Various usage options depending on the factory situation
Pneumatic conveyance of the opened raw material to the downstream process
The discharged raw material can be pneumatically conveyed, sieved by a LINESIFTER, and then sent to the downstream process such as mixing.
Combined use of two PowOpener Assists is also possible
It is also possible to sort bags—for example, “sending flour bags to the right and granulated sugar bags to the left”—and pneumatically convey each to its respective downstream process.
