Travelling Hoppers
Travelling
hoppers are used for transfer of material associated with short period
intermediate storage.
The hopper is mounted on a fabricated bogie provided with independent long
travel drive. A dust suppression system is provided to arrest the emitting
dust generated during transfer of material for protecting the surrounding
environment. Material reclaimed from storage yards or unloaded from water
borne vessels is discharged to the downstream conveyor using travelling
hoppers.
Travelling hoppers move on rails alongside the storage yard and unloading
bay to receive material. For regulated discharge of materials, hoppers are
equipped with feeders at the bottom.
