OPTIONS

TANDEM OPTION FOR CONTINUOUS OUTPUT
Uniflow 4230 drum unloaders can be configured into a continuous output system; automatically switching so material flow to the line is never interrupted. We can configure the system to operate as two stand-alone units, each with a hose running to the production line, or both machines can feed a 2-in, 1-out heated manifold..
