This application will be for one of Cleveland Cascades' long-term customers, with a project featuring a luffing boom Shiploader for a project in Greece.
This project will be one of the company's smaller 750 sized systems. The Cascade Chute will be designed to load Sulphur at 300 tonnes per hour and will be 12 metres at full extension, retracting to approximately 5 metres.
The Cascade Chute will feature GRP cones with UHMWPE liners for abrasion protection and dissipation of static charge. The paintwork will be finished to Marine Standard for corrosion protection along with stainless fixings.
The Pivoting head chute will include a locally mounted spool type winch, which will control the Cascade Chute’s vertical movement. The system will feature a full suite of electrical components for safety and automation including, material detection, load monitoring, position sensing, vertical travel limits and slack rope alarms.
The base of the chute will feature our flexible skirt outlet for dust suppression.
