Sack tipping station for dust-free bulk material handling

Controls Dust and Transfers Bulk Materials

The Sack Tipping Station by Gericke is an engineered-to-order solution for companies in food, pharmaceutical, and chemical industries requiring efficient dust control and material transfer. Designed for ergonomic operation, it minimizes dust emissions with integrated aspirators and filters. During the process, sacks are placed on a secure platform, cut open, and contents are tipped into a hopper or machinery. An extract fan ensures dust is captured away from the operator. With optional integration of magnets and safety mesh, you can enhance metal contamination removal and operator safety. This station handles a wide range of materials, from powders like milk and rice flour to granules such as polymer pellets and fertilizer. Offering semi-automatic and manual operation modes, it is suited for diverse processing needs. Made from high-grade materials for durability, it supports clean-in-place (CIP) systems for easy maintenance. It can be seamlessly integrated with Gericke’s other equipment, including nimblers and rotary valves, to form a comprehensive material handling system.
