CONVEYING GOODS-IN AND DELIVERIES Dense phase conveying Dust-free delivery of products to process lines is desirable for both hygienic reasons and on grounds of contaminationprotection and explosive-protection. Gericke supplies ergonomically designed sack tip stations and big-bag emptying stations with the associated supply and removal systems for the containers. BBU Big Bag Unloader® • Various designs for safe loading, filling and handling of big-bags. • Filling units with integrated scales and roller conveyors for onward transport of the filled bags. Sack tip station • Ergonomically designed...

Volumetric feeders GMS Multiflux® batch mixer • The bulk material is fed volumetrically using a feeding spiral or screw. • Agitators prevent bridge formation and ensure homogeneous supply of the bulk materials into the feeding tool. • Batch mixers. Horizontally oriented, twin-shaft mixer with optimal product flow in the fluidised bed zone. • Lower energy input resulting in gentle mixing of sensitive products with maximum mixing homogeneity. • Model series for batch sizes from 80 to 4,000 litres. Volumetric feeding Feeding capacity depends on volume transport per unit of time. GBM Single-shaft...
