This is how you Empty Big Bags Hygienically New Big Bag Emptying Hopper for Top Hygiene Requirements
This is how you Empty Big Bags Hygienically
New Big Bag Emptying Hopper for Top Hygiene Requirements To empty a big bag hygienically, the emptying station has to be constructed in such a way that prevents the formation of germs through contaminants and unremoved product remnants. The emptying hopper plays the biggest role in this as it is the only component in an emptying station that has direct contact with the product being emptied. Dead spaces inside the hopper which are not easily accessible can result in product remnants becoming stuck and going moldy. If a new big bag is then emptied, its contents could easily be contaminated. Easy to clean For fields with top hygiene requirements, Engelsmann recommends the use of the newly-developed emptying hopper in a hygienic design. The hopper’s interior is free of dead space and parts that can become lost, meaning that the product being emptied cannot be contaminated by stuck product remnants or components such as screws or nuts coming loose. Thanks to the dead space-free design and smooth surfaces, the hopper can be

Highly efficient vibration screen for urea granules The hygroscopic characteristics of urea often lead to clogging of the screen cloth
Highly efficient vibration screen for urea granules
The hygroscopic characteristics of urea often lead to clogging of the screen cloth As the consumption of food increases worldwide, so does the demand for fertilizers. For these reasons, one of our customers has opened another plant for the production of urea fertilizers. He relies on the high quality and efficiency of RHEWUM screens. The hygroscopic characteristics of urea can lead to lumping and clogging of the screen cloth, which has a negative effect on screen efficiency. As a pioneer of directly excited screening technology, we understand this problem and attach great importance to screening machines with automatic mesh cleaning mechanisms. For the classification of urea granules, we use double-deck screening machines with an integrated lump screen to gently remove the lumps produced during the upstream process. We have designed 4 Rhewum wau screening machines which screen in 4 fractions: lumps (larger than 15 mm), coarse particles (4 - 15 mm), main product (2 - 4 mm) and fine particles (smaller than 2 mm). In order to guarantee a constant distribution
