Flexicon Europe, Whitstable, UK, has introduced a new BULK-OUT® bulk bag weigh batch unloading system with manual dumping station and flexible screw conveyor. Designed for easy cleaning, it automatically conveys weighed batches of contamination-sensitive materials to downstream processes. The BFC model discharger frame is equipped with a cantilevered I-beam with electric hoist and trolley for positioning of bulk bags without the use of a forklift. The unit incorporates various tried and tested Flexicon technical features, including: SPOUT-LOCK™ clamp ring; TELE-TUBE™ telescoping tube which securely connects the clean side of the bag spout to the clean side of the equipment intake; FLOW-FLEXER™ bag activators; BAG-VAC™ dust collection system; FLEXI-FORCE® lump breaker integral to the hopper; and POWER-CINCHER™ pneumatically actuated flow control valve.  A bag dump station with folding bag shelf allows manual dumping of minor additions into the hopper from hand-held packaging and containers. www.flexicon.co.uk
