Speed up the reception and unloading of your bulk goods.

The receiving hopper (also known as an unloading hopper) is a handling solution designed to quickly receive large quantities of grain and bulk materials arriving by lorry and tipper. When the receiving hopper is used at the start of the logistics chain, its advantage lies in its ability to feed these products continuously and at a controlled rate to other equipment such as a conveyor, a sorting line or an industrial process.

This equipment is a solution to everyday logistical challenges, such as reducing truck waiting times, increasing vehicle turnover, eliminating manual handling (reloading piles) and maintaining product quality. The role of the receiving hopper is to speed up and improve the reliability of your product flow logistics.

Our customers use the receiving hopper in the agricultural, industrial and port sectors.
