In the global bulk material handling industry, from ore loading and unloading at seaports to raw material transfer in mines, from sand and gravel storage in aggregate plants to coal storage in power plants, "high efficiency, flexibility, and environmental friendliness" have always been the core needs for enterprises to break through production bottlenecks. The mobile stacker conveyor, based on a movable chassis and equipped with adjustable conveying and stacking mechanisms, can free itself from the reliance of traditional fixed stacking equipment on civil engineering, and flexibly adapt to different operation sites and material types. Its core functions are as follows: On one hand, it breaks the limitation of fixed storage areas, can dynamically adjust its position according to operation points, reduces the link of secondary material transfer, and improves overall handling efficiency; On the other hand, by optimizing stacking methods (such as layered stacking and wind-driven stacking), it can not only reduce the risk of material segregation and crushing, but also maximize the use of site storage capacity. At the same time, it can also combine sealing and dust removal designs to reduce environmental impact, solving the pain points of "low efficiency, poor adaptability, and high pollution" in traditional stacking modes.
Core Values of Mobile Stacker Conveyors
Strong Terrain Adaptability: Optional wheeled or crawler chassis. The crawler model has low ground pressure and can run stably on soft ground in mines and slippery terminals in ports; With the support of hydraulic jacks, it can maintain horizontal operation even on 18° steep slopes, avoiding equipment overturning.
High Stacking Efficiency: Through optimized design, the stacking capacity of ZOOMRY ZR-SF series radial telescopic mobile stacker conveyors is 28% higher than that of traditional fixed conveyors; Equipped with a fully automatic PLC control system, it can realize "wind-driven stacking" with a maximum daily throughput of 15,000 tons, reducing manual operation errors.
Balanced Environmental Protection and Safety: Sealed conveyor belt design + non-powered dust collection chute can reduce dust emission (operating noise ≤45dB, which is better than the national standard of 55dB); Equipped with double mechanical limits for steel rope breakage and emergency stop switch, it is suitable for high-risk scenarios such as mines and chemical industry.
Convenient Global Transportation and Installation: The equipment can be disassembled and loaded into 40-inch HQ containers, reducing transportation costs by 30%; On-site assembly only takes 10-20 days, and ZOOMRY engineers provide on-site guidance, enabling rapid commissioning even in remote areas.
Core Application Scenarios of Mobile Stacker Conveyors
Seaport Terminals
Seaports are hubs for the import and export of global bulk materials (iron ore, coal, grain), facing three major challenges: diverse ship types, limited terminal space, and the impact of tidal changes on loading height. Traditional fixed loading equipment requires large-scale civil engineering and cannot be adjusted according to ship types, resulting in low efficiency. ZOOMRY mobile stacker conveyors have the following advantages:
Multi-Ship Compatibility: Supports radial rotation (maximum rotation angle of 110°, far exceeding the 70° limit of traditional belt conveyors), telescopic and luffing adjustment. It can adjust the stacking height according to ship types (0-3m for barges, 10-14m for Panamax ships, 16m for Capesize ships) without modifying terminal infrastructure.
Pollution Prevention and Quality Assurance: Adopts head PU cleaning scraper + sealed conveyor belt to prevent material contamination (such as grain and chemical raw materials) by seawater salt and terminal dust; The PLC automatic stacking system can prevent material segregation (such as the stratification of coarse and fine iron ore particles), with a loading quality deviation rate of ≤3%.
Mine Mining
In mine (coal mine, metal mine) scenarios, bulk materials (ore, coal gangue) need to be transferred from the mining face to temporary storage yards or concentrators, facing problems such as rugged terrain (slope exceeding 18°), scattered operation areas, and large material handling volume (daily average exceeding 10,000 tons). Traditional fixed stacker conveyors rely on civil engineering and cannot move with the mining face, resulting in high transfer costs. ZOOMRY mobile stacker conveyors designed for mine scenarios (such as ZR120D crawler model) have the following features:
Unconstrained Terrain Adaptation: The crawler chassis has low ground pressure and can run on soft ground and steep slope areas; The hydraulic system is equipped with low-temperature heating function, suitable for alpine mines at -30℃ (such as mines in Inner Mongolia and Siberia).
Durability and High Load Capacity: Adopts 40Cr forged shafts (diameter ≥200mm), SEW/FLENDER gear motors (internationally renowned brands with low failure rates), and ZOOMRY self-developed high-wear-resistant idlers (service life exceeding 50,000 hours, 20% longer than the industry average). It can continuously handle 550tph ore, meeting the needs of large-scale mines.
Cost and Safety Optimization: Through "unmanned transfer between mining face and storage yard", labor costs are reduced by 60%; The equipment does not require civil engineering and moves with the mining face, saving more than 2 million yuan in infrastructure investment for a single project; Equipped with dust detection and emergency stop system, it complies with China's GB 28664-2012 and EU EN 15037 safety standards.
