Apply seasoning, spices, sugar and other coatings to peanuts and snack products using electrostatic technology for up to 45% seasoning reduction. It has been used with peanuts, cashews, macadamia nuts and many other types of fragile snack products like chips, pretzels, pastas, rice, cheese and more.
This type of spice application system can be installed on new or existing machines and systems.
Complete systems are also available for testing purposes to use on-site before final purchase. Contact us for more information about setting a test system at your production facility.
Foundries have extensive dust collection systems throughout their plants. Most of the collected dust is disposed of at a landfill. Prior to leaving the foundry, the dust is sometimes required to be conditioned to a dustless mixture before a landfill will accept it. This can be accomplished using an industrial mixer such as a large paddle mixer, Turbin mixer, or planetary style mixer.
These dual bulk bag fillers efficiently fill big bags with raw material such as sand, cement, bentonite, plastic pellets, fertilizer and more at a rate of 20-25 bags per hour. A single pallet is discharged from the pallet dispenser. A slip sheet dispenser then applies a slip sheet on top of the empty pallet before it is loaded in to the filling station. Bag filling starts with a push of a button and bag is filled to set target weight. Final product is conveyed to end of the line where a robotic forklift moves the bag to a warehouse for storage and shipping.
Gravity Flow Open Mouth Bagger used to fill fertilizer bags
A fertilizer bagging machine, such as the Gravity Flow Open Mouth Bagger, fills open mouth bags with dry, free-flowing and minimally dusty fertilizer granules at a rate up to 5-8 bags per minute (300-480 bags per hour). The bags most commonly used with this machine are an open top poly bag or a poly-lined paper bags. The bags are filled to a 50-pound target weight.
This valve bagging machine (CBE Model 250 Re-Bagger) allows for recycling and repackaging of rejected material from existing open mouth and valve bags into valve bags. It is capable of filling up to 5 bags per minute.
The volumetric auger bag filler with a high intensity densifier is used for filling bags with light weight fibrous materials such as linted cottonseed hulls, cedar fiber and synthetic fibers.
This flour bagging machine fills and seals valve bags at a rate of 3-4 bags per minute with good weight fill accuracy. Filling can be mostly dust free with this type of flour, but dust collection is still recommended. This is a proven design refined over many years to give users an accurate fill weight. It is ergonomically designed to reduce repetitive motions and have a quick fill time with convenient access for maintenance.
Air-powered stainless steel vibrating tables are used to settle solids in sludge stored in 55 gallon steel drums. The customer wanted to remove excess moisture from the solids. Upon vibrating the drum, solids move to the bottom of the drum and the moisture is separated to the top of the drum, where it can be removed before the lid is secured.
Wooden shipping pallets are shredded, ground up, and conveyed to a storage pile using a belt conveyor. An overhead self-cleaning magnet can be used over the belt conveyor to remove tramp metal, staples and nails before the material is fed onto the pile. The magnet can be designed to fit conveyor belt width and speed.
The CBE Model 730 Pressure Flow Air Valve Bagging Machine is used for bagging mineral powders, mortar mixes, or food products into valve bags with internal spouts. Types of powders can include cement powder, specialty chemical powders, bentonite, barite, sodium bicarbonate, limestone powder, and mortar mixes. This bagging machine can also be used for food products like flour and cake mixes.

Bagging System: Mineral Powders, Mortar Mixes or Food Products
The operator, or automated bag placer, spouts the valve bag onto the machine. Then, compressed air forces the powder material from a hopper above the bagging machine into the bag. When the valve bag is filled to a set weight, it drops away onto a take away conveyor.
The demonstration video below shows an open mouth bagger packaging coarse solar salt into plastic bags at full and dribble flow speeds.
Bagging Coarse Solar Salt into Plastic Open Mouth Bags
The bag is clamped onto the outlet spout of the machine. When the start button is pressed, the coarse solar salt is conveyed into the bag at full flow. When the contents of the bag get close to the target fill weight, the auger and conveyor slow down the flow to a dribble. When the target weight has been reached, the bag clamp is released and the bag drops so it can be picked up for sealing.
Curved vibrating conveyors can be used to meter, sort, or align bulk material in a processing system. The material exiting the conveyor will be in a single or double line for the next stage in the process.
In the picture shown below, the conveyor lines up 18 inch by 12 inch, 35 pound metal plates into a single file line to convey under a camera for inspection.
