Customer that manufactures bakery mixes needed a high-speed batching system for their mixers. Most of their ingredients for their batches are supplied in 50 lb. bags. They wanted to streamline the bag opening process for their blends and be able to store batches in bulk bags so that these would be available to discharge into the mixers when needed. This would avoid having the bag opening process being the bottleneck to their production of bakery mixes. National Bulk Equipment supplied a high-speed sanitary bag opening system operating at a rate of 12 bags/minute to meet the production needs of the customer. Bags were conveyed to the bag opening system by a series of conveyors and a bag elevator. The bag opening system automatically opened and separated out the ingredients from the bags. A series of screens were integrated within the bag opening process to achieve product quality. A bulk bag filling system was provided underneath the discharge of the bag opener. Ingredients discharged into a bulk bag and the empty bags were sent to a compaction unit. These fully batched bulk bags could now be stored and used as needed in their process.
