How The CTE Bulk Bag Filler Works
Spiroflow’s cone table densifier effectively removes air from light materials. Utilizing a truncated pyramid design mounted on electro-mechanical vibrators to densify material throughout the filling cycle.
The CTE’s hanging bag design allows for quick and efficient bag filling. The bag is raised and lowered on to the densification table throughout the filling process. Forcing material to fill out the corners of the bulk bag and provide a full and stable bag at the end of the process.
1. Build a stable base
The cone table’s shape directs the product to the bottom corners of the bag to create a stable foundation.
2. Transfer maximum energy
The cone table makes direct contact with the bag, resulting in maximum vibration energy transfer.
3. Stretch the bulk bag
During the filling cycle of a bulk bag, approximately half of the time is spent with the bag suspended by its loops, not touching the cone table. In this phase, the bulk bag expands, enhancing its volumetric capacity and aiding in stabilizing the bag. A bulk bag that is both stretched and densified maintains its shape better and can accommodate a greater quantity of product.
4. Removes the angle of repose
Almost any dry bulk solid has an angle of repose, which is the angle formed by the peak of material produced when pouring a dry bulk solid. To produce a flat-topped bag, the horizontal top of the cone table pushes up a column of product every time it comes in contact with the bag. When the cone table is removed from contact with the bag, the angle of repose is flattened.
