With the Flexicon sanitary TIP-TITE high-lift box/container dumper, boxes and other containers are loaded at floor level and hydraulically seated against a discharge hood. The assembly is then hydraulically elevated and tipped, causing the discharge hood spout to seat against a gasketed receiving ring installed on the receiving vessel or process equipment. Opening the pneumatically actuated slide gate valve at the spout outlet results in a controlled, dust-free discharge, while closing it allows partially empty boxes and containers to be returned to the plant floor. Constructed of stainless steel finished to food industry standards, the unit is offered with optional receiving hoppers configured with mechanical or pneumatic conveyors.
