Free-flow Flap Shutter

For complete emptying

The singold free-flow flap shutter is suitable for all conceivable bulk materials and solid-liquid mixtures when the container is completely emptied.

  • Unique mechanism worldwide
  • Flap swings completely out of the product flow
  • Outflowing product is neither damaged nor altered
  • No friction or shear forces
  • Suitable for all types of bulk materials for complete emptying of containers, e.g.:
    • Cone screw mixers
    • Container scales
    • Pre- and post-containers in mixing plants
    • Collection containers under filters and separators

The lever system lowers the flap vertically and swivels it to the side of the outlet opening so that the product can flow out freely without being deflected.

The bearings and joints are located outside the product flow and are equipped with maintenance-free bearings (up to approx. 200 °C) as standard, which means that the free-flow flap is virtually wear-free even with highly abrasive materials.

The flap opens very quickly in the pneumatic version, so that the product flow is not deflected. Even with manually operated versions, large nominal diameters can be opened quickly with little effort, even under high flap loads.

The flap closure is available in various designs, materials and pressure resistances.
