TAB Hoppers
Self-Dumping Industrial Scrap Hoppers
Scrap shouldn’t pile up at machine stations, clog aisles, or require three people and a shovel to move. TAB Hoppers are built to collect, contain, and dump industrial scrap efficiently so your floor stays clean, your workers stay safe, and your operation keeps moving.
Available in multiple sizes and fabricated from heavy-gauge steel, TAB Hoppers handle everything from fine metal shavings to heavy punched drop-outs. The self-dumping design does the work at the dumpster, so nobody has to.
Built For
- Laser cutting and stamping facilities managing high scrap volume
- Metal fabrication shops collecting shavings, turnings, and cut-off pieces
- Foundries and machining centers with ongoing metal waste streams
- Any facility looking to get scrap off the floor faster with less manual handling
What Makes the TAB Hopper Different
A lot of scrap hoppers look similar on a spec sheet. The difference shows up after a few months of hard use.
TAB Hoppers are fabricated in-house at TAB Industries, the same facility that builds precision products for a variety of industries. Heavy-gauge steel construction throughout means no wall flex under full loads. Reinforced edges resist denting and deformation when the hopper takes a hit from a forklift or gets slid across a rough floor. Heavy-duty hinges cycle reliably through thousands of dumps without sagging or jamming.
When the forklift tilts to dump, the hopper releases cleanly without manual intervention. No reaching over the edge. No tipping by hand, and no climbing, which keeps your employees safe from sharp scrap metal.
