Self-dumping waste container

metalpedal

The containers of the chips and dust division are specially designed to contain large quantities of dust, chips or swarfs and are usually placed between the suction point and the vacuum cleaner itself. The traditional vacuum cleaners on the market have a maximum capacity of 160-180 liters ( 42-48 gal ) and for customers who use automatic work centers that carry out continuous work (24 hours a day), this capacity is absolutely limited, forcing them to stop the production process and empty the waste containers too frequently. In order to avoid this problem and automate the processing cycle as much as possible, containers of the chips and dust with greater capacity have been created with automatic hermetic opening and closing via pedal or remote control on request, which also allows the replacement of the container in a very short time. Although it can be transported manually on the wheels supplied, handling the full container is sometimes not easy due to the excessive weight. However, thanks to the conformation of its frame specially designed for this purpose, it can be easily transported by forklift. If it is needed to empty the contents into an even larger container sometimes positioned outside the factory, the operation is possible with only the operator driving the forklift which, thanks to the aid of a particular release mechanism, allows controlled overturning and the consequent emptying in total autonomy. By virtue of this system, the help of a second person is excluded without requiring any physical effort on the part of the operator who can comfortably remain at the wheel of the vehicle, thus complying with the regulations in force.
