Stacking system for a bulk port terminal
AfricaEquipment Bucket Wheel Stacker & Conveyor System
Project background
The terminal was building stockpiles with wheel loaders, which limited throughput and increased rehandling of material.
What U-win supplied
A belt conveyor system and a rail mounted bucket wheel stacker were installed, with transfer points arranged to limit spillage and a weigh scale for stock tracking.
Outcome on site
Stockpiles are built at a steady rate, and material handling on the yard is more predictable for vessel loading.
