Hydraulic Drum Dumper — Lift, Rotate, and Empty Drums up to 1,500 lb Without Manual Handling
The Vestil HDD-72-15-P-DC hydraulic drum dumper raises a loaded drum, rotates it, and discharges the contents at a 72-inch height — handling loads up to 1,500 pounds from a hand-held control.
Built for manufacturing, recycling, food processing, and chemical-handling operations that empty steel, plastic, or fiber drums into hoppers, mixers, or containers without back strain or spills.
Key Features
-
1,500 lb drum capacity — lifts and empties loaded steel, plastic, or fiber drums up to full rated weight.
-
72″ discharge height — raises and tips the drum to clear the rim of a receiving hopper, mixer, or dumpster.
-
Hydraulic lift, rotate, and dump — a hand-held pendant control runs the powered cycle so no one lifts or tips a drum by hand.
-
Cordless DC battery power — runs where there is no outlet and moves freely on its casters.
