Sterling Systems & Controls bulk bag unloading and weighing system

Tuesday, 27 February, 2018 | Supplied by: Sterling Systems and Controls Inc


Sterling Systems & Controls has announced its line of bulk bag unloading systems. These customised unloading systems can include bulk bag discharging, material weighing and batch dispensing, along with the controls required for automatic operation.

The comprehensive system for premixed food ingredients incorporates the mechanical structure which houses and supports the bag discharge, material weighing, dispensing (flexible screw conveyor) and control panel components.

Mechanical components are provided to unload the bulk bag, weigh the desired amount of material as set for a batch by the operator, and then dispense the batch of material into a container for production use. The company provides the VFD panel and equipment along with a system control panel. The system was custom-designed for efficient operation to meet the needs of the user’s production system.

The system is easy for the operator to use. After hanging a full bulk bag in place within the upper part of the support structure, and routing the bag spout through the iris valve and into the bag clamp, users open the bag spout to start the flow of the material into the bulk bag unloader. They then turn on the main power to the VFD and control panels and disengage the emergency stop. With control set for auto, users can set the target weight, fast cut-off and slow cut-off set points, as well as the slow fill speed. Users press the start batch push-button to begin the automated process of bulk bag discharge, material weighing and dispensing.
