Inflatable Neck Seal
Forms a tight seal around the bag spout to minimize dust escape and improve filling efficiency for dry bulk materials.

Dust Extraction Port
Connects to plant dust collection systems to capture airborne particles during bag filling, promoting a cleaner, safer environment.

Pallet Support Frame
Stabilizes the bulk bag on a pallet during filling to prevent shifting or tipping, improving fill consistency and safety.

Q: How do we handle the bulk bag?
A: Bulk bags can be managed using either forklifts or pallet trucks. Your choice depends on your facility’s equipment and workflow.

Q: What bag style and size do we use?
A: Consult with your bag manufacturer and Spiroflow to determine the optimal bag style and dimensions. This ensures safe storage and efficient transportation. Notably, Spiroflow has observed excellent results with Ameriglobe’s Fusion Baffle Bag, a seam-free design that often eliminates the need for a liner.

Q: How do we contain dust?
A: An inflatable neck seal effectively contains dust during the filling process. Spiroflow’s filling heads feature an inner pathway for product flow and an outer annular space for dust removal, complete with a dedicated dust extraction port.

Q: Can the filling system be automated?
A: Yes, especially when using volume-based filling. Consider options like pallet dispensers, automated bag loop release mechanisms, and industrial conveyor systems for bag take-off and accumulation. These features can be integrated into Spiroflow’s standard bulk bag-filling equipment as needed.

Q: Will the equipment need to be grounded?
A: In environments with explosion risks, it’s advisable to use static dissipative or groundable bags, along with appropriate static monitoring devices, to ensure safety.

Q: Can we use nitrogen purging?
A: Yes, nitrogen purging is an option. Instead of inflating bags with air before filling, using nitrogen can extend the product’s shelf life by reducing oxygen exposure.

Q: Do we need a bag liner?
A: For very fine products, a lined bag is recommended to prevent leakage or moisture ingress. Alternatives include coated bags or special bag seams. Proper inflation of the liner is crucial to avoid creasing and discharge issues.

Q: Is your product highly aerated? Do you have problems producing upright, stable bags?
A: If your product is highly aerated, incorporating vibration at the base of the unit can deaerate and compact the product, optimizing bag volume and stability. For challenging materials, Spiroflow’s CTE bulk bag filler utilizes patented Cone Table densification technology.

Q: Is automatic loop release and height adjustment available?
A: Yes, Spiroflow offers features like automatic loop release and adjustable filling head height to enhance efficiency and accommodate various bag sizes.

Q: Can the equipment be adapted to fill other containers?
A: Yes, Spiroflow offers a range of options for filling rigid bins, drums, and boxes/octabins, making the system adaptable to diverse operational needs.
