'''Aggregate Bulk Hoppers''' are [[Hoppers]] that are constructed to a much heavier duty design to allow for the harshness of the damp , dense, abrasive products. The dynamics of the aggreagte bulk hopper holding section are calculated based on the density, angle of repose and flow capability of the product being used. A suitable design is then created using a combination of 2D & 3D software packages to ensure that we can hold the capcity you require.

'''Agitator hopper''' units are designed to ensure consistent, reliable flow of non free-flowing material into downstream conveyance or processing equipment. Agitator hoppers use a combination of design features; such as a full-length discharge trough, and continuous sweep arms, to condition material discharged from bulk bags or containers. Agitator hopper systems prevent bridging or ratholing above the take-away inlet and provide free material flow to downstream processes.

Agitator hopper

Agitator hopper units are designed to ensure consistent, reliable flow of non free-flowing material into downstream conveyance or processing equipment. Agitator hoppers use a combination of design features; such as a full-length discharge trough, and continuous sweep arms, to condition material discharged from bulk bags or containers. Agitator hopper systems prevent bridging or ratholing above the take-away inlet and provide free material flow to downstream processes.
