ISERCO offers customized solutions for end users and integrator customers.

The Big Bag Emptying System presented here is intended for a regular ISERCO integrator customer specializing in the supply of equipment to the pharmaceutical and chemical industries.

The purposed solution

The main limitation of this project is the lack of precise information about the end customer and the product to be discharged. However, discussions with the integrator customer have resulted in an emptying station that meets the requirements of the pharmaceutical and chemical sectors.

The emptying station is made entirely of stainless steel. It is mounted on a mobile base frame with 4 height adjustable feet.

This emptying system integrates 3 optional devices with very specific functions. It consists of 2 pneumatic massage paddles, an ISERCLOSE, and a Clean Connect ISERCO.

The first optional equipment to be integrated into this installation is a pneumatic massage system. It assists in the extraction of poorly flowing powders when lumps are formed. These can clog the bag and prevent any possibility of emptying. The action of the massage cylinders breaks the cohesion and forces the product out of the big bag and evacuates the agglomerates that have formed. This device should not be used alone, for an optimal result the vibration and massage actions should be combined.

The second piece of equipment of this emptying station is an ISERCLOSE.  It allows a partial emptying of the big bag. It facilitates the closing of the big bag outlet sleeve. This device “pinches” the big bag outlet bag by the action of 2 cylinders, which makes it possible to reduce the outlet diameter until emptying is completely stopped and the bag is closed. This ISERCLOSE has a pneumatic control.

The third piece of equipment on this line is a CLEAN CONNECT double skin emptying system. This system guarantees an excellent seal with the big bag during emptying, which is ideal for the pharmaceutical and chemical industries. The Clean Connect has a number of special features. Firstly, it has a sealed lid with internal/external threaded connections. This allows total containment when the Clean Connect is not in use. The lid is used to limit the risk of product contamination. The Clean Connect is also equipped with a curved nozzle with a spout and 4 washing nozzles to optimize the cleaning of the equipment.
