HopperPopper Assists Bulk Material Cleanout for Railcars, Trucks

The HopperPopper assists in the unloading of DDGs and meal products from railcars or trucks by combining the power of compressed air blast technology with precise hydraulic controls. Through patent-pending technology, the wirelessly controlled HopperPopper allows operators to position a hydraulically driven blast probe in the hopper compartment, blasting out bulk material bridges and hang-ups. The HopperPopper eliminates problems that come from banging, pounding, and poking railcars or trucks, while decreasing unload times, reducing labor costs, and minimizing worker compensation risks.
