Hopper B

This hopper is mainly used in combination with a box tipper to feed processing or packing lines and can act as a buffer.

Product Information

The hopper is designed to feed processing or packing lines and can act as a buffer. The hopper can be fed with produce via boxes and big bags. After the machine is filled, a moving floor conveys the produce diagonally up towards the outfeed. The angle of the floor ensures an even product flow. Additionally, a frequency inverter is installed on the machine to allow for adjustable product flow.

This hopper is mainly used in combination with a box tipper to feed processing or packing lines. The angle of the hopper can be adjusted according to different products to provide optimal flow.

On demand, a sensor can be installed to detect and control the produce output. This sensor sends a signal to start or stop the moving floor, thereby controlling the output of the hopper.
