For efficient unloading of bulk materials, several discontinuous and continuous ship unloading systems (CSU) are employed worldwide. Each of the systems is founded on sophisticated, powerful technology and can be the proper solution for a specific area of application.
All ship unloaders serve the same basic purpose: to unload grains or other bulk materials as efficiently as possible. To make an informed and well-founded decision on which unloader is the best solution for your terminal, basic issues have to be considered and evaluated, such as total costs, energy consumption, availability, safety, etc.
