Q: How do we handle the bulk bag?
A: Bulk bags can be handled using either the pallet or the bag loops. Using the pallet is ideal for transport or when moving the bag with a forklift, providing stability for heavier loads. Alternatively, handling by the bag loops is effective during the filling or emptying processes, allowing for precise positioning with equipment like hoists or cranes.

Q: What bag style and size do we use?
A: It’s recommended to consult both your bag manufacturer and Spiroflow to determine the appropriate bag style and size. The goal is to optimize the bag’s volume for safe storage and transport.

Q: How do we contain dust during filling?
A: An inflatable neck seal effectively contains dust during the filling process. All Spiroflow filling heads feature an inner product flow path and an outer annulus for dust evacuation, complemented by a dust extraction port.

Q: Can the filling system be automated?
A: Yes. If filling by weight or volume, options such as pallet dispensers, automatic bag loop release, bag take-off, and accumulation conveyors should be considered. These features can be integrated into standard Spiroflow bulk bag-filling equipment, either initially or as future upgrades.

Q: Will the equipment need to be grounded?
A: In areas posing an explosion risk, it’s advisable to use static dissipative or groundable bags, along with a suitable static monitoring device, to ensure safety.

Q: Can we use nitrogen purging?
A: Yes. Instead of inflating the bag with air before filling, nitrogen can increase product shelf life by reducing oxidation.

Q: Do we need a bag liner?
A: A liner can prevent leakage or moisture ingress for very fine products. Alternatives include coated bags or special bag seams. Inflating the liner correctly is crucial to avoid creasing and subsequent discharge problems.

Q: Is your product highly aerated? Do you have problems producing upright, stable bags?
A: For highly aerated powders, vibration at the unit’s base can deaerate and compact the product, optimizing bag volume and forming a safe, stable load. The CTE bulk bag filler employs Spiroflow’s patented Cone Table densification specifically for such materials.

Q: Is automatic loop release and height adjustment available?
A: Yes. Automatic loop release is a useful labor-saving option for pallet-loaded bags. Additionally, powered height adjustment is recommended when filling different-sized bulk bags to expedite the filling process.
