Complete System Provider
Young Industries is a world leader in supplying Bulk Bag Discharging Systems. We design and manufacture equipment ranging from a single Bulk Bag Unloading Frames to a complex Discharging System with provisions to weigh, convey, and control with state of the art PLC controls. Integral dust collection systems are available to control dust during the unloading cycle and return collected dust directly to the unloading system.
Our patented Low Headroom “DFB” Unloader is uniquely designed to unload bulk bags safely in as little as 8 ft. of headroom.
We take into consideration all the variables when designing a system.
- Floor space available
- Type and size of bulk bags to be unloaded
- Available headroom
- Flowability of product from the bag
- Flow properties of the product
- Combustible properties of the product
- Discharge rate or each bag
For those situations where the powder being handled is a combustible dust, we follow NFPA guidelines and work with the customers designated AHJ (Authority having Jurisdiction) to design a system that meets all the safety issues regarding the system.
Each system starts with a structure for supporting the bulk bag during the unloading cycle. Our support frames are manufactured to handle bags up to 4000 lbs. For the safest operation our standard frames use a monorail and hoist for lifting and positioning of the bulk bag. Our standard frames are 6 ft. square with heights from 10 ft. to 25 ft. tall. When floor space is limited, we manufacture frames 5 ft. square. For higher support structures or longer spans we custom design the frame as needed.
The Low Headroom DFB Unloader is specifically designed for those applications where conventional unloading methods will not work. This system allows unloading of bulk bags in as little as 8 ft. of headroom. Stationary units or units with casters and forklift channels are available for portability.
