Drum Handling System for Bitumen-Filled Drums
Drums weighing 160kg each are conveyed to the berth-side feeding points for loading onto ships. The high temperature (60' C) and difficult (lumpy) characteristics of bitumen make it's handling difficult.
The design incorporates a unique bi-directional tilter that tilts the drums at a rate of 12 drums per minute. The air clutch controlled tilter ensures that drums are not damaged in high-speed tilting operation. A tipper using a pneumatic solenoid control valve then conveys the drums to the discharge bay. For easy identification purposes, a printing machine for labeling drums is integrated into the system.
Drum Handling System For Edible oils
Drums are conveyed on a 160m long feeding conveyor to the Y-module containing the storage and filling machines. The design capacity of this system is 300 drums per hour per Y-module.
The filling lines were specially designed to allow for easy future capacity expansion. Three Y-modular systems were built to bring the total plant capacity to 900 drums per hour.
