Drum Discharger
Model 180° Lift & Seal™ Drum Discharger's rotation system inverts the drum for maximum material discharge with unmatched control. Discharger's Lift & Seal™ System hydraulically docks the drum inside a type 304 stainless steel concentric cone, eliminating ledges where material could stick.

Nominator says "This discharger's gravity roller bed and drum locator allows the drum to self-center as it's docked to the pour cone. It can hold almost any drum size, and its pour cone has a vibrator to remove material from the interior walls."
