Description
- Replacement of a simple box design chute at the end of life with an engineered transfer system designed to control the 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 a straight drop
- The 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 extending the wear life of liners.
- No pluggage or spillage has been experienced
- Benetech completed all work on time and under budget
