Abstract: A bulk bag conditioner assembly is disclosed herein. The assembly includes a frame assembly defining a bulk bag conditioning area. The frame assembly includes a first carrier frame with a first ram, and a second carrier frame with a second ram. A first actuator assembly includes a first end fixed to the first carrier frame and a second end fixed to the second carrier frame. A second actuator assembly includes a first end fixed to the first carrier frame and a second end fixed to the second carrier frame. A control unit is configured to simultaneously drive the first ram and the second ram linearly towards each other to engage a bulk bag within the bulk bag conditioning area.

Abstract: A drag conveyor assembly is disclosed that allows for improved functionality and connectivity to form an endless loop. The assembly includes a traction element and a plurality of slugs fixedly attached to the traction element. When any one of the slugs is split, each split slug section of the slug remains fixedly attached to the traction element. In one embodiment, each slug of the plurality of slugs includes a cutting groove. A ferrule pair is provided to attach each slug to the traction element. The cutting grooves facilitate a cutting or slicing process to split the slug into split slug sections.

Abstract: A sprocket tip for a sprocket assembly is disclosed. The sprocket tip includes a body defining at least one circumferential end face forming an engagement face configured to drivingly engage a traction system. A void is defined on an internal face of the body defined on an underside of the at least one circumferential end face.
