The Hopper automates stacking directly at the exit of the dryer tunnel.
As the T-shirt leaves the conveyor, it is automatically received by the Hopper and stacked neatly onto the trolley.

The system can also process garments collar first and allows operators to preset stack quantities, for example 10 or 20 pieces. The Hopper then creates offset piles, making it easy to check the quantity at a glance once the trolley is full. This is especially useful when garments are placed directly into boxes instead of being folded individually.

What is the Hopper?
Automating garment stacking with precision, speed and flexibility
In garment decoration and textile printing, the end of the drying line often remains a manual step. With the HOPPER, Dekken Machinery offers an all-electric after-dryer stacker that automates counting and stacking directly at tunnel exit.
Developed for screen printing and DTG applications, the Hopper handles freshly cured garments with consistent, well-presented results. By combining automatic stacking, built-in counting and precise offset stacking, it helps prepare bundles neatly for the next stage of handling or packing.
With an output of up to 1,200 pieces per hour, the Hopper is designed to support efficient production while reducing the need for manual intervention at the end of the line. Its quick-swap trolley system and compatibility with nearly any standard drying tunnel make it easy to integrate into both existing and new setups, including wider dryer configurations.
Thanks to its fully electric, low-maintenance design, the Hopper offers a practical solution for printers looking to improve end-of-line organisation, consistency and overall workflow from tunnel to box or packaging area.
