The mobile ship loader is a specialized piece of equipment designed for the unloading and loading of bulk materials (such as coal, ores, grain, fertilizers, etc.) at ports and docks. Its main features are flexibility and efficiency, allowing it to operate flexibly at different locations and quickly adjust the docking position with ships, adapting to various transportation needs. With this advantage, the mobile ship loader can complete tasks quickly and accurately in both bulk transport and urgent projects, ensuring that the loading and unloading process is free from obstacles.
The mobile ship loader consists of several parts, including a conveyor belt, telescopic boom, traveling device, pitching device, rotating device, control system, and chutes. In simple terms, the main process is: after the mobile ship loader moves, pitches, rotates, and telescopes to align with the ship's hold, materials such as coal, ores, grain, fertilizers, etc. are transported from the stockpile area to the conveyor belt using manual labor, transport vehicles, truck unloaders, and self-moving mechanisms. The conveyor belt then transports the materials to the ship’s cargo hold.
Although the process appears simple, it showcases the core advantages of the equipment. The drive system and automation control technology ensure that materials are conveyed quickly and efficiently throughout the entire process, avoiding congestion and delays that might occur in traditional loading and unloading operations.
One of the most direct indicators of a ship loader's efficiency is tons per hour. For ordinary small devices like the grasshopper conveyor, their maximum loading and unloading capacity is around 1,200 tons, or in some cases, manufacturers may not even state their capacity. Zoomry’s mobile ship loader, however, is at the forefront of the industry in terms of capacity. For heavy materials like iron ore, it can load and unload up to 5,600 tons per hour. The equipment is equipped with a high-power drive system and efficient adjustment functions, which allow it to quickly adjust the angle and position of the conveyor belt to meet the demands of different ports and ships, ensuring rapid material delivery and loading. In certain areas, it has completely surpassed traditional ship loaders, providing a flexible response during high-demand periods and significantly shortening the project loading and unloading cycle.
The Zoomry mobile ship loader allows continuous loading operations, and with a loading speed of up to 5,600 tons per hour, it significantly increases the speed of port material unloading, especially in urgent projects. It effectively shortens the bulk material unloading cycle and reduces idle time due to material transfer, bringing higher economic benefits to port operations.
The mobile ship loader is capable of handling the loading and unloading tasks of various ship types, including barges, handy-size vessels, super handy-size vessels, Panamax, and Capesize vessels. It can quickly adjust according to the port environment and ship type, making it highly adaptable and meeting the demands of different customers. This ensures efficient loading and unloading across different types of ships.
Traditional loading and unloading equipment often requires materials to be transported by truck, which can lead to risks of pollution, loss, or deterioration of materials. The mobile ship loader can move directly to the material’s location for loading and unloading, avoiding secondary handling and ensuring the quality and integrity of the cargo, preventing any damage during transportation.
Compared to traditional fixed unloading equipment, the wheeled mobile ship loader requires no ground construction during its initial setup. The equipment can typically be delivered and operational within a few days, reducing construction costs. Additionally, maintenance costs are lower. Thanks to its flexibility, the wheeled mobile ship loader can move freely between different docks or operation areas without being restricted by terrain, reducing both construction and operational costs, and further lowering the cost per ton of material loaded or unloaded, ultimately enhancing the port's profit margins.
The mobile ship loader is equipped with an intelligent control system and automated stacking technology, reducing the reliance on manual operations. Even operators without experience can quickly master the operating techniques. Through the intelligent control system, operators can remotely monitor and control the loading and unloading process, reducing training costs and minimizing the impact of workforce turnover. At the same time, it also reduces safety risks caused by human error, ensuring the smooth progress of loading and unloading operations.
Zoomry’s mobile ship loader is more compliant with modern environmental standards than traditional loading equipment. The equipment has lower emissions and produces less noise, meeting environmental requirements. Additionally, it can be equipped with dust suppression and water mist systems to effectively reduce airborne dust pollution, creating a greener and more environmentally friendly transport environment for the port.
Efficiently loading iron ore onto ships has always been a core challenge in port operations. Palmas Port in Brazil, a large deep-water port, can accommodate large bulk carriers ranging from 50,000 to 120,000 tons, including barges, handy-size vessels, super handy-size vessels, Panamax, and Capesize vessels. The port mainly handles the unloading and loading of iron ore and plans to handle bulk materials such as palm kernel expeller (PKE/PKS) and fertilizers in the future.
To address these loading and unloading demands, Palmas Port decided to upgrade its equipment to enhance efficiency and reduce operating time and costs. After extensive research into various equipment on the market, the port management chose to partner with Zoomry and adopt their advanced mobile ship loader technology.
Zoomry is a high-tech company specializing in the research and manufacturing of bulk material handling equipment, with its headquarters in Hebei, China. With years of industry experience, the company’s products include intelligent mobile ship loaders, fully hydraulic ship loaders, radial ship loaders, telescopic stackers , and more, catering to the needs of different ports. Zoomry’s equipment is particularly advantageous in high-intensity operational environments, known for their durability and long service life. Notably, the company’s heavy-duty tubular rollers last over 50,000 hours and are widely used in global high-load environments.
Zoomry’s mobile ship loader has a unique design that integrates advanced conveyor systems and high-performance engineering machinery chassis. The core components consist of two modules: the conveyor section and the engineering machinery chassis. The conveyor section benefits from Zoomry's over 20 years of technological accumulation, ensuring fast and stable material transport, while the chassis benefits from the strong support of China’s engineering machinery sector, continuously optimized and innovated to offer exceptional mobility and adaptability in narrow spaces and complex environments at ports.
Today, Zoomry’s mobile ship loader has entered its fourth generation, with significant improvements in loading and unloading efficiency, and enhanced durability, especially in complex port operational environments.

Zoomry offers various models of mobile ship loaders to meet the needs of different ports. Among them, the crawler-type ship loader uses a chassis from the well-known Chinese excavator brand SANY, making it suitable for harsh terrains with excellent mobility. It is especially effective in narrow dock areas for loading and unloading tasks. The equipment supports multiple operation modes, including forward, backward, linear, and vertical movements, allowing flexible adjustment in tight spaces to improve efficiency.
Moreover, the fully hydraulic wheeled ship loader has a self-propelled function, allowing it to move freely without external traction. It offers enhanced adaptability and also supports forward, backward, linear, vertical, and radial movements, improving operational flexibility, reducing deployment time, and cutting costs.
After using Zoomry's mobile ship loader, Palmas Port has significantly improved loading and unloading efficiency. Especially in iron ore loading, the equipment can load over 5,600 tons per hour.
