Opciones personalizadas de contenedores con descarga lateral
What is a custom side discharge?
Muchos conocen los contenedores con descarga inferior, pero no siempre hay una forma sencilla de elevar el contenedor para vaciar el contenido. This is a problem that some of our customers will have, and over the past few years there has been an increasing need for a side discharge container option. En una época, una opción de descarga lateral era más frecuente en la industria, pero esa opción ya no es tan común.
Hay que considerar varios aspectos a la hora de decidir si un contenedor estándar con descarga inferior es la mejor alternativa para usted o si una opción personalizada con descarga lateral podría ser más adecuada para sus necesidades. ¿Tiene el típico problema de que no puede elevar el contenedor fácilmente para descargarlo? ¿La abertura del conducto es demasiado pequeña o demasiado grande? ¿Necesita un conducto con otro ángulo? ¿Las medidas estándar de los contenedores de tolva inferior no se adaptan a sus necesidades? Si tiene alguno de estos problemas, ¡una opción personalizada con descarga lateral podría ser la mejor alternativa para usted!
Many customers will lift their containers with forklifts to empty the container while elevated on a forklift. Other customers will make custom stands for their bottom discharge containers which is a popular option if the containers will be used in one location and not moved around often. RPP Containers understands that these options aren't always ideal for everyone. If you need to move your container around your facility, or to multiple locations, a side discharge option could certainly benefit you.
The measurement of the chute opening is also a cause for concern for some customers. The chute opening on our 45” L x 48” W x 50” H hopper bottom container is 11” L x 6.25” W. On the 57” L x 45” W CenterFlow Hopper Bottom containers the chute opening is 10.7" x 8.1". If either of these chute openings are too large or too small for your contents, we can customize a side discharge chute opening to fit your specific needs. We can also provide you with the exact chute angle needed so that your contents flow out the container at the rate that is just right for you.
Do you need different container dimensions than what we currently offer in our stock sizes? In the 45" L x 48" W footprint, we have a 50”H hopper bottom available. In the 57” L x 45” W footprint we have a few heights available: 32"H, 41"H, 65"H, & 74" H. Some customers will need an entirely different footprint, and this is where we would be able to create a custom size, created just for your use. Maybe you need a taller or shorter height in the 45" L x 48" W footprint. A recent project that RPP Containers completed was a 45" L x 48" W x 54" H side discharge container. If the dimensions need adjusting for your contents, we can work with you to find a custom side discharge size perfect for your needs.
If you have a different issue but think that a side discharge option would work best for you, give us a call to discuss! RPP Containers would be happy to help with all your custom questions and needs.
