Asmall-diameter rotating agitator along the bottom of the hopper promotesuniform discharge through an adjustable screen that spans a gap alongthe hopper bottom.The conveyors employed are able to move both free- and non-free-flowingmaterials, including products that pack, cake, smear or degrade, with noseparation of blended products such as seed mixes and spice blends,regardless of disparities in bulk density or particle size.Suitable for food and other sanitary applications, the system featuresall-stainless construction including motors and vibrators, andquick-disconnect fittings for thorough, rapid wash down.
