PROJECT NAME: WOOD CHIP CONVEYOR SYSTEM FOR LOADING ONTO VEHICLES
- The system enabled the client to achieve a designed capacity loading goods onto vehicle of 350 tons/hour.
- Eliminated the need for loaders, reducing equipment operating costs at the storage yard by 40%, and increased safety during wood chip yard operations and exploitation.
PROJECT REQUIREMENTS:
- Increase the capacity of loading wood chip onto vehicles from 100 tons/hour to 350 tons/hour, reduce existing operational costs (using loaders and bulldozers).
- Provide a mechanism to load materials onto vehicles that is easy, effective, and safer.
TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS:
- The conveyor system was designed with an integrated hopper.
- The hopper system allowed the bulldozer to climb on without affecting the structure or rigidity of the conveyor, giving clients more control over the loading wood chip onto vehicles process.
