NBE bulk bag filling process system

Wednesday, 22 January, 2014 | Supplied by: Mercer Technologies


National Bulk Equipment (NBE) has launched a complete bulk bag filling process system, which includes automated pallet introduction, automated metering of material supply, NTEP-certified precision bag weighing and automated filled-bag accumulation conveyors.

According to the company, the system enables a single operator to process up to twenty 2000 kg-capacity bulk bags/h or 40,823 kg of dry bulk material/h.

NBE integrated automation uses a single, menu-driven HMI to centralise system-wide operations, including legacy, upstream material supply equipment. The integrated automation directs all equipment controls, communication, sensing, monitoring and data reporting using UL listed panels built by NBE.

The company says its integrated automation can reduce material loss, increase overall equipment effectiveness and improve labour efficiency and safety.

Process line optimisation begins immediately upon the introduction and staging of the first pallet. The cantilevered fill head/bag hanger carriage uses pneumatic actions to bring the fill head and rear bag hooks within the operator’s reach, so there is no need for the operator to step or lean into the equipment.

The 8 GPM hydraulic carriage easily and safely lifts bag capacities up to 2000 kg. The ergonomic design maintains optimal operator posture for safe and efficient operation.

NTEP-certified weigh systems provide valid, accurate and repeatable weighing of the bags to an accuracy of ±0.01%, improving total process efficiency by eliminating reworking of over- and underfilled bags, and reducing material loss.
