Hydraulic Box Dumpers Questions and Answers
Hydraulic Box Dumpers Recommendations
What are Hydraulic Box Dumpers?
Hydraulic box dumpers are designed for the quick, controlled emptying of bulk containers. The hydraulic box dumpers accomplish this by raising the container, tilting it at an angle, and allowing the contents to empty out.
How do Hydraulic Box Dumpers Operate?
The hydraulic box dumpers are push-button controlled to allow a single employee to operate it with maximum efficiency. The highest-capacity hydraulic dumpers can handle loads of up to 6,000 pounds and can empty these loads in less than 60 seconds. If a 6,000-pound capacity is much more than you’ll ever need and wish to pay for, smaller models feature capacities of 1,000, 2,000, or 4,000 pounds are available. All top models, regardless of their capacities, are designed to handle containers of all shapes and virtually all sizes that are in common industrial use today. Hydraulic box dumpers are available with several different dump heights as well as different dumping angles. The optimum dumping angle usually is 60 degrees, which yields a full clean out of virtually any type of material .
Who uses Hydraulic Box Dumpers?
Many thousands of businesses, of course, make daily use of boxes, crates, cartons, tubs or other varieties of bulk handling containers for products they sell as well as other items that are vital to their operation. Manually emptying the contents of these containers, especially larger ones, is time-consuming and often is inefficient use of man-hours.
How do Hydraulic Box Dumpers save time and money?
The manual dumping of industrial-use containers, in addition to being an inefficient use of man-hours, also places workers at increased risk for injury, both the sudden variety as well as the repetitive-stress variety. Yet emptying these containers is a key aspect of manufacturing, assembly and foundries. The Hydraulic Box Dumper is the piece of material handling equipment to dump cartons, totes and boxes while saving valuable man-hours while reducing significant worker injury. The optimum solution, in the overwhelming number of cases, is the use of a hydraulic box dumper.
How are Hydraulic Box Dumpers used?
In many instances, the containers to be emptied are placed on the hydraulic box dumpers via fork truck, and, because of this, virtually all quality box dumpers are designed to be lowered down to one-half inch for easiest fork truck access. The hydraulic box dumpers quickly place container contents into your facility’s material handling system and can significantly reduce your operating costs. Because some container contents are powders and other materials that include dust or other minute particles, some of the best box dumpers are self-contained, so that, during the dumping process, they do not allow these particles to get in the air and become circulated around portions of your facility. Another key advantage of hydraulic box dumpers over manual dumping is that box dumpers enable controlled dumping. Manual dumping can become uncontrolled, such as when the workers reach a certain tilt angle with a container and the contents often simply tumbles out haphazardly. This can cause damage to contents, a profit-reducing occurrence that Hydraulic Box Dumpers prevent.
