Static Hopper

What is it used for?

TMS series hoppers, also known as “static loading” hoppers, are designed to convey and pre-dose bulk products made of different materials such as metal, plastic, granules, and wood.

They are used in a wide range of sectors: industrial, food, chemical, pharmaceutical, jewelry, and more. By distributing the weight of the parts along the funnel-shaped walls, they allow loading capacities of up to 500 liters.

They can be combined with:

Circular vibratory feeders / conveyor belts

Weighing and packaging systems

Vision inspection and robotic pick-and-place systems

Cascade loading systems.

How to choose?

You can select one of our models based on the size of your product, its weight/volume, and the required operating autonomy.

Other important parameters to consider:

Product discharge rate in tons/hour and conveying speed in m/min

How the hopper is loaded and where the product is discharged

Required certifications for food or pharmaceutical applications

The environment and industry in which it will be used

Why choose it?

  • Controlled and adjustable dosing
  • Range from 25 L to 500 L
  • Adaptability to customer-specific special hoppers
  • Certifications (Food / FDA / UL / ATEX) and detailed operating instructions
  • Easy calibration and maintenance
  • Fast delivery, including batch orders

Technical specifications

Materials and customization

TMS series hoppers are made of stainless steel (AISI 304 / 316). Surface finishing can be manual polishing or chemical electropolishing, with the relevant certification.

The inner surface of the hopper can be coated with bonded or sprayed polyurethane (FDA-certified for food and pharmaceutical use).

Non-standard hoppers or custom designs can also be developed according to specific customer requirements. The vibrators used are available in three models with IP65-rated magnets, operating at 3000 cycles/min, 230V – 50 Hz, with optional UL and ATEX certification.

Available accessories:

Fixed or variable frequency controller – Support frame – Level indicator – PVC top cover – Adjustable slide gate
