Open Chute Drum Dumper


BETHLEHEM, PA-A new Open Chute Drum Dumper from Flexicon Corporation offers a low cost method of discharging bulk solid materials from drums when dust generation is not a concern. The drum lift assembly is raised electrically until material discharges from the drum, onto the chute, and into a receiving vessel. The smooth, wide-diameter product chute allows unobstructed discharge of free-flowing materials as well as non-free-flowing products containing large agglomerates.

The unit accommodates drums of all popular sizes and can discharge directly into process equipment or optional hoppers equipped with pick-up adapters for Flexicon pneumatic conveying systems (shown) or transition adapters for Flexicon flexible screw conveyors, or with universal flanged outlets.

It is fully accessible and free of crevices for rapid, thorough cleaning, and available in carbon steel with durable industrial finishes, or in stainless steel with material contact surfaces
finished to industrial, food or pharmaceutical standards.

Flexicon also produces Lift-and-Seal drum dumpers for applications requiring total dust containment.

Other equipment manufactured by the company includes bulk bag dischargers, bulk bag fillers, manual dumping stations, weigh batching and blending systems, and engineered plant-wide bulk handling systems with automated controls.
