Bulk filling system.This bulk filling system with a high-lift drum dumper automatically transfers bulk solid materials from drums to the machine's fill head dust-free, fills pails by weight and verifies fill weight accuracy. Drums are loaded at floor level onto a platen that lifts hydraulically to form a dust-tight seal between the drum lip and gasketed discharge cone. The entire drum carriage elevates hydraulically, then tips, causing the discharge cone to mate with a gasketed receiving ring on the filling machine's surge hopper lid. A slide gate valve A Gate Valve, or Sluice Valve, as it is sometimes known, is a valve that opens by lifting a round or rectangular gate/wedge out of the path of the fluid. The distinct feature of a gate valve is the sealing surfaces between the gate and seats are planar. at the cone spout is then actuated ac·tu·ate tr.v. ac·tu·at·ed, ac·tu·at·ing, ac·tu·ates 1. To put into motion or action; activate: electrical relays that actuate the elevator's movements. 2. , allowing material to fill the hopper with no dusting. Pails are indexed by a roller conveyor A materials handling aid containing rollers over which cargo is moved. with photo-eyes, filled by a rotary valve a valve acting by continuous or partial rotation, as in the four-way cock.
