Hoppers

BlakerTech hoppers are designed to store material and feed it into your processing line in a controlled, consistent way.

They act as the first step in the processing line, holding bulk material before releasing it steadily onto conveyors and into separation equipment. This helps prevent sudden surges or interruptions in the flow.

Each hopper is built around the specific characteristics of your material, such as material size, weight, moisture levels, and required throughput, ensuring smooth discharge without blockages or bridging.

When combined with BlakerTech conveyors, the hopper works as a feed control point, keeping the downstream process running efficiently with an even, reliable flow.

Optional additions like wear-resistant liners, dust control, and tailored inlet designs allow the hopper to integrate seamlessly into your existing facility.

  • Custom liners, dust control, and inlet configurations available

  • Supports higher recovery rates and system efficiency

The Hopper Process

BlakerTech hoppers are engineered to provide controlled storage and discharge of bulk materials into processing lines.

Each design is based on your material flow characteristics, including particle size, bulk density, moisture content, and throughput requirements. This ensures reliable discharge without bridging or hang-ups.

When paired with BlakerTech conveyors, the hopper acts as a buffer, smoothing fluctuations in upstream feed and delivering steady, even flow to separation and recovery systems.

Optional features such as wear liners, dust suppression, and custom inlet geometries ensure seamless integration into your facility.

Customisable Bulk Material Handling Hoppers

BlakerTech’s bespoke bulk material handling hoppers are engineered to streamline your facility’s material flow, offering reliable storage and discharge for various materials.

Designed to handle both heavy-duty and lighter waste streams, our hoppers can also be configured as double hoppers for increased capacity, providing enhanced efficiency and reduced operational downtime in your plant.
