TELFORD SMITH Debagging Station

Consistent Material Discharge. Designed to Handle the Hard Stuff. Telford Smith’s Debagging Station is purpose-built for unloading bulk bags that don’t flow easily.
Whether you’re dealing with powders, pellets, flakes, or blends, this system delivers controlled discharge while reducing bridging, manual clearing, and dust.

Available in multiple configurations- single to quad - the Debagging Station is a smart fit for recycling lines, extrusion systems, and compounding operations where material flow matters.

What It Does

The Debagging Station allows operators to load bulk bags via forklift, secure them in place, and automatically discharge contents at a steady, controlled rate.

Pneumatic actuators and pushers shake and work the bag to prevent clumping and bridge formation. An integrated auger then feeds the loosened material into a pipe or downstream system—without blockages or interruptions.

Why It’s Needed

Standard feed bins or hopper loaders work well—if your material is free-flowing. But many plastics, recyclables, or additives tend to compress or stick inside the bag. That’s where this station steps in.

It’s ideal for:

  • Hard-to-handle or blended materials
  • Reducing manual labour or clearing
  • Maintaining steady feed rates into downstream equipment
  • Minimising material loss and dust during discharge
