Ships all over the world are loading with know-how from Quickborn

SMB International builds ship loaders in a great variety of forms /

Specialty area: Conversions of existing systems


Be it conversions of existing loaders or designs for bulk good loading or bagged cargo loading and even combined systems for loading bulk goods and bagged goods, project managers from SMB International successfully realise a great number of projects. The complex systems focus on the fields of fertiliser, sulphur and cement, as well as bulk and bagged goods in general. The north German developer's specialty: a combined ship loader for sacks and bulk goods. It incorporates multiple conveyor belts and both types of loading are carried out separately from one another mechanically.

Systems to overcome adverse conditions

Each order has specific requirements: whether nature-related requirements concerning wind, snow, heat and earthquake danger, or product-related due to

autoflammability or work areas with risk of explosion. SMB employees are currently working on a combination loader in Russia which is designed to load cement in both loose and bagged form. The machine must function without a hitch at temperatures as low as -40° Celsius. ‘Each new order brings a new challenge with it. That is what makes our work so exciting, since we are constantly learning in the process, enabling

us to develop inventive individual solutions’, explains Andreas Heckel, Managing Director of SMB International GmbH. Individual systems have now been created such as ones with a special turntable for bagged cargo loading, centrifugal belts for loose goods which can distribute the goods up to 10 metres in breadth, or cascade slides with a special arrangement of the cascade elements to enable nearly dust-free loading of bulk goods.

Save money with conversions

In their conversion work, SMB engineers make use of existing steel structures, to which they apply state-of-the-art technology. This is well worth it, especially in consideration of structural requirements as well as current steel prices. This makes a total conversion less expensive to carry out than a complete new construction. SMB can conduct a complete conversion within only six weeks of interrupted loading. In doing so, the German mechanical engineering company performs the entire conversion, from design to project management and drafting all the way to technical implementation and on-site supervision – anywhere in the world.

SMB

SMB has a long tradition in systems for bulk goods and piece goods – the name stands for Sonder Maschinen Bau (special-purpose machinery construction). While demand at the company’s outset was only for conveyor systems, constant growth led SMB International GmbH to evolve into one of the leading suppliers of all kinds of port transfer systems. SMB meets the demanding material-related requirements of conveying bulk and piece goods by using high-grade components and the highest of quality standards in the manufacturing process. The mechanical engineering company from Quickborn produces high-performance conveyance solutions which are designed for trouble-free long-term operation and minimum energy requirements. Countless projects all over the world convince shipping company owners, port operators and industrial enterprises of the quality of German mechanical engineering. Current projects in the Middle East, Southeast Asia and Europe speak for themselves. In addition to combination ship loaders with spiral chutes and feed heads, loose good

loaders and systems for fertiliser, the selection is rounded off by systems for cement sacks.
