Main Product Description

Unused Hapman automatic bulk bag unloading and Helix flexible screw conveying system, manufactured in 2023, with a maximum conveying capacity of approximately 420 cubic feet per hour (CFH). Designed for unloading, agitating, dust collection and controlled transfer of compatible dry powders, granules and bulk solid materials with bulk densities ranging from 60 to 70 lbs per cubic foot. The system features a forklift-style bulk bag unloader with bag support rack, a 2 HP dust collection blower and a 0.75 HP material agitator to assist with material discharge and flow. Includes an approximately 20' long Hapman Helix flexible screw conveyor installed at a 45-degree incline and driven by a 10 HP motor. Conveyor provides approximately 10' of vertical conveying distance and 10'8" of horizontal conveying distance for feeding downstream processing, blending, mixing, storage or packaging equipment. Bulk bag unloading station is configured for bags measuring approximately 40" x 48" x 15" with a 22" x 21" discharge spout configuration. Features stainless steel product contact surfaces and an integrated electrical control panel for system operation. Requires 460 volts, 3-phase, 60 Hz electrical service. Suitable for applications involving bulk bag discharging, powder conveying, ingredient transfer, material handling and controlled feeding of compatible dry bulk solids. Unit is unused and manufactured in 2023.

• Mineral and Industrial Material Handling: Conveying compatible dry mineral granules, powdered mineral additives and other suitable bulk solids.

• Automated Ingredient Feeding: Supplying dry ingredients from bulk bags to batching, mixing and packaging equipment with integrated conveying and material handling.

• Dust-Controlled Material Transfer: Integrating bulk bag unloading, material agitation and dust collection to help contain airborne dust generated during dry material discharge.

Suitable Products and Materials

• Food Ingredients: Flour, granulated sugar, powdered sugar, starch, salt, dry baking ingredients, powdered sweeteners and compatible food-grade dry blends.

• Powdered Additives: Dry flavoring powders, powdered preservatives, functional food ingredients and powdered formulation additives.

• Plastics and Polymers: Polyethylene pellets, polypropylene pellets, compatible plastic resin granules, polymer powders and dry compounding additives.

• Chemical Materials: Powdered chemicals, granular chemical intermediates, dry chemical additives and compatible powdered raw materials.

• Detergent Ingredients: Powdered detergent bases, sodium carbonate, sodium bicarbonate and suitable granular cleaning product ingredients.

• Minerals and Industrial Powders: Calcium carbonate, dry mineral fillers, powdered limestone, granular mineral additives and compatible industrial bulk solids.

• Agricultural and Feed Ingredients: Compatible dry feed additives, granular agricultural ingredients and powdered nutritional premixes.

Material suitability depends on bulk density, flow characteristics, moisture content, particle size, abrasiveness and compatibility with the flexible screw conveyor and product contact components.
