Tong Engineering, has announced the introduction of a new Stinger Hopper, specifically engineered to meet the demands of the USA and Canadian markets. This innovative new even flow hopper solution is designed to streamline the unloading of live-bottom trucks and semis for maximum efficiency and reliability.
“With our dedicatedTong USA division in Michigan, we’ve worked with many customers throughout the USA and Canada unloading crop with Stinger elevator solutions that feed our even flow hoppers,” says Charlie Rich, Sales Director at Tong Engineering. “What we have developed is a fully integrated even flow machine with a built-in stinger elevator, resulting in a complete unloading solution that can receive crop direct from trucks.”
The new built-in Stinger elevator can be specified on any Tong even flow hopper, whether it’s unloading onto a static handling line or a mobile grading and sizing solution.
“It really does transform our proven even flow hopper systems into the perfect, single machine for unloading live-bottom trucks and semis,” says Charlie. “It brings significant time and labour savings; there’s no unnecessary set-up time getting separate elevators aligned with the hopper.”
