Custom Bin Tipper Solution
Designed for an Olive Oil Processing Facility
At edp australia, we understand that every processing facility has unique requirements, which is why we’re proud to deliver customised handling solutions tailored to our customers’ operations.This recently completed bin tipper was developed specifically for an olive oil processing plant that required a different approach to our standard bin tipper design.
The customer needed a solution that would:
- Allow bins to be loaded at ground level
- If a forklift was unavailable to load the bin into the tipper, a pallet jack could be used during loading operations
- Accommodate a specific hopper height within their processing line
- Provide safe and efficient product transfer into the receiving hopper
To achieve this, our engineering team designed a two-stage tipping system. Bins are first loaded at ground level using a Forklift or pallet truck before being lifted to the required tip height.
Once at the correct elevation, the bin is then tipped to gently discharge the product into the hopper.
The result is a safer, more efficient handling solution that integrates seamlessly into the customer’s processing operation while supporting their needs to use two types of forklifts for bin loading.
It’s always rewarding to work closely with customers to develop practical solutions that improve workflow, safety, and operational efficiency.
