Do I need dust extraction in an automatic bag emptying machine?

The need for dust extraction depends on the product properties. For the emptying process itself, extraction is not required. For example, dust-free granulate does not need any dust extraction. However, with most products, a certain amount of dust will be released during the emptying process. Some powders even release a large amount of dust. From the perspective of broad machine applicability, it is common practice to equip every bag emptying machine with a dust extraction system.

The design of the extraction system depends on the product and the type of process (continuous or discontinuous). To reduce product loss due to extraction, the extracted product is often returned to the product intake.
