BFM’s New Venting Surge Hopper Provides Transparent, Flexible Bridging Solution
BFM® Global's development team has used their flexible, transparent Seeflex 040E material to create the BFM® Venting Surge Hopper, providing a new solution to bridging, which is a common problem for manufacturers processing bulk powders.
Working closely with rotary valve manufacturers like Airlock India and Gericke RotaVal, the team at BFM® Global created the Venting Surge Hopper as an innovative alternative to traditional vented surge hoppers made from steel. The solution combines the benefits of BFM’s transparent and flexible Seeflex 040E material with the BFM snap-fit system into a uniquely-shaped hopper with built-in product and airflow separation.
