Abstract (en)
[origin: WO2019087117A1] An apparatus (10) for opening a package (P) of powder/granular type product comprised of: a clamping device (12) for clamping the package when it is lying flat and orienting the package into an upright position. A puncture means (15) is configured to puncture the package when upright to break any vacuum in the package or otherwise equalise it with atmospheric pressure. A cutting blade (17) engages upwardly with a bottom of the package (P) enabling powder to flow out freely under gravity toward a chute (18) and further processing. In one form there is a vacuum operated removal chute (19) that sucks an empty bag away after emptying.
