Automatic Dosing Hoppers

Automatic Dosing Hoppers

This revolutionary new design in grape hoppers allows the user to completely dump a 1/2 ton bin in the hopper and continue with other operations, eliminating the need to meter in grapes. What is most intriguing is the fact that there is NO AUGER to feed the destemmer. Instead, this grape hopper uses gravity and specially designed fins to gently drop the clusters into the destemmer. A large gap between the fins ensures clusters are handled gently.
