They needed a flexible conveying solution that could provide fast and reliable transport of PP and PE pellets from Rail Cars. The Rail Car siding has room for up to 5 Cars to be parked for unloading, each having 4 ports to pull the pellets from. The pellets will then be blown into any one of 10 different 31-meter high silos within a tight timeframe.
The conveying solution had to be 100% free of any kind of contamination, including moisture and or other materials. If moisture and/or foreign particles get into the silos, it can have devastating economic consequences. The total cost of ownership should be less than for their previous conveying system with PD pumps.
The system consists of modular standard elements and ensures a conveying system that brings the pellets safely in the silos in time, no matter from which railcar the pellets are being vacuumed from
Next time the customer builds a new silo, it is less costly to upgrade the system. Kongskilde just installs a new pipeline
Conveying distance: H: max 31 m. V: max 28 m
