Stainless-steel model for clean environments

We can offer this drum tipper in stainless steel, suitable for clean rooms and good manufacturing practice (GMP) areas. Our stainless steel models are made from 304-grade material, and the finish is smooth and clean thanks to our modern vibratory polishing methods. We use nickel/chrome-plated hydraulic rams on these versions of the drum rotator.
