Door Demon products provide safe, single-person operation, which helps prevent employee injuries. There is no need for workers to climb under the railcars when using a Door Demon. The drive controls immediately return to neutral/stop when released, and the stable platform allows for predictable performance. The units are powder-coated “safety yellow” to provide for increased visibility, and the even-balanced weight distribution allows for safe and easy maneuvering.

 HBI Broer carries a number of Door Demon productions, including the following:

Pneumatic Hopper Gate Door Opener - Dragon

Door Demon Pneumatic Hopper Gate Door Opener – Dragon

This pneumatic (air) powered hopper gate opener is a non-impacting, continuous torque solution for safely and efficiently opening even the most difficult hopper gates.

One of our strongest units, the powerful air motor and gearbox combination is designed to produce the most torque possible at an optimal speed for both productivity and safety.

The use of continuous torque provides significant power in a very controllable manner. 

Also, unlike pneumatic powered impact units often found on the market, the Dragon puts very little strain on the operator and operates at a much lower noise level with a rating of 90 decibels.

This air-powered unit can also include powered lift and powered side-shifting wheels to accommodate traveling capstans. This helps improve the speed and efficiency of the unloading process.

 

Boxcar Plug Door Opener - Bully

Door Demon Boxcar Plug Door Opener - Bully

The Bully Boxcar Plug Door Opener is designed to open railcar plug doors without the danger of physical stress to the operator. This unit can be operated from the seat of a fork truck/lift or from behind a pallet jack. The Bully is a self-contained, battery-operated model with smooth hydraulic operation.

Just how can the Bully improve improve overall safety and productivity for your operators?

Operated from the seat of a forklift or similar fork device, the Bully power arm rotates the plug door handle from a stable platform in a predictable fashion. By handling stored energy from the recoil in the door’s handle, it keeps the operator out of danger from the door.  Since the Bully is mounted to the front of a forklift, it also prevents the operator from falling between the dock and the railcar when trying to turn the handle.

In addition to the plug door opener, the Bully also contains an arm that can be extended and used to push the boxcar door open or closed.

With a built-in smart charger and plug door power arm that rotates at approximately 20 rpm, this boxcar opener helps reduce downtime and increase productivity at your site.
