Automatic Drum Emptying Systems

Different raw materials require different conveying and dosing methods. We offer a wide range of conveying and dosing systems to guarantee maximum flexibility. We always design the required conveying/dosing systems specifically for your raw material. This ensures that conveying/dosing is carried out reliably, even under diverse influences, such as seasonal variations (warm/cold).

Dense Phase Conveyor System
FÖRDER_DYNAMIC Schüttgutanlagentechnik GmbH is a separate division of B&K, specializing in pneumatic dense phase conveying for a wide variety of products.
Dense phase conveying is a pneumatic conveying principle for gentle, low-wear conveying of large quantities of raw materials.

Transmitter Conveyor:
Filling of the transmitter is initiated by opening the filling and venting flap.
The transmitter fills quickly because the displacement air can escape unhindered through the separate vent opening. Once the fill level is reached (level switch), both flaps close again, with the precise closure position monitored by limit switches. The sender is pressurized with compressed air, and the material is forced into the conveyor at the highest possible density, thus achieving a highly economical conveying process. After conveying is complete, the air pressure drops and the supply air is automatically shut off. The sender is now ready for the next conveying cycle.

To achieve higher capacities, conveying can also be carried out via a high-pressure rotary valve.

Test Center
To test product destruction or conveying performance of your products, B&K has its own in-house test facility with a conveying length of approximately 110 m. This can be tested both as a sender conveyor and as a rotary valve conveyor.

Ask our team to arrange a possible product trial in our facility!

Liquid Storage & Treatment
A wide variety of liquids not only need to be stored, e.g., for feeding into a ring pipeline, but also need to be treated (heated, mixed, etc.). We offer various systems for these treatment steps, including IBC container heating cabinets, heating tanks, and mixing systems.

Heating Cabinets:
For heating liquids in IBC containers, B&K offers various heating cabinet designs. Here, the liquids are automatically pumped from the IBC container into a heating tank below, where they are heated and made available at the desired time according to the process parameters.

Technical Specifications:
• Versions: Roller shutter / hinged door
• Components: 1-2 components in IBC containers
• Temperature: Heating cabinet up to 50°C / heating tank up to 150°C
• Flow rate: To be agreed on a case-by-case basis
• Special versions: Fire protection class F60 or with sprinkler system available

Heating tank:
When receiving, for example, from a tank truck, liquids can be pumped into liquid tanks or heating tanks.

Technical Specifications:
• Version: With pump station / gravimetric inlet/outlet
• Temperature: 250°C
• Flow rate: To be agreed on a case-by-case basis

Mixing Systems:
B&K offers you complete mixing and processing systems including control systems from a single source.

Liquid scales
Liquid scales can be used in almost all industrial sectors.
These are filled gravimetrically or via pumps with special dosing ball valves.
It is often important to heat the raw materials/oils to achieve the desired viscosity.
When weighing liquids, a distinction is made between conventional weighing and backweighing.
With conventional weighing, the liquid is metered into the liquid scale until the target value is reached. Afterward, the liquid must be emptied. The disadvantage of this is carryover and the fact that the entire quantity is not fed into the process. The alternative is backweighing, in which a certain amount is always in the weighing container and the drainage system is not vented. This allows the desired target value to be drawn from the weighing container and fed to the mixer, for example. This has the advantage of eliminating carryover.
Don’t hesitate to contact us! We would be happy to plan a customized system for you.

Technical Specifications:
• Design: Backweighing / conventional weighing
• Material: Stainless steel / mild steel / aluminum
• Temperature: Heatable up to approx. 130°C (if desired)
• Products: Oils / waxes / plasticizers / liquid rubber, etc.

Fully automatic scale control system
With this system, your maintenance personnel no longer have to calibrate the weighing systems, as the scale system tests itself at an adjustable interval.

Cylinder Dosing Systems

Cylinder Dosing and Injection System
The product is drawn in metered quantities from a storage tank or a ring line via a cylinder with an integrated position measuring system and injected at a pressure of up to 100 bar, depending on the design. This is also possible with gravimetric control.

B&K Cylinder Dosing
Example: BK60/1/1-R, 60 kg liquid scale as a checkweigher with 60 dm³ capacity
