Unloading Conveyor

Project Location: United Kingdom

Target Industry: Logistics/Postal & Parcel

This project was for a logistics company which required the quick supply and installation of a system which could handle their peak product
volume but could also be adaptable and reused for alternative setups after the peak requirement.

Part of this setup was 3 single stage telescopic vehicle unloaders. The unloaders extend/retract and raise/lower to reach through a building door and into the back of a trailer or van. They are then used to feed a conveyor system o sort the product and in this case are used to feed the 900 wide IDC Roller Track.

IDC worked with the customer to come up with a design which would allow no lifting or transporting the engines once they had started assembly apart from on the conveyor making the operation streamlined and safe. We incorporated a gravity system which allowed machines to be moved at the operator’s own pace and a custom frame to allow for the load of an engine over a short distance.
