Port Bulk Handling
Port Bulk Handling
For the port and terminal sector, Scorpio offers the conveying systems and equipment on turnkey basis or as
individual supply. This covers the handling of almost all dry bulk materials in ports and terminals including
cement, fly ash, iron ore, coal, rock phosphate, fertilizer, petrochemicals, chemicals, food grain etc.
1. MOBILE HOPPERS
Mobile Hoppers engineered and supplied by Scorpio receive
material from cranes through grabs and are supplied in
capacities upto 150 200m3. These hoppers have optional
plastic liners for abrasive materials. The hoppers have
weigh belt feeders for measuring discharge rate (optional).
They are hydraulically driven on rails. Hoppers can be
supplied with integral dust collection systems to ensure dust
free grab unloading. They come complete with storm locks,
brakes and maintenance access.
2. BELT CONVEYORS
Materials unloaded from the grabs through our Mobile Hoppers
are discharged to jetty conveyors which can convey the
unloaded material to stockyard or to open or closed storage
systems (silos or flat storage).
The conveyor capacities will handle large discharge rates.
3. PIPE CONVEYORS
In cases where the ship unloaded material cannot be
stored near the dock due to government of other
constraints, Scorpio offers enclosed pipe conveyors
which can convey the material to long distances (1 10
km and beyond). These pipe conveyors are cross
country conveyors and run at approx. elevation of 15 to
30m. Capacities range from 500 TPH and above. Pipe
conveyors are designed and engineered to specifications
of our Principals, Bridgestone, Japan.
B. RECLAIMER
The Linear Homogenizing Bridge Reclaimer comprises a
movable bridge, supported on side traveling end carriage with
traveling harrow arranged to match the material repose angle and
by moving back and forth across the full face of the stockpile
ensuring every layer are dislodged simultaneously and flow down
to the reclaim scraper chain conveyor running across the base of
the stockpile. The advantage of such a blending method is that at
the very end before the materials are reclaimed, it is possible to
add some materials having different characteristics
The self-unloaders can also double as floating terminals there by the cement from the holds is fed into a packing
plant within the ship (one of the holds is converted to a packing plant). These floating terminals discharge
bagged cement as against bulk cement in the self-unloaders. The bagged cement can be discharged from the side
of the ship to dockside pallets or directly loaded into trucks parked on the jetty. These dumb barges are gearless
vessels with shallow draft can be berthed in low draft areas.
9. AHTSV SYSTEMS
For offshore supplies, Scorpio offers dense phase pneumatic pumping systems installed in the holds of Anchor
