GENMA delivers shiploader
A GENMA shiploader, built in four months by Nantong Rainbow Heavy Machinery Co., Ltd.(RHM), has been successfully delivered to the wharf of Jiangxi Jiangzhou United Shipbuilding Co., Ltd.
The rated operating efficiency of this GENMA Shiploader is 1000 tph, mainly to provide customers with loading service for aggregate, sand, and other materials. The shiploader adopts a special telescopic chute design, in order to meet the loading requirements under the different water levels of the Yangtze River. The chute head is designed with material buffer function, which effectively avoids the impact of materials falling from height on the hull. At the same time, the shiploader is also equipped with a spray dust suppression system to reduce dust pollution during the ship loading operation.
It is worth mentioning that in order to meet the strict machine weight requirements on the old wharf, the GENMA R&D team fully investigated the site’s condition and customised a set of lightweight solutions.
The customised shiploader not only meets the wind resistance requirements along the river, but also makes the weight of the whole machine less than 150 t, which greatly reduced the customer’s wharf reconstruction cost.
