POWDER HANDLING & PROCESSING SYSTEMS (FIBC) Filling

Spiroflow SUPERIOR BY DESIGN, OUTSTANDING IN PERFORMANCE Spiroflow conveying, weighing, blending, emptying and filling equipment is used in every corner of the world where bulk materials, ranging from the finest of powders to granules and even lumps, are processed. For over 35 years, we have designed, engineered and continuously developed our line of equipment and systems to effectively handle the enormous diversity of products to be found within today’s process industries. Time and again, in food and pharmaceuticals, cosmetics and chemicals, minerals and plastics, our proven experience has enabled...

Flexible Screw Conveyors FOR THE DUST-FREE HANDLING OF DRY BULK SOLIDS AND INGREDIENTS ‘Spiroflow’ Flexible Screw Conveyors are just that: flexible! They can be made to convey in any direction from horizontal to vertical, they can be routed around fixed obstacles and equipment, and from one room to another through small wall openings. They are ideal for lifting materials from sack tip stations or storage bins and conveying products at ceiling height to feed a line of processing or packaging machines - as multiple discharge points can be placed along horizontal sections. The ‘Spiroflow’ conveying...

Aero Mechanical Conveyors HIGH THROUGHPUT, TOTAL BATCH TRANSFER Transfer of material takes place within an enclosed tube as it becomes entrained in the moving air-stream created by the high speed movement of disks, attached to a tensioned wire rope, travelling through the tube. In practice, the rope carrying the disks is a continuous loop running around sprockets at each end of a flow and return tube arrangement. One of the sprockets is motor-driven, the other acts as the rope tensioning device. The conveying air stream acts to cushion the product ensuring minimal break-up and separation of the...

Tubular Cable & Chain Drag Conveyors PROBLEM SOLVERS IN A PIPELINE We aim to offer our customers the best solution, we have never believed in the ‘one size fits all’ philosophy. Accordingly, as we have expanded our horizons, we have developed our conveying ranges to meet the new challenges. A cable, chain or series of pinned links with discs spaced along its length and its ends connected to each other to form an endless loop is pulled by a motor driven sprocket within an enclosed tube. Changes in direction are facilitated by bends in the tubing or by corner housings for tighter radii. Discharge...

Pneumatic Conveying DUST-FREE, TOTAL TRANSFER OVER LONG AND TORTUOUS ROUTES Although Spiroflow was founded on and has spent many years developing mechanical conveyors for a whole host of applications, we have long recognised that there are many applications where the optimum solution is either Vacuum or Positive Pressure Pneumatic Conveying. As a result, these conveying methods have been included in our portfolio for several years now. Moving forward, we have now established a new range of ‘Spiroflow’ Vacuum and Positive Pressure Pneumatic Conveyors for the European market. Vacuum Conveyors Vacuum...

Bulk Bag Dischargers FOR THE SAFE, DUST FREE DISCHARGE OF POWDERS AND DRY BULK SOLIDS T6 Integral Hoist The worldwide acceptance of Bulk Bags has brought about big changes in bulk materials handling practices to the point where even the pharmaceutical industry are using them to replace rigid IBCs. The T6 discharger is a self-contained unloading station for dust-free, controllable bulk bag emptying. It has an integral ‘I’ beam and hoist for loading bags into the discharger and is directly connected to an enclosed conveyor for direct transfer of product to process machinery. No forklift is necessary...

Bulk Bag Filling Stations FOR THE DUST FREE FILLING AND WEIGHING OF BULK BAGS FROM 100-2000 kgs Our range of weigh/fill equipment, for bag capacities of up to 2000 kgs, offers a choice of basic models designed to meet the needs of the majority of applications. These machines are modular in construction, enabling the user to specify a number of options to meet their individual production requirements – current and future. At one end of the scale, we produce Simple Support Frame Fillers for the most basic of applications where the product is non-hazardous, free flowing and dust-free. At the other...
