CCL have had the pleasure of working in Huelva recently, completing the installation of a FFT system ready to load copper concentrate at up to 1800tph from a luffing Boom Shiploader.

The CCL team plan to return to complete cold and hot commissioning of the system in the very near future.
 
Below, the painted steel tubes can be seen in the workshop where the lining process is underway. Each of the tubes running faces are being lined with sintered alumina ceramic tiles. This is a manual process that requires time and skill to ensure a professional finish. Cleveland Cascades' trained workshop technicians are working hard with the lining process on the tubes presently.
 
  
  
 
Once the installation is completed, the tiles are then cleaned and prepared for curing which takes approximately 30 days.

As well as the tubes sections, the head chute and trimmer running faces are also being lined during this process.

Below we can see the steelwork for the anti collision bumper arrangement awaiting installation once the tubes are assembled.
