HIGH POINT, N.C.—Jowat Adhesives wanted to find a totally enclosed dust-tight bulk bag discharger for its manufacturing plant. It found exactly what it needed in the Spiroflow Universal Type 2 bulk bag discharger. Not only does the unit accept two sizes of bulk bags, it also incorporates a bag emptying station.

“We wanted to avoid any dust contamination from the variety of resin flakes running through the discharger used to produce our broad line of industrial adhesives,” noted Mike Kuhn, plant engineer. “We were seeking a system that was totally enclosed and didn’t have seams or small holes like some other dischargers through which dust infiltrated and contaminated the working environment.”

Within two months, the unit was installed at the plant here and, according to Kuhn, has been running 24/7 and operating flawlessly. “The Spiroflow discharger is clean, operator- friendly, easy to load, compact and takes up less space than our other dischargers in the plant. Our productivity and environ- mental quality have also been enhanced.”

According to Mathias Lee, vice president of sales for Spiroflow, providing controllable discharge by volume of poor flowing materials is designed to eliminate any waste or spillage for increased productivity and a cleaner work environment.
