Shuttle Conveyor
Shuttle Conveyor
(OP)
Currently have a shuttle conveyor and chute to load concentrate into rail cars. The chute dumps the concentrate into the middle of the cars, creating a peak down the middle. Obviously this needs to be sorted out. Anyone have a good resource for this type of re-design or any helpful suggestions???
Thanks!
Thanks!

RE: Shuttle Conveyor
Move/position the chute to spread the dumping point
Fit a two-way (or oscillating) deflector at the end of the chute
Fit a mechanical spreader at the end of the chute
Vibrate the cars to level the load
Employ manual labourers to spread the load

Loading railcars is, in my exp., today a 'hightech' undertaking, as schedules are tight and overall tech specs have got to high levels. Also, railways tend to be tough with demands towards treating their equipment.
