automatic blending bin

The machine was designed to optimise the process of fibre blending. It consists of a fibre storage bin and a stationary bin emptier that picks up the various fibre layers that are deposited on a horizontal conveyor, provided with intermittent movement.

A constant pressure value, obtained by means of the moving wall (optional) installed on the bottom of the chamber, guarantees the steady pick-up of the fibres from the bin. Bin fibres filling is made by means of fixed or telescopic cyclones or movable mouths.

Bin width mm 1500-4000

Bin length up to mm. 20000

(extra length available upon request)

Bin height up to mm 6000

(extra heigth available upon request)

Fibre feeding systems:

a. Telescopic cyclone

b. Stationary cyclone with or without vacuum system

c. Rotating mouthpieces

d. Movable mouthpiece

The automatic blending bin is highly recommended when the various components blending level is required to be as high as possible and when the various blend components features are very different from one another. The blending bins are usually installed in tandem process (as shown in the figure) to give more flexibility to the production line and increase its output.
