Mobile System Simplifies Filling Semi Trucks from Bulk Bags


Charlotte, North Carolina---Spiroflow has developed a semi-truck filling system including a mobile bulk bag discharger with an integral aero-mechanical conveyor that can be quickly and easily positioned.

The mobile Spiroflow unit eliminates the need to build elaborate frames or gantries as well as the high cost of silo installation. One unit can quickly be set up by a single operator. The bulk bags are lifted into place as needed by a forklift. Adjustable conveying angle allows different size vehicles to be serviced without any loss in the filling speed offered, since the aero-mechanical conveyor's throughput is unaffected by angle, including vertical.

The system is dust-tight and can be used for sugar, flour and cement or any powder, granule or pellet transported by road. A variety of bulk bag dischargers are offered to handle a variety of poor-flowing products.

Aero-mechanical conveyors comprise a rope loop travelling through a tube with spaced discs secured to it, creating a moving fluidized air current virtually eliminating material degradation, with no cyclone or filter needed to separate the product from the air.
