When companies add or relocate production equipment, they often focus on electrical requirements while overlooking the critical role of properly designed dust collection ductwork. Poorly sized or configured duct systems can lead to dust accumulation on equipment, products, within ductwork, and even in workers' lungs, creating operational and safety risks. Unlike electrical upgrades, duct modifications require specialized knowledge of airflow, dust transport, and collection system design. Many facility owners struggle with questions about system capacity, costs, equipment changes, and optimal performance. The key to a successful solution is partnering with a ducting and dust collection expert who can evaluate production equipment, material characteristics, and existing system challenges to design an efficient, cost-effective dust collection system that supports long-term operational needs.
Legend Quick-Change Hopper
Get ready for the latest innovation in our Legend Line—the first-of-its-kind Quick-Change Hopper.
Designed for our 10 and 15 HP Legend Baghouses, this sleek 1.02-cubic-yard hopper is designed to supercharge your shop efficiency. Time is money, and frequent shutdowns for bag changes and waste disposal are a headache for every woodworker.
We've solved this problem with a streamlined, 4-step process:
- Position & Seal: Roll the hopper under your baghouse and seal it into operating position using the pneumatic actuators. Start collecting waste immediately.
- Remove & Transport: When full, lower the hopper, roll it out of position, and transport it to your disposal area using its casters or forklift pockets.
- Empty with Ease: Open the guillotine-style bottom door to release the waste.
- Return & Resume: Roll the hopper back, seal it into position, and continue collecting waste—no prolonged downtime.
With its 1.02 cubic yard capacity, this hopper holds approximately 2 times the volume of 3 standard collection bags—capturing the equivalent of ~6 bags of waste in a single use. For ultimate efficiency, pair 2 Quick-Change Hoppers and rotate them to minimize downtime—swapping takes just seconds!
Efficiency has never been this simple.
