Mechanical Ship Loaders are machines for loading ships with bulk material have common design concept and function, but they often vary in implementation to correspond to:
- Spatial limitations of the quay of operation (fixed, traveling, etc.)
- Mean of receiving the transported material from silos (quay belt conveyors, elevators, etc.)
- Power supply (port electricity, own genset, etc.)
- selected dust supression solution
- Sizes of ships to load
- Desired cpacity (depends on the capacity of existing feeding conveyors)
- Up-to-date technological innovations.
Features
- Ship loaders are usually mobile on rails
- Ship loading capacity up to 3000 mtph
- Power supply via Electric cable drum
- Loading of ships up to Post Panamax size
- Bucket elevator to feed the loading boom, material received from quay conveyors
