The
all-new Open Chute Box Dumper offers a safe, low-cost method of
discharging bulk solid materials from boxes, totes and other containers
when dust containment is not a requirement. The dumper accommodates
Gaylords and other boxes from 36- to 48-inch on a side and 39- to
44-inch overall height. The box-container lift assembly is tipped
hydraulically until material discharges from the container onto a
smooth, flat chute that allows unobstructed discharge of free-flowing
materials?as well as non-free-flowing products containing large
agglomerates?into receiving vessels. Twin hydraulic cylinders pivot the
platform-chute assembly, with the container secured from sliding by
transverse sidewall braces, to discharge angles of 45 or 60 degrees
beyond horizontal, including a motion-dampening feature at the
termination of container rotation. The dumper is available with
stainless steel material contact surfaces, in carbon steel with durable
industrial coatings, or in all-stainless construction to industrial and
sanitary standards. It is also available with optional receiving
hoppers configured with the company''s mechanical or pneumatic conveyors
to transport discharged material to any plant location.
