Flexicon has release a mobile tilt-down flexible screw conveyor system for manual dumping and bulk bag discharging. The system is mounted on a portable base with a multi-purpose hood and an integral dust collector. This allows manual dumping from handheld sacks as well as discharging from bulk bags, transferring material to elevated downstream process equipment and storage vessels at multiple plant locations, dust free.
Airborne dust generated by either process is drawn away from the operator’s area through the dust hood by a side-mounted BAG-VAC® dust collector vented from the hood. To maintain operational efficiency, reverse-pulse air jets on a timed cycle remove accumulated dust build-up on filter surfaces, dropping it to the bottom of the dust collector for later removal and disposal.
