Application
The device is designed for facilities that receive and discharge bulk
materials supplied in Big Bags. It is particularly effective for products
prone to caking, such as those that have been transported over long
distances by sea or stored in humid conditions.

The Big Bag Crusher:

• Restores the free-flowing properties of the product before
  discharge.
• Protects equipment from impact damage caused by compacted
  lumps and helps prevent costly downtime.
• Speeds up the discharge process and eliminates the need for
  manual breaking up of the material inside the bags.

Specification
The Big Bag Crusher breaks up compacted material inside the bag
before it enters the discharge process. Two hydraulically driven arms
compress the bag, while the platform holding the bag moves
vertically and rotates through 90°. This agitates the material at three
different heights and from all sides. The reach of the arms and the
platform lifting height are adjustable. The operator can also set the
number of platform rotations and bag compression cycles to suit the
specific product.

The machine features a powder-coated steel construction.
The platform accommodates pallets of various sizes. The machine
is powered by a hydraulic power unit equipped with an oil heating
system. It is controlled via a PLC and a touchscreen operator panel.
The machine operates within a safety-guarded area. It cannot start
when the access doors are open, and opening the doors immediately
stops the machine.
