Big Tip for the Future

New for 2007, Herbert Engineering designed and launched their new twin big bag tipper. According to Herbert’s it gives simple but effective discharge of produce from
big bags in total safety. They go on to state that the control philosophy features a manual start sequence and the system is protected by a Category 4 light beam
safety system. This new big bag tipper with its twin-tipping platform can readily achieve 30 bags per hour capacity. This is actioned by a two stage tipping process coupled with hydraulic “clamps” for the bags thus ensuring controlled discharge of product from the bag.

Andy Hubble, Herbert’s Sales Manager comments “Our customers have been asking for some time for a quick, but gentle method of emptying ton bags and we can now offer a quality machine which is both efficient and that ticks all of the requirement boxes”.

A major international packer in Spain who has taken delivery of four units giving 120 tons per hour insisted on the new style twin big bag tippers to cope with the throughputs whilst maintaining the steady gentle emptying of bags. Closer to home an international processor is already using this latest technology within their plant and have been extremely pleased with the performance commenting that its speed and gentle discharge has revolutionised their handling of produce delivered in ton bags.
