ZOOMRY
In the context of continuously developing global trade, industries such as mining, ports, and energy are demanding higher efficiency in bulk material transportation. As a critical link connecting production and logistics, the performance of high-throughput material handling systems directly impacts operational costs and corporate competitiveness. Zoomry Heavy Industry, with over 20 years of expertise in bulk material handling, provides global clients with efficient, intelligent, and environmentally friendly bulk material handling equipment and system integration services through innovative technologies and professional solutions.
I. Industry Demands and Technological Challenges of High-throughput Bulk Handling Systems
Evolution of Industry Demands
With expanding mining scales, growing port throughput, and stricter environmental standards, bulk material handling faces three core requirements:
- Efficiency Upgrade: Traditional fixed conveyor systems struggle to meet material transfer demands of hourly thousands of tons, necessitating flexible adjustments and high-load continuous operation capabilities.
- Cost Control: In long-distance transportation, equipment energy consumption and maintenance account for over 30% of operational expenses, making lightweight design and energy-saving technologies crucial.
- Environmental Compliance: Dust emissions, noise pollution, and other environmental indicators are increasingly stringent; enclosed conveying and low-noise designs have become basic requirements for international market access.
Analysis of Technological Challenges
Achieving high throughput in bulk handling systems encounters multiple technical bottlenecks:
- Material Property Variations: Differences in particle size, moisture, and angle of repose for ores, coal, grains, etc., require equipment with self-adaptive adjustment capabilities.
- Complex Working Conditions: Tidal changes in ports, undulating mine terrains, and climate impacts in open-air operations demand high stability and environmental adaptability.
- System Integration Complexity: Full-process automation control—from unloading to conveying, stockpiling, and ship loading—requires multi-equipment coordination and intelligent scheduling technology.
II. Zoomry’s Core High-throughput Product: ZR-SF Radial telescopic stacker
Product Technical Architecture
The ZR-SF Radial Telescopic Stacker, as Zoomry’s flagship product, integrates three core functional modules:
- Mechanical Transmission System: Utilizes high-strength carbon steel frames and lattice structures, enabling 360° radial rotation, telescopic extension (max. 50m), and luffing adjustment (pitch range -15° to +28°), maximizing material stockpiling coverage.
- Hydraulic Power System: Equipped with a 500-650L reservoir electro-hydraulic power unit, with response time ≤0.5 seconds, supporting 12+ hours of continuous fault-free operation.
- Intelligent Control System: PLC-based fully automated programming with HMI touchscreen interface, presetting 10 stockpiling trajectories for unmanned operation.
High-throughput Performance Advantages
Compared to traditional fixed stackers, the ZR-SF significantly enhances efficiency:
- Stockpile Capacity Breakthrough: Under same site conditions, stockpile capacity increases by 28%. Example: A 50m model achieves 101,275 tons of kaolin (at 45° angle of repose).
- Operational Efficiency Optimization: Telescopic speed of 0.8 m/s, radial rotation at 0.15 RPM, and belt speed of 2.5 m/s enable a max. handling capacity of 1,800 tons/hour.
- Energy Reduction Solution: SEW/FLENDER gear motors and energy-saving hydraulic systems lower unit energy consumption by 15–20% vs. peers, complying with EU CE efficiency standards.
Eco-friendly and Safety Design
Zoomry incorporates multiple eco-innovations:
- Dust Control Technology: Built-in polyurethane (PU) scraper blades and enclosed structure limit dust emissions to <10 mg/m³, meeting EU EN 15051 standards.
- Noise Suppression Measures: Silent idlers (<45 dB) and hydraulic damping reduce operational noise by 12 dB compared to conventional equipment.
- Safety Redundancy Design: Equipped with belt misalignment switches, emergency stop cords, and hydraulic auto-lock systems. The stacker locks within 0.01 seconds during power loss or wire rope breakage.
III. High-throughput Port Equipment: mobile shiploader
Vessel Adaptation and Operational Scenarios
Zoomry’s mobile shiploaders offer customized solutions for vessels of various tonnages:
| Vessel Type | DWT | Operating Height (m) | Compatible Model |
|---|---|---|---|
| Barge | 100-5,000 | 0-3 | ZRSL-40 |
| Handysize | 10,000-35,000 | 4-8 | ZRSL-45 |
| Handymax | 35,000-50,000 | 6-10 | ZRSL-50 |
| Panamax | 60,000-80,000 | 10-14 | ZRSL-60 |
Technological Innovations and Efficiency Gains
Three core technological breakthroughs:
- Flexible Docking System: Hydraulic lifting chassis adapts to ±2m vessel fluctuations during tides, ensuring continuous loading.
- Anti-segregation Design: Variable frequency speed control and material flow technology limit segregation to <5%, outperforming the industry average of 10%—ideal for high-value materials like concentrates and grains.
- Rapid Transfer Capability: Wheeled/crawler chassis options; crawler models move at 1.5 km/h on soft ground, enabling swift multi-berth switching.
System Integration and Intelligence
Seamless integration with terminal automation systems:
- Data Interconnectivity: Supports OPC UA protocol, real-time uploading of operational data (loading volume, energy consumption, status) to terminal management systems for full-process visualization.
- Remote Maintenance: 4G/5G-enabled remote diagnostics and predictive maintenance reduce downtime by 30%.
- Eco-mode: Diesel-electric hybrid system cuts carbon emissions by 40% compared to pure diesel models when switched to electric mode in grid-covered areas.
