Hydraulic Combo Tipper

• Used for controlled emptying of bulk containers into processing lines or other receptacles.
• Commonly found in food processing for transferring ingredients or waste.
• Utilised in pharmaceutical manufacturing for handling raw materials or finished products.
• Applicable in chemical industries for safe discharge of drums or bins.
• Suitable for waste management or recycling facilities to empty large containers.

Typical lifting capacity

For this class of equipment, capacities commonly range from 500kg to several tonnes, depending on the specific unit's design and intended use. This particular unit has 'No Maximum' listed, indicating a robust design, but buyers should confirm the exact capacity with the seller.

Typical tip height

Units of this type commonly offer tip heights up to 1500mm, suitable for feeding many standard hoppers or conveyors.

Construction material

Often constructed from stainless steel for hygiene-critical environments (food, pharma) or mild steel for general industrial applications. Fully TIG/MIG welded construction is typical for durability.

Power supply

Hydraulic systems typically require a 3-phase electrical supply (e.g., 400V, 50Hz) for the pump unit. Pneumatic options would require a suitable compressed air supply.

Container compatibility

Designed to lift and tip various containers such as bins, drums, dolavs, and palletainers. Customisation for specific container types is often possible.

Safety features

Commonly includes hose burst fuses for hydraulic systems and options for fully enclosed safety guarding, which is crucial for operational safety.
