Flexicon has launched a new manual dumping system featuring an integral conveyor and separate dust collector.

The system will be suitable for dairy powders, pharmaceutical products and contamination sensitive bulk foods.

Designed and finished to 3-A sanitary standards, the system is comprised of a manual dumping station with surge hopper, flexible screw conveyor and support boom on a castor-mounted frame, as well as a separate mobile dust collection system that can be configured alongside or remotely. The mobile system can serve multiple functions throughout the plant, and then be rolled to a wash-down station and storage area.

The stand-alone dust collector is equipped with an automatic reverse-pulse filter cleaning system with stainless steel air reservoir rated at 99.99% collection efficiency for materials with particle sizes of five microns or greater.
