Collecting and conveying

A new Manual Dumping Station with integral FLEXI-DISC Tubular Cable Conveyor from Flexicon collects dust created during manual dumping from bags, boxes, pails and other containers, and gently conveys the material at any angle over short or long distances. The unit features a high-velocity vacuum fan that draws airborne dust from the operator’s atmosphere onto cartridge filters. Automatic reverse-pulse filter cleaning allows continuous, efficient operation; timer-activated solenoid valves release short blasts of compressed plant air inside the filters causing dust build-up on outer filter surfaces to fall into the hopper. Constructed of stainless steel finished to food, dairy, pharmaceutical or industrial standards, the system is particularly suitable for manual dumping and conveying of food products that are prone to breakage or degradation including: cereals, coffees, teas, dried fruits, frozen vegetables, grains, nuts, peas, pet foods, seeds, snack foods and spices. www.flexicon.com
