Botek’s Manual Bag Dump Station (also known as Sack Tip Station or Manual Bag Dumping Station) is a professional solution designed for handling 25-50 lb (approx. 25 kilos) bags of powdered and granular materials. Its fully enclosed dumping structure significantly reduces dust emission, enhances operational safety, minimizes operator fatigue, and substantially improves the efficiency of feeding raw materials into downstream processes. It can be seamlessly connected to various downstream equipment such as conveyor systems, rotary valves, silos, and de-lumping machines. This station is suitable for solid material feeding operations across multiple industries, including food, chemical, and pharmaceutical processing.
Features
- Operational Safety: Features a sealed feeding design that effectively contains dust, safeguards operator health, and complies with occupational safety and environmental regulations.
- Clean Production: Equipped with an integrated dust removal system (optional built-in filtration or connection to a central dust collection system), significantly reducing workshop dust pollution and maintaining a tidy working environment.
- Waste Reduction: Designed with spill-proof features to ensure complete material discharge into the hopper, minimizing raw material loss and improving utilization efficiency.
- Flexible Compatibility: Can be connected to various downstream equipment such as rotary valves, screw feeders, vibrating feeders, tubular chain conveyors, and vacuum conveying systems, enabling continuous feeding.
- Ergonomic Design: Optimized height and opening/closing mechanisms reduce operational fatigue and enhance feeding efficiency.
Advantages
- Feeding Hopper and Dust Control System: The feeding inlet is equipped with a sealed door and a damping buffer device to prevent accidental closure. Inside, a flow guide plate and a dust suction port are installed to quickly capture dust during the dumping process, preventing its dispersion.
- Optional Integrated Dust Removal Unit: Features a built-in fan and a filter basket (polyester filter material), which can operate independently or be connected to the factory’s central dust collection system.
- Vibration-Assisted Discharge:The hopper can be optionally fitted with a pneumatic vibrator to facilitate the smooth emptying of adhesive materials and prevent bridging.
- Safety Protection Design:The cabin door is controlled by a pneumatic cylinder for smooth opening and closing, featuring a safety self-locking mechanism.
- An internal protective grate prevents foreign objects from entering downstream equipment:A solid level detector monitors the hopper’s material volume in real time.
- Flexible Discharge Interface:The bottom can be adapted to rotary valves, butterfly valves, screw feeders, and other equipment to achieve controlled discharge.

BAG DUMP STATION FAQS
Botek bag dump stations are designed to tackle dust exposure, cross-contamination, and material loss during manual powder and granule charging. By creating a closed-loop, negative-pressure system, it contains dust at the source, ensures operator safety, protects the production environment, and maintains product purity in compliance with GMP, FDA, and other stringent industry standards.
Our stations are ideal for handling most free-flowing powders, granules, or flakes across a wide range of industries. They are commonly used in pharmaceuticals, food processing, chemicals, and new energy sectors, and are compatible with both bag (including big bags) and drum discharge operations.
Absolutely. In addition to standard models, we offer flexible configurations tailored to your needs. Customizations can include dimensions, material of construction (e.g., 304/316L acero inoxidable), explosion-proof options, electrical specifications for different countries, bag compactors, customized discharge ports, glove ports, bag slitters, and more. Simply tell us your requirements, and we’ll handle the rest.
Sí. We are a complete solution provider. Our dust-free loading stations can be seamlessly integrated with downstream equipment we also supply, such as screening systems, conveyors (screw, pneumatic, or tubular chain), mixers, disintegrators, and rotary valves. We can deliver the single station or a fully coordinated production line.
Sí. Our standard models are optimized for 25kg bags and include a bag slitter. For Big Bag (FIBC) discharge, we offer optional accessories like a bag lifting frame, electric hoist, and a dedicated big bag unloading spout. This allows one station to handle multiple packaging types efficiently.
