Scraper Reclaimers

The coal storage is equipped with one stacker and two portal reclaimers serving a railcar loading station. The whole project has been delivered turnkey including installation.

In general portal scraper reclaimers are mainly used in buffer storages but can also achieve in combination with proper stacking methods certain blending and homogenizing results.

For high reclaiming capacities of up to 6,000 t/h TAKRAF portal reclaimers are equipped with twin booms evenly distributing the bulk material flow onto two booms.

For reclaimers with application in covered storages the scraper boom is being divided into a main and an auxiliary boom to cater for the limitation in height set by the building structure. Main and auxiliary boom are always firmly connected with each other in order to guarantee during entire operation and under all conditions a continuous and smooth flow of bulk materials from auxiliary to main boom.

The storages are receiving the sulfur product from the chemical process plant and are serving the port facilities for export. The whole project including ship-loaders and a conveying system has been contracted by TAKRAF on a turnkey basis.

Remarkable are the high standards executed in each area of the plant with regard to explosion protection and to the use of anti-corrosive materials.

The scope comprises the design and supply of 5 portal reclaimers including rail track for operation in indoor buffer storages serving ship-loaders in Maáden´s phosphate export terminal.

The portal reclaimers are each equipped with auxiliary and main booms. They are engineered for use in hot climate and achieve noteworthy high reclaim capacities.

Kansanshi operated by First Quantum Minerals is the largest copper mine in Africa. The bulk storage for copper concentrate with the TAKRAF scraper reclaimer is located in between the refinery and the mine's logistic dispatch point.

The special chain design and execution of scraper blades ensures smooth and reliable operation also in abrasive and sticky bulk materials.

The project was awarded to TAKRAF on a turnkey basis including installation, comprises of the design and supply of a complete urea handling system. Part of the scope is a portal reclaimer, the storage building, a number of tube conveyors and a railcar & truck loading station.

The portal reclaimer is for indoor operation and has not only two aligned booms firmly connected to each other but is as well equipped with a drag trough for urea discharge to the reclaim conveyor.

The storage with circular stacker reclaimer is part of a coal handling system providing thermal coal to 400 MW unit 3 of Springerville power plant.

The coal storage is designed as blending bed where a TAKRAF bridge-type scraper reclaimer in combination with chevron stacking method homogenizes coal with high fines content so constantly that a good mix of size distribution is being reclaimed and further conveyed.

The stockyard machines operate in the raw material storages, which are covered to meet highest environmental standards. Full automation and other features support the raw material logistics of the steel works.
