Woven bags and film tend to stay folded after the bale is opened. The material opener separates the layers and increases the exposed surface area, which is what makes the following wash stages effective.
Where it sits in the line
Directly after debaling and ahead of crushing. On film and woven bag lines it is the machine that decides how well the material washes.
Build notes
- Working width matched to the bale size and the target throughput.
- Inspection doors and guarding arranged so wrapped material can be cleared without pulling the machine apart.
