Keep bulk material flowing freely and reduce the need to manually break up obstructions.
Because many bulk solids – especially material with even a small amount of moisture – can easily form obstructions inside containers and chutes, Martin Engineering offers a wide range of products designed to keep materials flowing safely along chutes and through the discharge ports of hoppers, containers and railcars.
This eliminates the need to manually break up obstructions, either by poking the material directly with a stick from beneath the discharge, or by striking the side of the chute or container with a hammer, which not only can cause injury, but can damage the equipment.
Our technicians and engineers are available to provide expert advice and assistance on these products and all of your bulk material handling questions and problems. Please contact us today and let us help!
