Problems with hopper railcars unloading?

 

WE OFFER PROFESSIONAL SOLUTION – PNEUMATIC SHAKERS VH-500

 

 

ABOUT RAILWAY CAR SHAKERS VH

MORE EFFECTIVE THAN OTHER RAILCAR SHAKERS

VH-500 and VH-500T railway car shakers are pneumatic vibration systems designed to decrease loading/unloading times of bulk materials from hopper railcars of different modifications. In humid conditions or as temperatures drop, bulk materials tend to clump together and stick to railcar body, making unloading difficult. The vibration systems allow to completely unload bulk materials such as coal, coke, lignite, iron ore and wood chips several times faster. Besides, it increases a railcar capacity during loading of low density bulk materials. High amplitude and low frequency vibrations of the railcar shaker are far more effective and powerful than the high frequency rotational vibration used in other railcar shakers.

managed by one operator

The operating principals of the design allow for efficient influence of material in the railcars with low stress to the rail car structure. An impact hammer, a pneumatic positioning cylinder and a heavy duty steel frame are protected against corrosion and can work in aggressive environment.  The car shakers are easily managed by one operator. Controls can be stationed in the air preparation unit mounted on a frame. Shaker’s controls can be stationed in the air preparation unit mounted on a frame or at a remote location (option). With its 180o rotating head VH-500T allows to unload bulk materials from two railcars on parallel tracks.

HAPPENED TO YOU? HERE IS THE SOLUTION!

VH-500 standard

Standard version VH-500 allows to speed unloading of bulk materials from hopper railcars. The entire operation of the VH-500 can be performed by one operator. It completely eliminates the need to manually clean rail cars and eliminates carryback.

VH-500T with rotating head

T-version of VH-500 allows to speed unloading of bulk materials from two hopper railcars on parallel tracks. Once unloading of the first railcar is completed air supply valve should be shut. Next the rotating head should be turned and fixed to the opposite direction by 180o. After that unloading could be started.

 TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS

WHO WILL BENEFIT FROM OUR EQUIPMENT?

Our pneumatic vibratory shakers VH-500 are essential helpers during the unloading of the bulk materials from the wagons – hoppers. With these the unloading process is much faster which helps to save the demurrage costs for the companies, receiving freight in the wagons with hatches.
