Tubular Screw Conveyor with Inlet Hopper for Discharge

Tubular screw conveyor with inlet hopper for discharge of big bags. Specially designed tubular screw conveyor for emptying a big bag. The inlet hopper is equipped with a knife that cuts open the big bag when it is placed over the knife. The material then flows into the hopper and is discharged by the integrated tubular screw conveyor.

Tubular Screw Conveyor – Key Points in This Solution

• A combined solution has been designed consisting of a big bag emptying unit and a tubular screw conveyor
• The tubular screw conveyor can be used as a dosing screw when it is ensured that the area around the screw is fully filled
• The solution is compact and performs two functions:
  • Emptying of a big bag
  • Dosing of the contents from the big bag using a tubular screw conveyor
• The hopper is equipped with a suction nozzle, making it possible to extract dusty air. This reduces emissions to the surroundings and ensures a better working environment

FAQ: Tubular Screw Conveyor with Inlet Hopper for Discharge

What is the purpose of a tubular screw conveyor with inlet hopper for discharge?

A tubular screw conveyor with inlet hopper for discharge is developed for efficient handling of big bags, where both opening and dosing are handled in one integrated solution. The big bag is placed over an integrated knife, which cuts the bag open, after which the material flows directly into the hopper and into the tubular screw conveyor. The solution ensures a clean, controlled, and safe material flow.

What are the advantages of the combined solution?

The combined big bag emptying unit and tubular screw conveyor creates a compact installation that reduces the need for additional equipment. The hopper is equipped with an extraction nozzle that effectively removes dusty air and improves the working environment. The system handles both emptying and dosing in one reliable construction.

What are the application possibilities in production?

The tubular screw conveyor can function as a dosing screw when the area around the screw is fully filled, ensuring a uniform and stable material flow. The enclosed design minimizes spillage and makes the solution suitable for process plants where cleanliness, safety, and operational reliability are essential.

What is BEMA’s role in development and manufacturing?

BEMA prepares the design in close collaboration with the customer and manufactures both the tubular screw conveyor and hopper in-house. The customer receives a complete documentation package including machine drawings, bills of materials, datasheets, and declaration of conformity, ensuring traceability and easy access to spare parts for many years.

What are the benefits of a complete delivery?

A complete solution from BEMA ensures fast installation, optimal customization, and long service life. Early dialogue ensures correct dimensioning, reduced costs, and a solution that fits precisely to the customer’s needs.
