Description
- Replacement of a simple box design chute at end of life with an engineered transfer system designed to control material
- 95ft drop
- 23ft horizontal displacement
- 6 floor levels
Scope
- Design, supply and installation of an engineered Advanced Transfer System that includes the patented J-Glide Adjustable Loading Technology
- Curved design rather than straight drop
- Velocity of material slowed down and controlled
- Addition of inspection doors to improve access
Results
- The coal is center loading on the belt, matching belt speed and direction, extending belt life
- The material flow is controlled, gently loading on the belt, eliminating dust generation and now extending wear life of liners
- No pluggage or spillage has been experienced
- All work was completed on time and under budget
