A Truck Dumper (also called Hydraulic Truck Unloader, Tipping Platform, or Truck Tipper) is a heavy-duty hydraulic machine used to automatically unload bulk materials from trucks, trailers, and container trucks by lifting and tilting the entire vehicle.
Instead of using a dump truck that tilts itself, a Truck Dumper tilts the whole truck + chassis to empty loose cargo quickly — even for standard box trucks or flatbeds that cannot dump on their own.
Main Features
- Hydraulically powered lifting system
- Tilts the platform usually between 30°~55°
- Equipped with safety locks, wheel chocks, and emergency stop
- Can handle full loads from 30 tons up to 100+ tons
Typical Materials Handled
- Grain, corn, soybeans
- Coal, ore, mineral powder
- Sand, gravel, construction waste
- Cement, fly ash, fertilizer
- Wood chips, scrap, recycled materials
Main Users
- Power plants
- Grain depots
- Mining & quarry sites
- Concrete batching plants
- Port & bulk logistics terminals
- Waste recycling centers

Features of Mobile Truck Flipper
- Wheeled / movable structure – can be towed or driven to different working positions
- No need for deep foundation pit – almost no civil construction required
- Quick installation & ready to use – can start working shortly after placement
- Hydraulic lifting & reliable locking system
- Flexible working angle for bulk material discharge
- Compact layout, suitable for limited space
- Can be relocated seasonally or between job sites
- Suitable for temporary projects, leased yards, remote sites
-
Advantages Compared to Fixed Truck Dumper
-
No foundation construction requiredSaves time, cost, and engineering work; no permanent construction approval needed.
-
High mobility & flexibilityCan move between different stockpiles, yards, construction sites, or ports as needed.
-
Lower upfront investmentNo extra cost for concrete pits, civil works, or ground reinforcement.
-
Shorter lead time & faster commissioningCan be put into operation in days, not weeks.
-
Ideal for temporary or rental sitesPerfect for short-term projects, seasonal unloading, or leased terminals.
-
Easy to transfer or resellHigher asset flexibility compared to fixed, buried equipment.
-
Works on relatively flat, hardened groundNo need to reconstruct the site for installation.
-
In short:Fixed type = high efficiency, high throughput, permanent stationMobile type = flexible, movable, no foundation, fast deployment
ZFITA developed this mobile truck dumpers to handle bulk deliveries of various materials from self-dumping trucks.
This receiving hopper is available in a variety of holding capacities and discharge rates.
It can be custom built to suit your receiving tonnage and unloading needs.
A hydraulically operated reciprocating floor moves the material to your current conveying system.
This transport system provides easy viewing, a clean surface and an efficient mode of bulk unloading.
ZFITA mobile truck dumpers can improve working conditions, increase production, and save time and labor.
Production and profits increase because of a faster trip time obtained by trucks to and from the plant.
Therefore, plant efficiency is improved due to a steady flow of material, quicker unloading, and less spillage of the product.
They efficiently handle heavy-duty trucks carrying iron ore, aggregates, alumina, PKE/PKS,
as well as grains such as corn and wheat.These mobile truck dumpers enable high-efficiency unloading of trucks
into large receiving hoppers, before the materials are conveyed to shiploading or train loading systems.
