WAM Australia Introduces BA Bin Activators for Reliable and Efficient Material Flow

WAM Australia is proud to present the BA Bin Activator, engineered to meet the evolving needs of modern industry by delivering consistent, reliable and efficient material discharge from silos and hoppers.

Manufactured in large industrial series, the BA Bin Activator stands out for its innovative design, including a seamless cone and double-flanged, seamless gasket. These features ensure long-term operational safety and durability, setting a new benchmark in bulk material handling technology. 

Optimised Flow Through Advanced Design 

The BA Bin Activator is a tapered, conical device that uses vibration to facilitate the flow of powdery and granular materials. Constructed from carbon steel or stainless steel, the seamless cone is paired with a SINT engineering polymer seal featuring integrated upper and lower flanges for a secure and flexible connection. 

Equipped with one or two electric motovibrators, the system generates controlled vibration, producing a gyratory motion that is transmitted to the material inside the silo. This movement ensures smooth, continuous discharge into downstream feeding equipment. 

By promoting “mass flow” conditions, the BA Bin Activator effectively eliminates common issues such as bridging and rat holing, ensuring optimal material handling performance across a wide range of industrial applications. 

Engineered for Durability and Performance 

With a capacity range from 5 to 320 m³/h and diameters from 400 mm to 3,000 mm, the BA Bin Activator is designed to suit a broad spectrum of operational requirements. Its robust and compact construction, combined with low power consumption, makes it a highly efficient solution for bulk material discharge. 

Key features include:

  • Seamless heavy-duty activator cone with 70% fewer welds than traditional designs
  • Durable suspensions and high-performance seals
  • Wide range of gasket options, including FDA-approved and high-temperature variants
  • Multiple baffle plate configurations tailored to application needs  

Safe, Simple and Versatile 

The BA system is designed for easy installation and long-term reliability. A pre-supplied flange is welded onto the silo outlet, while specialised suspensions and the seamless gasket provide a secure yet flexible connection. 

Additional options allow for further customisation, including:

  • Suspensions for aluminium silo installations
  • A wide range of electric motovibrators
  • Fluidisation or aeration systems
  • Outlet spouts with emergency slide gates
  • Negative pressure configurations
  • ATEX Zone 22 certification for hazardous environments  

Delivering Consistent Results Across Industries 

Suitable for a variety of industries handling powdery or granular materials, the BA Bin Activator ensures controlled, efficient discharge while reducing downtime and maintenance requirements. Its advanced design and proven performance make it an ideal choice for operations seeking reliability, safety, and efficiency.
