Unloaders for railway hopper cars "Khoper"
Railway hopper car unloaders from TechnoMashStroy are equipment for fast unloading of grain, meal, compound feed, fertilizers and other bulk materials from hopper cars.
Why You Need a Hopper Car Unloader
Gravity unloading through the bottom gates empties only part of the load, and the remainder has to be cleared by hand. It takes hours, and the car sits idle. An unloader picks up the material from beneath the gates and immediately feeds it to storage, a cleaning line or a bin. Manual labor is cut significantly, and the residue left in the car is minimal.
How a Screw Unloader Works
Material from the gate falls into a receiving hopper with a protective grate. From there, an inclined screw (auger conveyor) with an electric drive lifts it to the required height. The wheeled frame lets you roll the unit up to any gate and move it along the car.
- shorter unloading time and reduced car downtime;
- mobility — convenient operation along the railway track;
- even material feed with no manual re-handling;
- sturdy welded construction for intensive use;
- simple operation and maintenance.
Where It Is Used
Unloaders are needed at grain elevators, grain terminals, feed mills and oil plants, seed farms and mineral fertilizer warehouses. They handle wheat, corn, barley, soybeans, sunflower seeds, rapeseed, meal and compound feeds.
How to Choose the Right Equipment
Pay attention to the type and bulk density of the material, the required capacity, the discharge height and the working conditions (open area or covered shed). The cargo can then be conveniently moved with grain bucket elevators, screw conveyors or belt conveyors. Before storage, it is worth passing it through grain cleaning and sorting equipment.
