FYL Hydraulic Discharging Machine

A hydraulic ram press designed to remove high-viscosity adhesives, sealants, inks and resins from movable mixer vessels. The sealed pressure plate applies controlled force to deliver material through a bottom outlet or plate-mounted pipeline to filling, packaging or the next production stage.

Discharge Principle

How Does the FYL Hydraulic Discharging Machine Work?

Highly viscous material may not flow from a mixer vessel under gravity. Manual removal is slow, labor-intensive and can leave a large amount of usable product on the vessel wall.

The FYL positions a hydraulic pressure plate above the material vessel. As the plate descends, a vessel-matched sealing ring contacts the wall and forms a closed working space. Hydraulic force then pushes the material toward the selected outlet for controlled transfer to filling or downstream equipment.

The pressure plate supplies the force that high-viscosity material cannot generate by gravity, while the wall seal helps direct more product toward the outlet and reduce retained residue.

Pressure and Sealing Working Together The ram plate creates controlled downward force while the sealing ring follows the vessel wall.

Hydraulic Pressure Plate

Applies stable downward pressure to move non-flowing or slow-flowing material out of the vessel.

Vessel-Matched Sealing Ring

Maintains close contact with the vessel wall to form a sealed space and guide material toward the outlet.

Machine Design

Key Design Features of the FYL Discharge Press

The FYL is built around a rigid frame, hydraulic lifting and pressing system, vessel-matched pressure plate and configurable material outlet.

FYL hydraulic ram press structure with pressure plate

Hydraulic Drive SystemProvides controlled lifting and pressing force for stable discharge of very viscous material.

Ram Pressure PlateTransfers hydraulic force across the material surface to push product toward the discharge point.

Precision-Matched SealThe sealing ring is matched to the vessel diameter to maintain wall contact during the pressing stroke.

Flexible Outlet ArrangementMaterial can be discharged through a vessel bottom outlet or a pressure-plate pipeline configuration.

Single- or Three-Cylinder StructureHydraulic structure can be selected according to vessel size, force and production requirements.

Fixed or Lifted Vessel DesignRaised-vessel or fixed-vessel arrangements can be evaluated for different plant layouts.

Applications & Process Fit

High-Viscosity Material Discharge Applications

The FYL is intended for materials that do not discharge efficiently by gravity and need positive hydraulic force for transfer, filling or packaging.

01 / ADHESIVES

High-Viscosity Adhesives

Transfers dense adhesive batches from movable mixer vessels to downstream filling or packaging.

02 / SEALANTS

Silicone & Structural Sealants

Applies positive pressure to materials that resist gravity discharge after planetary mixing.

03 / INKS

High-Viscosity Inks

Supports controlled removal and transfer of paste-like ink formulations from matched vessels.

04 / RESINS

Resins & Polymer Compounds

Suitable for dense resin systems requiring sealed, pressure-assisted discharge.

05 / PASTES

Filled Industrial Pastes

Helps move highly filled products whose solids loading limits natural flow.

06 / PRODUCTION LINE

Mixer-to-Filling Transfer

Connects planetary mixing with manual filling, metered filling or the next processing stage.

Especially Suitable When Your Process InvolvesActual discharge performance depends on rheology, temperature, outlet and downstream back pressure.

01Material that will not flow under gravity

02Viscosity up to the published 5,000,000 cps limit

03Movable vessels from planetary mixers

04Reduced manual handling and scooping

05Controlled transfer to filling equipment

06Lower retained material on vessel walls

Equipment Selection Logic

When Should You Choose an FYL Hydraulic Discharger?

The FYL is most useful when discharge—not mixing—is the production bottleneck and a viscous batch cannot be transferred efficiently from the mixer vessel.

Gravity Discharge Is Too Slow

The ram plate supplies positive pressure to move material that otherwise remains in the vessel.

Manual Removal Creates Labor and Waste

The vessel-matched sealing plate helps direct more product to the outlet and reduces manual scraping.

The Mixer Must Connect to Filling

The discharge system can feed manual filling, packaging equipment or another downstream process.

Discharging a pumpable liquid? If the product already flows easily, a transfer pump may be a simpler solution. The FYL should be selected when positive ram pressure is justified by material rheology and vessel arrangement.

Technical Data

FYL Hydraulic Discharging Machine Specifications

Standard published models cover vessel diameters from 900 to 1200 mm. Final plate and sealing dimensions must match the actual material vessel.

* Standard reference data from FARFLY. Note that the published FYL-1200 pressure plate diameter is 1100 mm while its tank diameter is 1200 mm; confirm the intended vessel and sealing arrangement before quotation. Final configuration depends on vessel dimensions, material behavior, required flow and outlet design.

Typical Process

Typical High-Viscosity Discharge Workflow

A typical mixer-to-filling workflow may use the following steps.

Move or Position VesselThe completed mixer vessel is placed and aligned beneath the discharge press.

Align Pressure PlateThe plate and sealing ring are centered with the vessel before descent.

Seal & PressThe hydraulic system lowers the plate and applies controlled pressure to the material.

Transfer or FillMaterial exits through the configured route to filling, packaging or downstream processing.

Retract & Change OverThe pressure plate lifts so the vessel can be removed for cleaning or the next batch.

Actual pressing pressure, speed and discharge rate depend on viscosity, thixotropy, temperature, outlet size, transfer distance and downstream back pressure.
