The raw material intake is the gateway to your entire manufacturing process. Its efficiency, flexibility, and reliability determine the pulse of your production from the very first second. At B&K Wäge- und Anlagentechnik, we understand that raw materials come in countless forms—from bulk solids and fine powders to high-viscosity liquids—and in just as many different containers.
We provide intake systems that don’t just “accept” material but actively integrate it into your process: cleanly, precisely, and with zero loss.
1. Solids Handling: Versatility for Every Container Whether you are receiving massive bulk deliveries or small manual additives, our systems adapt to your logistics, not the other way around.
-
BIG-BAG Stations: We offer more than just simple frames. Our solutions range from basic support structures to complex discharge stations featuring pneumatic or mechanical takeaway systems. For high-throughput lines, we implement stations that empty directly into day bins to ensure a continuous supply buffer.
-
Bag Dumping Stations: Designed for ergonomic manual operation, our sack intake stations ensure dust-free emptying of bagged goods. They can be equipped with integrated filtration and waste handling to keep your workspace clean and safe.
-
Truck Intake Systems: For high-volume raw materials, we design truck intake pits for floor discharge or tipping trucks, scaled exactly to your required throughput capacities.
2. Liquids Handling: From Drum to Tank Liquid raw materials require specialized care, especially regarding viscosity and temperature.
-
Drum & Container Emptying: We build automatic and semi-automatic systems to extract liquids from barrels, drums, and IBCs. Even high-viscosity media are handled efficiently, ensuring minimal residue remains in the container.
-
Tanker Truck Unloading: Our systems provide secure connection points and high-performance pumping stations to transfer bulk liquids from road tankers into your storage tanks—fully monitored and often integrated with tank weighing systems.
3. Intelligent Combination Systems Space in the intake area is often a premium. Why waste it on separate machines for every package type?
-
Hybrid Solutions: B&K specializes in combination systems that allow you to handle multiple container types at a single station. Imagine a single unit that can process standard sacks, Big-Bags, and even drums. This smart engineering saves valuable floor space and reduces investment costs without compromising on flexibility.
4. Customization as Standard (“Freely Dimensionable”) Off-the-shelf solutions rarely fit perfectly. That’s why our intake systems are freely dimensionable.
-
Materials: Depending on your industry—be it Food, Chemical, or Construction—we manufacture in Stainless Steel, Carbon Steel, or Aluminum, and can include specialized linings like plastic or rubber for abrasive or corrosive materials.
-
Geometry: We adapt heights, widths, and connection points to fit your existing building constraints, ensuring a seamless retrofit or new installation.
5. Seamless Integration An intake station is only as good as what comes after it. As system integrators, we ensure the material doesn’t just stop at the intake. We connect it seamlessly to our pneumatic or mechanical conveying systems, transfer it to storage silos, or feed it directly into weighing and dosing processes.
Start your production with the confidence that every gram of raw material is handled perfectly from the moment it arrives at your door.
