About used Box tippers

Boxes form a flexible buffer on a processing line in which flower bulbs, onions, potatoes or other vegetables and bulk products can be dried, transported and separated from each other. Wooden and plastic version of boxes are used worldwide with volumes between 500 and 1500 kg. Box tippers, dosing hoppers or conveyor belts are necessary to measure the product from the boxes onto the processing or packaging lines.

The dimensions of the box determine what type of box tipper is the most suitable. An adjustable box tipper is the best option if deviating sizes or various types of boxes are used. The correct choice also depends on the product for which the tipper is used. Fruit and certain types of flower bulbs are more easily damaged when tipped and dosed than potatoes, onions, carrots or potting compost. A tipper in combination with a dosing belt or dosing hopper is usually used for a dosed supply of the products.

Operation of a box tipper

Most bin tippers work by means of a sound hydraulic cylinder driven by an electric hydropump. Some bin tippers are equipped with a sensor or electronic eye, so that the tipper can turn on or off automatically. Simple control of the bin tipper with only a few buttons or handles usually applies here. The maximum weight that can be tipped is partly determined by the hydropump and the cylinder.
