MINISLIT - Automatic Sack Discharging System
The Minislit automatic bag dump station is an industrial bag cutter that uses a ribbon saw system to cut the sack on three sides and prevent shredding of the package material. This bag splitter employs patented disc inversion mechanisms to grab the sack material and flip it over for full and efficient discharge of the contents.
Designed to open bags of dry granluar, bulk solids and powders, the Minislit® automated bag opening equipment is available with a belt cutting system. Suitable for multiple applications including aggregates and food, the integrated parts of the Minislit® bag cutting device can be cleaned manually or mechanically using the "Cleaning In Place" (CIP) option. This optional CIP design provides a quick and complete wash down.
The Minislit® bag splitter machine offers a bag opening rate of 4 to 8 bags/min.
To minimize wear and tear of this industrial bag splitter, the mechanical gears and guiding components are located externally, offering versatility in material unloading operations and easy access for maintenance of parts.
The MiniSlit® equipment can be integrated into an automatic bag opening process line such as our DePalSack® line.
Operation procedure:
- Deposit of the bag on a roller conveyor, positioned laterally to the bag dump station, for its introduction into the body of the machine on the screen provided for this purpose
- The presence of the bag is detected by the sensor that controls the cutting system
- The blade cuts the bag and the lower part is grasped by the inversion discs for complete emptying
- When the sensor is deactivated, the blade moves up to the rest position so as not to cut the bag in half
- The bag is directed towards the bag compactor through a helical screw and the machine is ready to receive the next bag
