A separate hydraulic cylinder tips the platform-hood assembly and drum, stopping at dump angles of 45, 60 or 90 degrees with a motion-dampening feature.
DRUM-BOX-CONTAINER DUMPERS
Sealed or Open-Chute Dumping of Bulk Materials from Drums, Boxes and Other Containers
Flexicon's dust-free TIP-TITE® Container Dumpers and Open-Chute Container Dumpers (also known as Container Tippers) accommodate popular sizes of drums, boxes and other containers used for storage and shipment of bulk solid materials. All are offered in mild steel with durable industrial finishes, with stainless material contact surfaces, or in all-stainless models finished to food, dairy, pharmaceutical or industrial standards.
In addition, all are available with Flexicon mechanical or pneumatic conveyors, rotary airlock valves or with flanged outlets to feed any process.
Most importantly, all are engineered, manufactured, guaranteed and supported by Flexicon.
SEPARATE HYDRAULIC CYLINDER
OPTIONAL CONVEYORS
Flexible Screw Conveyors (shown), Tubular Cable Conveyors and Pneumatic Conveying Systems can transport discharged material to any downstream process equipment, packaging line or storage vessel.
DRUM PLATFORM
The drum platform is raised by a single hydraulic cylinder, creating a dust-tight seal between the rim of a drum and the underside of the discharge cone.
DISCHARGE CONE
The rim of the drum is sealed against a discharge cone that mates to a gasketted connection fitted to the lid of an optional hopper or other process equipment, preventing the escape of dust.
SLIDE GATE VALVE
Once the inlet and outlet ends of the discharge cone are seated, opening of the slide gate valve allows dust-free discharging.
New TIP-TITE® Dumpers improve dumping of bulk materials from drums, boxes and other containers 4 ways:
TIP-TITE® dumpers hydraulically seal the container against a discharge hood that mates with a gasketted inlet port on any receiving vessel for dust-free operation. Built for fail-safe reliability and improved safety, they bring newfound efficiencies and cost savings to an age-old, repetitive task:
- STOP DUST
TIP-TITE® Dumpers hydraulically raise and rotate the container, creating a dust-tight seal against a discharge hood that mates with a gasketted inlet port fitted to any receiving vessel. Pneumatic or manual slide gates control flow.
- IMPROVE SAFETY
Ergonomic concerns of manual methods can be eliminated with controlled, automated TIP-TITE® Dumpers, which incorporate features of stringent global safety standards.
- INCREASE RELIABILITY
Flexicon engineers and builds TIP-TITE® Dumpers specifically for fail-safe reliability under constant use in demanding environments — and backs them 100% with a performance guarantee.
- CUT COST
The smooth, safe, dust-free and reliable operation of TIP-TITE® Dumpers improves the efficiency of a repetitive task, with significant savings in labor and downtime, maximizing your payback.
