Side Tipping Hoppers

Side Tipping Hoppers are designed to have the contents of a trailer or bucket tipped into it from the side. The tailgate is also removeable so that it can be filled from the rear. This model has high sides on to increase the holding capacity.


Typical Design Construction

Heavy duty belts and side chains are supported by pre-formed galvanised support lathes every 4", resulting in a very robust build with a breaking capacity of 15000lb.

Belts are thick reinforced rubber (not thin pvc) and have moulded chevrons to assist the emptying of the hopper and to prevent crop slippage on the belt.

Variable speed via an inverter gives the ideal belt speed for the job. It is suitable for a large variety of crops.
