Solving Static Electricity Issues in Seed Packaging with a Z-Type Bucket Elevator

One of our clients, a seed packaging facility based in Sydney, recently integrated a Z-type bucket elevator into their production line. The elevator is designed to handle various types of seeds, streamlining their packaging process and improving efficiency. However, after some time using the equipment, the client encountered a common issue related to the nature of the seeds—static electricity. The Challenge: Static Electricity and Seed Buildup Seeds can develop a certain level of static charge, which causes them to adhere to surfaces inside the elevator, especially under the horizontal PU baffles. This results in the accumulation of seed particles that can hinder the smooth operation of the equipment and create the need for frequent maintenance. The Solution: Regular Cleaning and Non-Static Baffles To address this issue, we recommended two key solutions: These adjustments have helped our client maintain smoother operations, reducing the impact of static electricity on their packaging process. If you’re encountering similar issues with static in your seed packaging operations, these simple yet effective solutions may help optimize your machinery and ensure a more reliable workflow.
