particles and eliminates operator exposure to harsh or hazardous powders. The dust collection system is designed to be self-cleaning using reverse pulse jets to dislodge material captured by the HEPA filters. Dust collection is triggered automatically anytime the access door is open. Standard units are available in carbon or stainless steel construction. Standard features include fast-flow rounded hopper corners, a convenient working height, and a collapsable slitting shelf. Additional standard options for the bag break station include an outlet rotary valve, a FlexMAX® flexible screw conveyor. For materials that set up in transit or are not free-flowing, Erie Technical Systems can integrate a de-lumper, aeration pads, or a rotary electric bin vibrator. Our standard designs cover most common applications but custom geometry and design support are also available.
Our dust collecting bag break stations are available with a FlexMAX® flexible screw conveyor built right into the design. The bottom of the bag break hopper is used to feed material into the flexible screw conveyor and carried out to the next piece of equipment such as a mixer, blender or our ValuMAX® bulk bag filler.
