Drum Inverters
Drum Inverters are used throughout industry for transfer of powders/pellets/tablets from a drum. Ideal for controlled “dustless” transfer of materials from drums to downstream processes.
As opposed to ‘dumping’ devices, the inverter provides for a closed and controlled transfer. METO drum inverters are specifically designed for use in “clean” areas as typically found in pharmaceutical and nutritional manufacturing.
METO Systems’ stainless-steel drum inverters, when used with our discharge cones and discharge control valves, offer the most reliable way to control the rate and pace at which powder is released and directed to specific ports. The cone and valve assembly also can be easily integrated into dust control and containment systems.
