Big bag pallet unloader for bulk products
Efficient and reliable solution for unloading and transporting powders and bulk materials, ensuring minimal wastage and optimal flow even for challenging materials like poor-flow powders and solid granules.

Efficiently Unloads and Transports Bulk Powders
The Gericke/Indus Big Bag Pallet Unloader is a collaborative engineering solution designed to optimize bulk material handling. This unloader employs a unique combination of vibrating motors, pneumatic under massagers, and a stretch system to ensure complete discharge of bulk powders like cornstarch, talcum powder, and cement mix. Capable of handling up to 50 tons per hour, it is ideal for applications across food, pharmaceutical, and heavy industry sectors. Its modular design fits seamlessly into low-height facilities starting from 2.6 meters, while offering both hygienic and non-hygienic configurations. PLC-controlled systems enable easy integration into existing production lines, enhancing operational efficiency. Constructed with durable materials for corrosion resistance, this unloader supports long-term usage and compliance with industry standards. Maintenance is streamlined through an accessible design, reducing downtime and ensuring uninterrupted operations.
