Paceco after years of research work, has developed an unloader which is of a continuous dragline type It can discharge most bulk materials, has low power consumption, can unload with little dust emissions, and is easy to operate It can be adapted to many installations by varying the support structure and the size of the buckets.
The first commercial machine is proving itself in Gulfport, Mississippi, USA, unloading ilmenite mineral sand. Because of the pressure for more efficient higher capacity unloaders, it is believed that there will be a gradual increase in the application of various types of continuous discharging machines.
