Modular big bag unloading station for various materials
For hassle-free handling of bulk materials, this modular solution ensures safe, dust-free big bag emptying while maintaining stringent safety standards and ergonomic efficiency.

Unloads and Processes Big Bags Safely and Efficiently
The Modular Big Bag Unloading Station from Dinnissen is engineered to provide a safe and efficient solution for handling bulk materials across various industries, including food, pharma, and chemicals. Its modular design accommodates diverse applications, from manual to fully automatic operations, and integrates seamlessly into existing production lines.
The station operates by securely suspending big bags using a forklift or integrated hoist, attaching them to a filling pipe. An inflatable cuff minimizes dust release during the unloading process, ensuring a cleaner environment. Suitable for both free-flowing and challenging products, it can be equipped with additional features like vibration for optimal material flow, weighing and dosing systems for precision, and extraction systems for dust control.
Handling capacities depend on the configuration, with design options available to meet ATEX standards for hazardous environments. Constructed from robust materials, it offers resistance to wear and corrosion, tailored to industry-specific requirements. The station can include CIP systems for easy maintenance, supporting hygiene and safety standards crucial in food and pharmaceutical settings.
Dinnissen provides engineering support for customized configurations, enabling you to adapt the big bag unloading station to specific operational needs, enhancing throughput and operational efficiency.
