Operation:

The Aweta Box Drum Dumper is a rotary crate emptying machine that feeds products (in this case cucumbers) from crates into a sorting or processing line.

The general operating principle is:

1. Infeed: a full crate is fed into the rotating mechanism.
2. Rotation: the mechanism tilts the crate so that the products can roll out.
3. Discharge: the products are transferred to the infeed of the next machine.
4. Outfeed: the empty crate leaves the mechanism and the next crate is processed.
