What type of containers can this tipper handle?

This type of tipper is typically designed to handle specific bin or container types, often standard Eurobins or custom-fabricated containers. Buyers should confirm compatibility with their existing bins.

Is this equipment suitable for outdoor use?

While constructed from stainless steel, the electrical components and overall design typically indicate suitability for indoor or sheltered environments. Specific IP ratings and weatherproofing should be confirmed with the seller for outdoor applications.

What maintenance is typically required for a recycling tipper?

Routine maintenance commonly involves checking chain tension, lubricating moving parts, inspecting electrical connections, and verifying the functionality of safety interlocks and limit switches. Regular cleaning is also essential, especially in food processing environments.

Can the discharge height be adjusted?

Some tippers offer adjustable discharge heights, while others are fixed at a specific height. Buyers should confirm with the seller if the unit's discharge height can be modified to suit their specific application.

What safety standards should I look for?

For machinery in the UK, look for compliance with BS EN 14120:2015 (Safety of Machinery Guards) and adherence to the Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations 1998 (PUWER). Electrical components should meet relevant IP ratings.

Is installation complex for this type of equipment?

Installation is typically straightforward, often requiring only a suitable level surface and connection to the appropriate electrical supply. However, proper commissioning and safety checks are crucial before operation.

BTM/200/2700/M/G Recycling Tipper

This Recycling Tipper was a single pillar tipper designed to lift and tip a bin of recycled metals at a discharge height of 2700mm into a Bailer. The machine was manufactured from Grade 304 stainless steel and is a welded construction throughout. The Recycling Tipper was mobile on castors to allow it to moved away for maintenance access to the Bailer. The lifting is achieved by a ¾” Simplex chain driven by a motor gearbox mounted at the top of the main column.

Safety Guard to BS EN 14120:2015 Safety of Machinery Guards

The Recycling Tipper was supplied complete with a safety guard to meet the guidelines of BS EN 14120:2015 Safety of Machinery Guards. The safety guard is constructed from 40 x 40 x 3mm stainless steel box section and 2.0mm stainless steel sheet. It encloses the Recycling Tipper to a height of 2200mm on three sides with a hinged guard door on the fourth side. The guard door is electrically and mechanically interlocked preventing the machine from operating when the door is open. Additionally, the guard door can only be opened when the lift carriage is at the full down position to prevent access whilst a load is raised.

Recycling Tipper Electrical Control

The Recycling Tipper was fitted with an IP65 Steel Control Panel mounted on the main column at a convenient position to give good maintenance access under the Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulation 1998 (PUWER). Upper and Lower end of travel limit switches are positioned to prevent inadvertent adjustment or damage but are easily adjustable by trained personnel for fine adjustment on site.

The control panel incorporates the following controls; Up, Down, Guard Release, Emergency Stop and a Reset Facility. The Recycling Tipper operation is latched so that pressing the ‘Up’ push button once will raise the lift to the full tip position. Once the product has been discharged, pressing the ‘Down’ push button once will return the Recycling Tipper to the full down position. The control panel has a volt free pair of contacts which can be used to connect a ‘Call to Run’ signal if required.
