Bulk Handling
Telestack installed a new Titan W800 Truck Unloader for Dry Bulk Storage and Transhipment
Telestack, in collaboration with their long-term partner Van der Spek Vianen (VDS), has successfully installed and commissioned a brand-new, 70-tonne Mobile Titan W800 truck unloader at Lansers Trio in the Netherlands.
The Titan W800 is a versatile, wheel-mounted mobile truck unloader designed to facilitate direct unloading from trucks. It features a robust heavy duty apron chain feeder that allows 50-tonne road dump trucks and wheel loaders to unload material directly into the rear of the unit.
The Titan series of truck unloaders are ideal for eliminating the need for double handling of materials, ensuring a seamless and efficient 'direct' discharge from the truck. Prior to the installation of the Telestack W800 at Lanser Trio, the operator was required to dump materials onto the ground and then handle them again using wheel loaders, which significantly increased their costs per tonne and led to material degradation due to fuel spillage. The new system streamlines the unloading process, reduces operational costs, and preserves the quality of the materials.
The Telestack Titan W800 wheel-mobile was meticulously designed through a collaborative effort involving Lansers Trio (the customer), VDS (the Telestack dealer), and Telestack Ltd. This close partnership ensured that the Titan W800 would fully
meet the customer’s diverse application requirements. The project exemplifies how Telestack and VDS, leveraging their custom design capabilities, push the boundaries of innovation to satisfy the demands of even the most challenging applications.
Features of the Telestack Titan W800 Truck Unloader
The W800 is a versatile piece of equipment specifically designed as a wheel-mounted Truck Unloader, featuring an integrated tow hitch for easy mobility across the site. This design element is crucial, as it allows the truck unloader to be easily repositioned as needed, enhancing its multi-functional capabilities. The W800 can be effectively used for various tasks such as reclaiming materials, feeding auxiliary equipment, and supplying material to Shiploaders. This flexibility makes it an essential component in streamlining site operations.
The W800 truck unloader for Lanser Trio was engineered to handle a diverse range of materials, including cokes, coal, and slag. The Truck Unloader is capable of efficiently managing materials with varying properties, ensuring seamless operation when unloading from 50-tonne trucks. It is designed to process between 600/ 700 TPH meeting the demanding requirements of the operation.
