Description
For those applications where there is minimal headroom, Young Industries offers our “DFB” Low Headroom Direct from Bag Unloader. This system uses a bag lifting bracket that is taken by forklift to the bulk bag. The bag is attached to the bracket and taken to the “DFB” Unloader. It is placed on the “DFB” mast. The mast is powered by a Pneumatic cylinder to raise and lower the bag as needed during the unloading cycle. This system is used for applications where as little as 8 ft. is available to unload bags.
Conveying Systems
The “DFB” Unloader can be equipped with any of our Pneumatic, Mechanical, and Stinger Conveying Systems to deliver material from the bulk bag to the process. When accurate weighing is needed, Young Industries “DFB” Unloader can be supplied with load cells with Gravimetric metering systems.
Bag Clamping Systems
For some systems, clamping the bag spout for a dust tight seal to the process below is preferred. Young Industries offers pneumatically operated clamping systems. We have several different configurations for use with our bulk bag unloading systems.
