What type of bins can this equipment handle?

This specific unit is designed for 1000-litre bins. Hydraulic tippers are typically configured to handle standard Eurobins, tote bins, or custom containers, so buyers should confirm compatibility with their existing bins.

Is a hydraulic power pack included?

This listing indicates the tipper would be powered via a hydraulic power pack. Buyers should confirm with the seller whether the power pack is included or needs to be sourced separately.

What are the typical installation requirements?

Installation typically requires a stable, level floor, access to a suitable electrical supply for the hydraulic power pack, and sufficient overhead clearance for the tipping operation. Footprint and height dimensions should be confirmed with the seller.

How is product discharge controlled?

This unit features a clamping chute and a 'Trouser Leg Chute' for directed, split discharge. Other units may offer single-stream discharge, vibratory assistance, or adjustable flow control mechanisms.

What maintenance is typically required?

Routine maintenance for hydraulic tippers generally involves checking hydraulic fluid levels, inspecting hoses and seals for wear, lubricating pivot points, and ensuring all safety interlocks are functioning correctly. Stainless steel construction simplifies cleaning.

Hydraulic Tipper for 1000 Litre Bins

This Hydraulic Tipper is designed to lift and tip a 1000 Litre Bin at a height of 1000mm and has a Safe Working Load of 1000 Kgs. The Hydraulic Tipper is constructed from Grade 304 stainless steel and is a fully TIG welded construction throughout. This Hydraulic Tipper would be powered via a hydraulic powerpack and would tip the container by the extension of a pair of stainless steel hydraulic cylinders to an angle of 30 degrees past the horizontal. The hydraulic cylinders are fitted with hydraulic fuses to prevent the bin from falling in the unlikely event of a hose failure.

Prior to tipping bins it was necessary for the plastic bin liner to be pulled out over the edge of the bin on all four sides. The bin would then be loaded to the Hydraulic Tipper and when the ‘UP’ pushbutton is depressed the tipping chute is hydraulically clamped down to make a near seal around the top edge of the bin. This chute then creates a pouring spout to direct the produce being tipped into two streams through the ‘Trouser Leg Chute’ and into the tote bins. The bottom of the plastic liner was retained in the bottom of the bin by a set of 4 off probes which were lowered into the bin prior to tipping commencing.

Safety Guard To PD 5304 Safety of Machinery

The safety guard is constructed from 40 x 40 x 3mm stainless steel box section and 3mm wire, 40mm aperture stainless steel weld mesh to meet the requirements of PD 5304 Safety of Machinery. It would enclose the Hydraulic Tipper to a height of 2200mm on two sides, 1000mm at the front with a hinged door on the fourth side. The guard door is electrically and mechanically interlocked preventing the Hydraulic Tipper from operating with the door open. In addition, the guard door can only be opened when the lifting carriage is at the full down position.

Hydraulic Tipper Application Story

This Hydraulic Tipper was used to decant a 1000 Litre Bin of Tomato Juice into 200 Litre Tote Bins to be loaded into cooking vessels. The Plastic Bin Liner was clamped and the bag retaining probes were lowered into the bin before tipping. The product was tipped through a dividing chute and into tote bins mounted below.

Applications & Use Cases

Transferring bulk ingredients from large bins into processing lines.
Loading raw materials into mixers, grinders, or other food processing machinery.
Discharging finished products from storage bins into packaging equipment.
Handling and emptying waste bins in food production environments.
Feeding ingredients into batch cooking or blending systems.

Typical Specifications

Typical bin capacity: This unit is designed for 1000-litre bins; other hydraulic tippers commonly handle capacities ranging from 200 to 2000 litres.
Safe Working Load (SWL): This unit has an SWL of 1000 Kgs; for this class of equipment, SWLs typically range from 500 Kgs to 2500 Kgs.
Tipping height: This unit tips at 1000mm; common tipping heights for similar equipment range from 800mm to 3000mm, depending on the receiving equipment.
Construction material: This unit is constructed from Grade 304 stainless steel; Grade 316 stainless steel is also commonly used for enhanced corrosion resistance.
Power supply: Typically powered by a separate hydraulic power pack, requiring a 3-phase electrical supply (e.g., 400V, 50Hz).
Safety features: Units of this type commonly include hydraulic fuses, safety guarding (e.g., to PD 5304 standards), and interlocked access gates.
Tipping angle: This unit tips to 30 degrees past horizontal; typical tipping angles for full discharge range from 120 to 150 degrees from the vertical.
