Full description

Stainless Steel Loading Hopper for Raw Materials and Components

The DATAPHARM loading hopper is engineered for feeding various raw materials and auxiliary components into mixers, reactors, dispensers, and other process equipment.
Its design is optimized for powder, granular, and bulk products, ensuring a continuous flow and preventing contamination.

Made from high-quality AISI 316L or AISI 304 stainless steel, the hopper is resistant to aggressive media and repeated cleaning or sterilization cycles.

The internal mirror-polished surface (Ra ≤ 0.8 μm) prevents material buildup and allows easy cleaning.
All corners are rounded, and the airtight construction eliminates dust or moisture ingress into the loading zone.

Custom configurations available on request:

  • pneumatic or manual feeding systems;
  • clamped lid or inspection window;
  • multi-outlet distribution system;
  • adaptation for specific machines or dosing units;
  • vibration or slide gate module.
