Even Flow Hopper

A loading hopper that meters product onto the line at a steady rate. Fill it with a loader over the end or sides, or with a dipping-end elevator.

HJV Engineering even flow hopper

The Even Flow Hopper turns uneven loads from a loader or truck into a steady feed. A steady feed keeps every machine downstream loaded properly, from the washer to the optical sorter.

The out-feed is a cleated endless PVC belt, 750 mm (30") or 900 mm (36") wide. Fill over the end or sides with a loader, or with an elevator whose dipping end sets product down gently. A mini even flow hopper suits smaller lines.

It's the hopper that feeds the Cyber Sort.
