The unit is designed for tipping bulk foods from boxes weighing up to 1,134kg and measuring 915mm to 1,220mm on a side and 990mm to 1,117mm in height.
The container platform is raised by dual hydraulic cylinders, creating a dust-tight seal between the top edge of a box and the underside of a discharge hood.
Twin hydraulic cylinders then pivot the platform-hood assembly, with dust-tight seal intact, to 45, 60 or 90º beyond horizontal, including a motion-dampening feature at the termination of container rotation. A pneumatically-actuated slide gate at the discharge end of the cone controls the flow of material into storage vessels or process equipment.
An optional, gasketted discharge gate actuated by twin pneumatic cylinders, provides a large opening with chute for the passage of larger objects or non-free-flowing bulk solids that may otherwise bridge across smaller openings, and enables control of discharge.
