Receiving hopper

The receiving hopper is designed to act as a buffer. It can either be used to feed processing lines or loading and unloading lines in storage solutions.

Product Information

The receiving hopper is designed to act as a buffer. It can either be used to feed processing lines or loading and unloading lines in storage solutions.

The receiving hopper is designed in such a way that it can be fed with produce via different types of trailers, boxes, or big bags. After the machine is filled, a moving floor conveys the produce diagonally up towards the outfeed. The angle of the floor ensures an even product flow. Additionally, a frequency inverter is installed on the machine to allow for adjustable product flow. The machine is equipped with wheels, making it easy to relocate over short distances.

On demand, a sensor can be installed to detect and control the produce output. This sensor sends a signal to start or stop the moving floor, thereby controlling the output of the receiving hopper.
