The Rheo Packout Station is designed to facilitate the efficient filling of drums to an accurate weight. After the target weight is achieved, the system automatically stops the material transfer and notifies the operator.
The Rheo Packout Station offers a high containment, continuous liner solution for safely packing off powder into drums.
Transfer the powder into the receiving drum.
Create v-neck and close off with a zip tie. Draw the Continuous Liner into a new receiving drum.
Transfer powder into the new receiving drum.
Rheo’s optional EasyClamp provides a hands free and fast release of the Continuous Liner as the next portion of liner needs to be pulled down. This option improves operator efficiency and reduces the risk of incorrect placement of a manual clamp system.
For systems that include the integrated weighing module, Rheo offers an automated dosing control system that uses the gain in weight feedback signal from the weighing system to control the on-board dosing device. This allows the operator to automatically pack-off to a particular weigh set-point. Rheo offers several configurations of the automated pack-out station.
Some models come with an integrated weighing module. This allows the operator to check the final weight of the packed-off drum . This weight reading can then be sent to an on-board label printer if that option is selected.
The Rheo Packout Station can be equipped with a closed sampling device to pull product samples from the powder stream.
The Rheo Packout Station has a portable frame structure that can be easily transported into position under the application discharge pipe. Most systems offer fork-lift pockets to allow for easy long-distance transport using a fork lift or pallet truck.
Rheo is able to do full mock-ups as well as containment performance verification in our Rheo Testing Center. Partner with our engineering team and we can produce a prototype system for your application and verify performance to build confidence in the implementation phase.
