Our Roll-back Bin Tipper is a corner pivot tipper designed for gentle, regulated produce tipping. It is usually sold with a conveyor or small hopper to receive tipped produce.
The conveyor or hopper is fitted with a sensor system to control tipping produce flow. This system is fully automated to minimise processing and/or bagging delays.
A bin is placed on the cradle platform. The tipping cycle is activated and the bin lifts slightly to clamp lightly against the roll-back lid. Hydraulic cylinders tip the secured bin to the full tip position. The lid partially opens to gently release produce. When the sensor (on the conveyor or hopper) senses produce, the lid stops opening until produce clears. This controls produce flow and prevents produce damage. When the bin is empty, it returns to the start position ready to be removed by forklift.
The Roll-back Bin Tipper is available with a side-ejection system. This means a forklift driver can place a new full bin in the bin cradle then remove the empty one, minimising forklift movements and improving tip cycle times.
