- Self-Dumping Hoppers. Self-dumping hoppers are becoming a more and more popular option, as they allow for easy transportation, storage and unloading of materials with the aid of a forklift and minimal physical labor.
- Bins for Forklift Rotators. Forklift bins with no moving parts are a popular option in material handling as they offer convenience for limited space environments.
- Forklift-Mounted Scoops. Creekside Manufacturing’s forklift mounted scoops are an efficient solution for quickly loading and tipping a variety of bulk materials, such as sand, gravel, coal and more.
- Pettibone Dumpsters and Hoppers. Pettibone hoppers and dumpsters are recognized for their durability and dependability in material management, storage, and loading at heights.

Shear cell testers are used to measure cohesive strength, internal friction, and compressibility. To measure cohesive strength, place a sample in a cell and preshear the sample: Exert a normal stress (σ) and shear it until the measured shear stress (τ) is steady and the sample is consolidated. Next, conduct the shear step: Reduce the vertical compa...
To measure the friction between a bulk solid and a vessel’s wall material, place a sample of the bulk solid inside a retaining ring on a flat coupon of the wall material. Apply a normal load to the bulk solid so that it slides along the stationary wall material, and measure the steady shear stress. Reduce the load and continue the test. To construc...
To determine the permeability of a bulk solid, run a gas through a bed of powder contained in a cylinder. Measure the pressure and flowrate in two locations of the bed. The permeability (K) is calculated from Darcy’s Law: where u is the superficial gas velocity, P is the gas pressure, ΔP is the difference between two pressure measurements separated...
The design of a new bin takes into account the cohesiveness of the bulk solid, headroom or footprint constraints, segregation concerns, the likelihood of degradation over time (e.g., caking or spoilage), and discharge rate requirements. Three flow patterns can occur in a bin: mass flow, funnel flow, and expanded flow. In mass flow (Figure 6a), the ...
Syntron Material Handling Engineering Manager Brad Nichols recommends a rear wall angle of 60° ± 2°. 2. The hopper front wall angle must be just big enough to permit material flow. The flow rate on the hopper front wall should be slightly less than the flow rate on the back wall. Nichols recommends a front wall angle of 55° ± 2°.
