Movable bunker belt

Dredging spoil containing clay is excavated material that usually cannot be processed without trouble in a transfer hopper. To be able to use a hopper that does not become jammed due to sticky materials, Martens en Van Oord created its own design, combining a conveyor belt and a storage bunker: the bunker belt.

This bunker with a capacity of 40 m3 has walls made of solid stainless steel. The walls are also very steep in relation to the conveyor belt below. To be able to properly unload sticky materials, the bunker has a tapered design, unloading in the direction of transport. Using the control system of the underlying conveyor belt, the driver can load his own lorry. After loading the vehicle, the belt stops and the bunker is sealed off by a hydraulically-operated valve. 

The mobile bunker belt is a sustainable asset for clean and efficient transfer work.
