A Siwertell coal unloader ordered to discharge coal in Porto do Itaqui, Brazil, offers environmental, technical, and efficiency benefits
In July Cargotec secured an order for a Siwertell 790-D screw type continuous ship unloader from UTE Porto do Itaqui Geraco de Energia SA, Brazil. The unloader is guaranteed to have a rated capacity of 1,000 tph and to be able to unload ships of between 30,000 dwt and 100,000 dwt part loaded.
As well as the ship unloader for handling coal, the contract includes spare parts, supervision of installation, commissioning, start-up, testing, and training. The unloader will be assembled in Porto do Itaqui, and is expected to start operation at the end of 2010.
“The customer chose Siwertell equipment for three main reasons: environmental, technical, and capacity,“ said Jonas Fack, sales director for bulk terminals. “First, the environmental benefits are that it doesn’t allow dust or spillages to escape. Second, the unloader’s low machine weight and low wheel loads were technical advantages because the existing jetty has limited load capacity. Third, the high capacity of the equipment means that it is highly efficient which produces cost savings.”
Cargotec improves the efficiency of cargo flows by offering solutions for the loading and unloading of goods on land and at sea – wherever cargo is on the move. Cargotec’s main daughter brands for cargo handling Hiab, Kalmar and MacGregor are global market leaders in their fields.
