Drum emptying systems


In production processes, emptying drums filled with liquid or viscous media as residue-free as possible is important for various reasons. Among others, the products to be transferred are often valuable and residues left in the containers, which cannot be used, lead to unnecessary expensive losses. The Müller drum emptying systems FD and FDXXL offer targeted support: product losses and complex cleaning processes after emptying the drum are a thing of the past.



Traits


Proven system in Müller quality

  • The system operates with compressed air, either manually or semi-automatically by means of sensor scanning.
  • The pressure is adjustable from 0.1 to 1.0 bar. It pushes the press-out plunger lying on the bottom upwards with highest care for the product.
  • The medium is thus discharged upwards and conveyed to the filling machine through the product line.
  • With small FD emptying systems, the containers can be moved freely in the room. Large containers as from 400 liter batches for the FDXXL system can be transported with a fork lift. Only the product line to the filling station remains fixed.
