- The unloader is designed to accomodate the large pull-out forces which often exceed the weight of cane in the truck
- The simplicity of the design makes for quick turn-around times while unloading
- Rolling element bearings support the sheave wheels, making for low maintenance
- A heavy duty helical bevel gearbox with a large service factor is specified
- All the unloader components are bolted to a reinforced concrete foundation, which is also the main counter-balance weight
- Each unloader will be custom designed to meet the exact and specific requirements of the user, using high tech design tools, which means the design can be rapidly executed, at a low cost to the client.
