The information reported here is furnished by the manufacturers; no product endorsement is intended. PBE Bin Unloader Bin unloader bolts to the bottom of a 3-foot hopper flange and forms a transition from the hopper to an agitated discharger, promoting dis- charge from the hopper of poor-flowing bulk material, including PVC compound, regrind, and coarse sawdust. Unloader's horizontal powered discharge paddle shaft extends the length of the unloader for even and uniform material discharge. Unloader is constructed of carbon steel with an epoxy-coated interior and exterior. Unloader features a completely enclosed OSHA drive guard, shaft bearings and seals on each end, and an 18-inch-diameter access door with a safety switch.
