Safe Operation Procedure for Bulk Bag Unloader

2025-10-24

I. Pre-Operation Preparation
1. Environment and Equipment Inspection
Ensure the work area is well-ventilated, free of flammable materials, and clear of debris on the floor. Check that power/air supply connections are secure and leak-free.
Test the emergency stop button and safety photoelectric switches. Confirm that key components such as the bag-clamping device and vibration mechanism show no signs of looseness or wear.

2. Material Hoisting
Use a forklift or electric hoist to smoothly lift and transport the bulk bag to the unpacking station. Ensure the discharge outlet of the bulk bag aligns precisely with the equipment’s feed sealing chamber.

3. Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
Operators must wear a safety helmet, dust mask, protective goggles, cut-resistant gloves, and slip-resistant shoes.

II. Core Operation Process
1. Bag Fixing and Sealing
Manually tighten the discharge outlet of the bulk bag and fit it into the equipment’s bag-clamping mechanism.
Activate the pneumatic/hydraulic bag-pressing device to securely seal the bag opening, ensuring no dust leakage.

2. Bag Opening and Discharging
Reusable Bags: Manually untie the bag’s rope.
Non-reusable Bags: Use an automatic cross-cutting knife to open the bag (avoid damaging the material).
Open the flow control valve to allow material to fall by gravity. When approximately one-third of the material remains, activate the tapping or vibration device to assist in complete emptying.

3. Dust Control
Keep the dust collection system running throughout the process. Continuously monitor dust concentration to ensure compliance with safety standards.

4. Empty Bag Handling
Once discharging is complete, secure the bag’s outlet. Raise the bag-clamping device to remove the empty bag, then close the sealing mechanism.

III. Supplementary Process for Fully Automatic Models

Use the touchscreen to set parameters (e.g., cutting depth, vibration frequency), enabling automated hoisting, bag opening, and conveying.

Sensors monitor material flow in real time and automatically trigger the tapping device to prevent residue buildup.

IV. Safety and Abnormal Situation Handling
1. Safety Regulations
Do not overload hoisting equipment or adjust moving parts while the machine is operating. If abnormal noise or dust leakage is detected, stop the machine immediately for inspection and repair.

2. Common Fault Response
Material Residue: Adjust tapping frequency or add a crushing device.
Blockage/Jammed Bag: Stop the machine, cut off power, and clear the fault. Do not attempt to restart forcibly.

3. Maintenance Requirements
Clean equipment surfaces and pipeline residues daily. Lubricate chains/bearings weekly. Inspect electrical circuits monthly.

Note: For explosive or easily caking materials, install explosion-proof modules or crushing devices as needed. Specific operations must comply with the equipment manufacturer’s manual.
