How Does the Sack Emptying Machine Work?

The LaborSave Sack/Bag Emptying System operates through a fully automated process which can be configured to work alongside existing bulk handling equipment, such as silos or pneumatic conveyor:

  1. Sack Placement: Full pallets of sacks are fed into the system via a forklift or an optional automatic conveyor.
  2. Sack Cutting: The top level sacks are picked up and carried over a set of specially designed cutting blades, cleanly cuts the sacks, ensuring complete material release, without producing sack shavings
  3. Material Discharge: The sacks are then emptied into the feeding hopper for further processing while the empty sacks are compacted for easy disposal.
