Sugar bags are heavy, soft, and easily torn, so workers carrying them by hand get tired and spill material. This area also needs frequent washdowns, so ordinary painted equipment peels and rusts very quickly.

FullSharp installed a pneumatic jib crane with a stainless steel column, with a smooth surface that can be wiped clean and won't rust in a wet environment. The sugar bag clamp wraps around the bag body, lifting and rotating it into the hopper opening without tearing it.

Pneumatic Jib Crane with Stainless Steel Column and Sugar Bag Clamp

A pneumatic jib crane with a stainless steel column and sugar bag clamp at a food factory's raw material area.

Equipment installed

  • Stainless steel column: a smooth surface that withstands water and cleaning chemicals, staying rust-free in a damp area.
  • Rotating arm: sweeps from the bag pickup point to the hopper opening, with a light-effort rotating joint that needs no force.
  • Pneumatic hoist: raises and lowers with air, generating no heat and no sparks in areas storing flour and sugar.
  • Sugar bag clamp: jaws that wrap around the bag body, with grip force adjustable via air pressure to hold firmly without bursting the bag.

Benefits for the workshop

Easy to clean

The stainless steel column can be wiped down directly, meeting the periodic cleaning requirements of food production areas.

No torn bags

The adjustable-force clamp jaws wrap evenly around the bag body, reducing burst bags and spilled material.

Less manual effort

The equipment carries the bag's weight, so workers only need to guide it and line up the hopper opening.

Suitable applications

  • Sugar and confectionery factories feeding raw material into hoppers
  • Mixing areas at beverage plants
  • Warehouses storing bagged raw materials in the food industry
  • Areas needing frequent washdowns in damp environments

Consultation for your workshop

FullSharp weighs your actual bags, checks the bag material and hopper opening height to finalize the clamp type and arm reach. Our engineers also ask about your factory's cleaning process to select the right materials and coating for each part. Tell us your bag type and layout, and we will conduct a site survey.