Aggregate Processing
Aggregates (sand, gravel, cement clinker) are core raw materials in the construction and infrastructure industries, and their gradation uniformity directly affects concrete strength. Traditional stacking methods (truck dumping) are prone to material segregation (coarse particles sink, fine particles float), impurity mixing, and limited stacking capacity, restricting the production capacity of aggregate plants. ZOOMRY mobile stacker conveyors are tailored for aggregate scenarios:
Anti-Segregation Technology: Through PLC control of the rotation speed and telescopic length of the stacking arm, "layered stacking" is realized, with an aggregate gradation deviation rate of ≤3%, far lower than the industry average of 8%; For easily crushable cement clinker, the belt speed can be reduced to 2.0m/s, and the crushing rate is controlled below 1%.
Flexible Transfer and Customization: The equipment can be disassembled for transportation, suitable for the "multi-production line rotation stacking" needs of aggregate plants; It can be customized with rain cover devices (such as projects in European prefabricated component factories) to prevent aggregate moisture content from exceeding the standard due to rain soaking, complying with EU EN 13242 environmental standards.
Coal-Fired Power Plants
Coal-fired power plants need to store a large amount of coal (daily consumption of thousands of tons). Traditional coal stacking methods (open-air stacking) are prone to dust pollution and rain wetting (affecting combustion efficiency), and rely on trucks to transfer coal to the boiler workshop, resulting in high costs and high energy consumption. Mobile stacker conveyors can realize seamless connection between "coal yard and coal conveying belt", solving the problems of cleanliness and efficiency. The core values of ZOOMRY mobile stacker conveyors in this scenario are:
Dust Prevention and Energy Saving: Sealed conveyor belt + non-powered dust collection chute reduces coal dust emission (complying with China's GB 13223-2011 thermal power plant emission standards); Replacing truck transfer reduces transportation costs by more than 30% and reduces carbon footprint.
Precise Control and Safety: The PLC system can adjust the stacking speed according to the boiler coal consumption to avoid coal yard backlog or shortage; Equipped with belt deviation switch and fire alarm device, it meets the safety requirements of high-risk power plant environments.
Chemical Industry
Bulk materials in the chemical industry (such as soda ash, chemical fertilizers, PVC particles) are mostly corrosive or volatile. During the stacking process, it is necessary to avoid "material leakage polluting the environment" and "equipment corrosion shortening service life". Traditional stacking equipment has poor sealing performance, which is prone to safety accidents. ZOOMRY mobile stacker conveyors for chemical scenarios have been specially optimized:
Corrosion-Resistant Design: Key components (such as chutes and idler housings) are made of 304 stainless steel, which can resist acid and alkali corrosion; The sealed conveyor belt is made of oil-resistant rubber to avoid erosion by chemical solvents.
Safety and Compliance: The equipment has passed CE certification (complying with EU REACH regulations) and is equipped with gas detection interfaces to monitor the concentration of volatile materials in real time; The emergency stop system has a response time of ≤0.01 seconds to prevent leakage diffusion.
Grain Storage
Grain (wheat, corn, soybeans) stacking needs to avoid "crushing (affecting quality), moisture absorption (mildew), and insect infestation". Traditional fixed stacker conveyors have hard belts and no moisture-proof design, which are prone to grain loss. Mobile stacker conveyors, with "flexible conveying + customized moisture protection", have become an ideal choice for grain storage. The advantages of ZOOMRY mobile stacker conveyors in grain scenarios are:
Low Crushing Rate and Moisture Protection: Adopts flexible rubber conveyor belt, with a grain crushing rate of ≤0.5%; It can be customized with closed grain covers + dehumidification devices to prevent grain from getting damp and mildewed (moisture content controlled below 13%).
Flexibility and Efficiency: The wheeled chassis can move in narrow passages of grain depots, with a stacking height of up to 8m, increasing the storage capacity of grain depots; Combined with an automatic counting system, it accurately records the stacking volume, facilitating inventory management.
How to Select a Mobile Stacker Conveyor Suitable for the Scenario?
Different scenarios have significant differences in requirements for mobile stacker conveyors. Choosing the wrong equipment is likely to lead to low efficiency and cost waste. ZOOMRY recommends evaluating from three aspects:
Clarify Core Scene Requirements: Prioritize the analysis of material characteristics (such as density, corrosiveness, fragility), throughput (tph), and site conditions (terrain, power supply). For example: Choose crawler type for mines (complex terrain), choose stainless steel components for chemical industry (corrosion resistance), and choose diesel power for remote areas (no electricity).
Verify Key Equipment Parameters: Pay attention to stacking capacity (ZOOMRY optimized design increases by 28%), rotation angle (maximum 110°), service life of core components (idlers ≥50,000 hours), and international certifications (CE/EAC/KCS). For example: Ports need to select models with large rotation angles and high stacking heights, while grain storage needs to select models with low crushing rates.
Attach Importance to Full-Life-Cycle Services: Mobile stacker conveyors are large-scale equipment, so it is necessary to pay attention to quality assurance (ZOOMRY provides 5-year warranty for core components), installation guidance (10-20 days on-site), and spare parts supply (global inventory). For example: Overseas projects need to choose brands with localized services to avoid after-sales delays.
