ISCA - Dump Buggy Lifter Tipper

• Transferring meat, poultry, or fish products from dump buggies into processing machinery.
• Loading ingredients into mixers, grinders, or other food preparation equipment.
• Elevating bulk materials for packaging lines or storage hoppers.
• Handling and emptying food waste bins in a hygienic manner.
• Moving and tipping ingredients in bakeries, dairies, and confectionery production.

Compatible Buggy Sizes

Typically designed to accommodate standard 200lb (120L), 400lb (200L), and 600lb (400L) dump buggies.

Tipping Height

Standard tipping heights commonly range around 1000mm (39 inches), with customisation often available.

Tipping Angle

Units in this class typically offer a tipping angle of 30 degrees past horizontal to ensure complete emptying.

Construction Material

Predominantly constructed from 304-grade stainless steel for hygiene and durability in food environments.

Mobility

Often supplied as mobile units on castor wheels, typically two fixed and two swivel, for ease of repositioning.

Power Supply
