FIBC CLEANER

A high-quality FIBC must be free from production residues. During the cutting and sewing operations required to manufacture the FIBCs, the fabric gets electrostatically charged. These charges of the fabric regularly cause the adhesion of smallest rests of yarn and fabric and the adhesion of residues of the thermal cutting edges. Also insects, human hair and even personal objects of the workers are often found in new manufactured FIBCs. The cleaning device we have developed allows for a controlled and scheduled inside cleaning of the FIBCs. The constructional shape of the cleaner ensures very easy handling. An air flow of 5,000 m³/h is used to reliably rinse the FIBCs and to remove any impurities. The air flow conveys the impurities into an easy to clean collection trough. A pressure switch controls the volume flow and a time relay determines the cleaning cycle of the FIBCs, ensuring that alls FIBCs of an order are cleaned with the same intensity. Depending on volume and design, cleaning an FIBC requires between 8 and 25 seconds. FIBCs with filling spout of different sizes and FIBCs with or without discharge can be cleaned without converting the cleaner.
