Introduction

Comet’s Flo-Thru Hoppers are ideal for storing and transporting both dry bulk material and finished product. Gaylords are dumped into the unit via our PowerMaxx, or material can be vacuumed into the units from storage bins. Hopper capacities range from 10 cubic feet to 150 cubic feet. Comet will design and manufacture Flo-Thru Hoppers to meet custom specifications for capacity, angle, material, and discharge.
