models and dimensions


Modular bulk bag conditioner (Gimat Utility Model)

It is suitable for applications where the big bags have fixed dimensions, defined at the machine configuration stage

Three-level crushing, factory-set according to the type of big bag to be processed and the height of the crushing plate. A simplified version with two-level crushing also available for big bags consistently under 1 metre in height — a more cost-effective solution for this specific application.
