Drum presses and big bag presses
How to get the maximum out
Whether after transport or after prolonged storage, what arrives in big bags or drums is often anything but free-flowing: instead of loose powder you find compacted, caked masses. A pressing machine is needed so that caked drums and big bags, or those that have set into a solid block, can be emptied. rubitec ag offers versatile drum presses and big bag presses for this purpose, whose hydraulically driven pressing arms apply high force to the container and so loosen the contents effectively.
Drum and big bag presses: mechanical support for solidified powders
Even small temperature fluctuations can cause sensitive powders to harden. Simply tipping them out or loosening them by hand is then often no longer enough. Our drum presses bring controlled movement into the container, evenly and with no product loss. The pressing mechanism applies targeted pressure to the container, so that even heavily compacted material can be loosened again.
These innovative solutions are also used when emptying big bags: our big bag presses are ideal for poorly flowing or lumpy bulk materials. The pressing function therefore increases process reliability, whether as a standalone unit or integrated into a big bag station.

You have the container – we have the right solution: presses from rubitec ag.
The drum presses from RUBITEC can be used flexibly and adapted individually, on request also in a GMP design or with ATEX certification. They can therefore be integrated into existing workflows without difficulty, from the control concept through documentation to communication with the higher-level PCS. Depending on the application, you can also combine our presses with other containment systems and components, for example with the big bag emptying station.
