We have a moving shiploader boom with cover reels on both ends. As the boom shuttles through a cradle one reel pays out and the other reel pays in. We are trying to come up with a method to balance/control the two reel forces to not overpower the motor that actually pushes the boom.

We are interested in talking to anyone who uses hot water to warm railcar steel so that frozen coal will dump out when the car goes through a rotary dumper (or has an opinion if it will work).
