Product overview
Learn everything you need to know about Flexicon Bulk Bag filling systems.
Flexicon offers a range of bulk bag filling options, from simple stand-alone fillers to complete bulk bag filling lines including roller conveyors, pallet dispensers, and advanced automation controls. Designed to meet each customer’s specific budget and capacity needs, every filling solution is optimized for peak performance within its capacity range, ensuring maximum cost-efficien
SWING-DOWN® BULK BAG FILLER
Flexicon’s SWING-DOWN® Bulk Bag Filler is the company’s most advanced filling station, engineered for medium- to high-capacity operations. Its innovative design lowers the fill head to floor level, allowing operators to connect bags more quickly, safely, and easily. This feature makes the SWING-DOWN® filler especially ideal for systems that include automated pallet handling and roller conveyors.
REAR-POST BULK BAG FILLER
REAR-POST fillers are intended for medium- to high-capacity applications. This fully-equipped bulk bag filling station is capable of satisfying most bulk bag filling applications and can be used with systems that include automated pallet handling and roller conveyors.
BASIC BULK BAG FILLER
For operations that do not require automated pallet handling or roller conveyors, the BASIC FILLER provides a cost-effective, lighter-duty alternative to the REAR-POST bulk bag filler—while still offering many of the same core features.
FILLING STATION ROLLER CONVEYOR
This powered conveyor is integrated with the bulk bag filler to automatically eject filled bags onto downstream conveyors. When paired with an upstream pallet dispenser, it can also position empty pallets beneath the filler, streamlining the filling process.
POWERED ROLLER CONVEYOR
These conveyors can be placed either upstream or downstream of the bulk bag filler. Upstream, they typically move pallets from the pallet dispenser to the filler in a controlled manner. Downstream, they manage the movement and precise placement of filled bags and accumulation of multiple filled bags within the roller conveyor system.
GRAVITY ROLLER CONVEYOR
Typically used in downstream accumulation zones or between powered conveyor segments, gravity roller conveyors rely on the weight of the load to move it forward. They provide a cost-effective solution for passive transport within the overall system.
PALLET DISPENSERS
A pallet dispenser in a bulk bag filling line automates the process of supplying pallets to the filling station, streamlining operations and reducing manual labor. By consistently delivering pallets at the right time and position, it enhances efficiency, minimizes downtime, and ensures a smooth workflow. This equipment also improves workplace safety by reducing the need for workers to handle heavy pallets, allowing for faster, more reliable production.
Weighing and Load Cells
Integrated load cells can be incorporated into Flexicon bulk bag fillers for direct bag weighing, or paired with a pre-weigh hopper mounted above the filler. The pre-weigh hopper enables faster operation by pre-weighing material, allowing the next bag to be positioned while the hopper refills.
Controls and Automation
Bulk bag fillers can be equipped with programmable controls and human-machine interfaces (HMIs) that automate filling cycles and manage key parameters. These systems allow multiple fillers to operate independently or simultaneously, handling different products or bag types as needed.
Drum / Box / Container Filling
Bulk bag fillers can be configured to also fill drums, boxes, and containers. Other design enhancements for these applications include adjustable fill heads, built-in dust control, and automated indexing for multiple containers on a single pallet.
Pallet Jack Loading
Flexicon’s bulk bag fillers feature a low-profile design option, allowing filled bags to be easily removed using a pallet jack – eliminating the need for a forklift.
Sanitary Configurations
Sanitary bulk bag fillers are constructed from stainless steel and designed to comply with 3-A and USDA Dairy standards.Their continuous welds and NEMA-rated enclosures make them ideal for wash-down environments, while maintaining high standards of safety and operational efficiency.
Mobile Configurations
Designed with a compact, maneuverable frame, mobile bulk bag fillers can be easily positioned throughout the plant. Their portability enables flexible operation across multiple filling locations, minimizing the need for several fixed units.
Gravity Bulk Bag Filling
Weigh hoppers can be placed above a bulk bag filler to pre-weigh material before it is dispensed into the bag. This enables full bags to be removed and empty bags to be positioned while the hopper is filled with the next load of material, optimizing the filling process and enhancing accuracy.
