ISCA - Dump Buggy Tipper

• Elevating and emptying standard 200, 400, and 600lb dump buggies into processing machinery.
• Transferring bulk ingredients or finished products from floor level to higher hoppers or conveyors.
• Used in meat processing, bakeries, confectionery, and other food manufacturing sectors for material handling.
• Facilitating ergonomic and safe loading of mixers, grinders, and other processing equipment.

Typical capacity

Designed for standard 200kg (400lb) and 300kg (600lb) tote bins/dump buggies; some units also accommodate 100kg (200lb) buggies.

Power supply

Commonly 3-phase industrial voltage (e.g., 400V, 50Hz in the UK), though single-phase options or custom voltages can be available.

Construction material

Typically full stainless steel construction (e.g., 304 grade) for hygiene and durability in food environments.

Tip height

Variable, commonly ranging from 1.5m to 3m, depending on the specific application and receiving equipment height.
