San Franciscan Roaster Company - ISCA - Waste Bin Tipper

Applications & Use Cases

• Efficiently empties waste bins into larger containers or compactors in food production facilities.
• Used for controlled discharge of ingredients or bulk materials from standard bins into processing lines.
• Facilitates ergonomic handling of heavy waste or product bins, reducing manual lifting.
• Commonly found in areas requiring segregation and transfer of waste streams, such as kitchens or packing areas.

Typical Specifications

Typical capacity

For this class of equipment, units commonly handle standard 120L or 240L wheelie bins, with lifting capacities typically ranging from 100kg to 300kg.

Power supply

Units of this type commonly operate on 400V 3-phase power, though 230V 1-phase options are also available, often with hydraulic or electric actuation.

Lift height

Typical discharge heights for bin tippers can range from 1,200mm to over 2,000mm, depending on the receiving container or hopper.

Construction material

For food processing applications, units are typically constructed from stainless steel (e.g., 304 or 316 grade) for hygiene and corrosion resistance.

Safety features

Common safety features include interlocked guarding, emergency stop buttons, and anti-fall devices for the cradle.

Footprint

The footprint for a standard bin tipper typically requires a floor area of approximately 1,000mm x 1,500mm, plus operational space.
