Food-grade bin activator for optimized material flow
Ensure hygienic and efficient discharge from hoppers with our food-grade bin activator, designed to minimize material residue and prevent contamination in food processing environments.

The BAF Bin Activator from WAMGROUP is specifically engineered to enhance material discharge in food processing operations, ensuring minimal residue and contamination-free flow. This device effectively uses vibration to aid material flow from hoppers or silos, making it indispensable in processing environments handling powders and granules such as sugar, flour, or spices. Constructed with 304L or 316L stainless steel, the bin activator is compliant with EC 1935/2004, underscoring its suitability for food applications. It boasts a seamless design with significantly fewer welding seams, reducing potential contamination points and ensuring reliable operation. Capable of modulating flow rates between 5 and 320 m³/h, it suits both continuous and manual systems in diverse production lines such as biscuit and pasta manufacturing, breweries, and meat processing facilities. With its low power requirements, the BAF integrates effortlessly into automated setups, using one or two OLI electric motovibrators for efficient vibration-assisted operation. Options like suspension systems for aluminum silos and ATEX zone 22 compatibility further enhance its versatility, making it a robust choice for food-grade material handling.
