In the realm of dry bulk cargo import, the MAXTECH Eco Hopper emerges as a game - changing solution that seamlessly combines ecological consciousness with unparalleled efficiency. This innovative hopper is designed to meet the diverse needs of industries dealing with a wide range of bulk materials, offering a host of functions, characteristics, and benefits that set it apart from traditional counterparts.
The MAXTECH Eco Hopper is engineered to handle virtually any bulk material, taking into account its unique characteristics and flow properties. With the potential to achieve rates of up to 5,000 tons per hour, depending on the performance of the grab crane, it significantly boosts the speed and productivity of cargo import operations. Moreover, the terminal throughput can be further enhanced by adding additional hoppers and ensuring that the subsequent handling systems can accommodate the increased capacity.
The type of Hopper:
ECO Hopper: Mobile Ecological Hopper
MAXTECH's Mobile Eco-Hopper is an autonomous port equipment, designed to receive bulk materials from ships by means of buckets from 10 m³ to 50 m³ and to unload in a controlled way and registering the weight either to trucks or to a continuous transport system. Its dust collection systems, both in reception and unloading, guarantee a practically non-existent dust emission.

Basic Towed Hopper
The Basic Towed Hopper is a mobile port equipment, designed to receive bulk materials from vessels with grabs from 10 m³ up to 50 m³ and to discharge in a controlled and weight-registered way either to trucks or to a continuous transport system.
One of the standout features of the MAXTECH Eco Hopper is its extensive dust control system. Comprising flex flaps, dust seals, dust control filters, and an air compressor, this system works in harmony to minimize dust escape during the handling process. By reducing airborne dust, the hopper not only creates a cleaner and safer working environment but also contributes to environmental protection by preventing dust pollution.
The hopper also offers multiple discharge options, providing flexibility in the cargo handling process. It can discharge materials directly onto conveyors, into trucks, via telescopic chutes, or through an ancillary Material Feeder. This versatility allows for seamless integration with different onward processing or logistics requirements, ensuring that the cargo can be efficiently transported to its next destination.
In terms of mobility, the MAXTECH Eco Hopper offers multiple travel options, including rail, static, pneumatic tyre - mounted, or powered and towable travel. This flexibility enables the hopper to be used on non - dedicated quays and easily moved off the area when not in use. It can also be positioned flexibly to suit the unloading vessel, optimizing the efficiency of the cargo import process.
Safety is a top priority in the design of the MAXTECH Eco Hopper. It is equipped with a range of safety features, such as level detectors, strain gauges, and a structural design that can withstand overload to the top of the skirt. These features ensure the safe operation of the hopper, minimizing the risk of accidents and damage to the equipment.
The hopper's robust design, featuring a top shroud and grab impact grill, further enhances its durability and reliability. This design allows it to withstand the rigors of heavy - duty use in demanding industrial environments, ensuring a long service life and minimal maintenance requirements.
The benefits of the MAXTECH Eco Hopper are numerous. Its dust control features not only protect the environment but also improve the health and safety of workers. The multiple discharge and travel options make it highly adaptable to a variety of logistics scenarios, increasing operational flexibility. Its ability to be used on non - dedicated quays and moved when not in use maximizes the utilization of port space. Additionally, the hopper's flexibility in positioning and compatibility with a wide range of materials make it a versatile solution for different industries.
The MAXTECH Eco Hopper represents a significant advancement in dry bulk cargo import technology. Its combination of ecological sensitivity, high - performance capabilities, and user - friendly features makes it an ideal choice for industries looking to optimize their cargo handling operations while minimizing their environmental impact. As the demand for sustainable and efficient solutions in the shipping and logistics industry continues to grow, the MAXTECH Eco Hopper is well - positioned to lead the way in the future of dry bulk cargo import.
