mobile Bucket Wheel

The mobile Bucket Wheel from ZOOMRY is equipped with 8-12 customized bucket wheels (diameter 5254-8200 mm), with handling capacity covering 500-3000 m³/h. The bucket wheel speed can be flexibly adjusted between 2-6 r/min, combined with a ±65-360° full-angle slewing mechanism and a low ground pressure track system of 125-193 kPa. It can stably handle reclaiming operations in hard rock stockpiles in mines and also adapt to stacking needs for loose bulk cargo in ports, without requiring separate equipment configurations for different scenarios. 

Core Functions of mobile Bucket Wheel

The mobile Bucket Wheel from ZOOMRY addresses the pain points of traditional bucket wheel machines, such as "single scenario adaptability, poor stacking and reclaiming precision, and difficulty handling complex stockpiles," through optimization of the bucket wheel system's universality and full-range design of the slewing and height mechanisms. It solves issues like "easy wear from hard material reclaiming in mines" and "easy spillage in loose material stacking in ports," while aligning with global customers' demands for "international compliance and long-term durability," reinforcing the core positioning of "universal bulk material bucket wheel machine."

Universal Bucket Wheel System

Configured with 8-12 bucket wheels in an "equidistant circumferential distribution + modular design," each with a single bucket capacity of 0.25-0.71 m³, they can be flexibly combined based on handling capacity in different scenarios: 8-10 bucket wheels for small to medium-scale mine yards (500-1500 m³/h), and 10-12 for large-scale port bulk cargo handling (1500-3000 m³/h), allowing seamless switching between operational scenarios without replacing core components. Bucket wheel speed supports stepless adjustment from 2-6 r/min, precisely adapting to different material properties—for processing higher-hardness ores in mines, speed is lowered to 2-4 r/min, paired with 16 mm thick Mn13 wear-resistant manganese steel blades (surface welded with 3 mm tungsten carbide coating), improving wear resistance by 180% over ordinary carbon steel to avoid blade damage from hard material impacts; for handling loose coal, grains, and other lightweight bulk materials in ports, speed is raised to 4-6 r/min, combined with inner PTFE anti-stick guide plates on the bucket wheel (material residue rate ≤0.2%), ensuring rapid capture without blockages and adapting to the diverse needs of universal bulk materials. Bucket wheel drive power covers 75-1100 kW, matched by handling capacity gradients: 75-220 kW motors for 500-1000 m³/h, 220-630 kW for 1000-2000 m³/h, and 630-1100 kW for 2000-3000 m³/h. Motors achieve IP55 protection rating with built-in anti-condensation heating devices, capable of withstanding high dust and humidity in mines as well as salt spray climates in ports, ensuring stable drive across different scenarios.

Full-Range Operation Coverage

Through flexible design of "slewing angle + operating height," the equipment achieves full-range operations in universal scenarios: the bucket wheel reclaiming arm supports ±65-360° full-angle slewing, covering an 80 m diameter stockpile area without equipment movement—in mine multi-stockpile parallel operations, it can quickly switch reclaiming points via slewing; for port bulk cargo stacking, it enables "fan-shaped stacking" to maximize site space utilization. The discharge arm adjusts ±90-±105° relative to the reclaiming arm, combined with 15 m upward digging height and 1 m downward digging height, allowing capture of 15 m high hard rock stockpiles in mines or cleaning of 1 m deep bottom residues, while in ports, stacking adjustments match ship or silo heights to avoid material spillage. The slewing drive adopts a "dual-motor synchronous control + planetary reducer" combination, delivering output torque up to 10000 N·m, maintaining ≤0.3° slewing precision even when capturing large ore blocks (diameter ≤500 mm) in mines, ensuring precise reclaiming positions; the slewing bearing uses a four-point contact ball bearing (diameter 3-5 m), with load capacity of 1800 kN, capable of withstanding radial loads during reclaiming and overturning moments during stacking. The surface "nitriding + double-lip sealing" design resists corrosion and dust, with service life exceeding 60000 hours, adapting to long-term operational needs across different scenarios.

Stable Conveyor Connection

The conveyor system, as the core connection between "bucket wheel stacking and reclaiming - downstream transfer," focuses on "stable conveying for diverse universal materials": reclaiming conveyor belt width covers 1200-1600 mm, with belt speed 2.5-5.0 m/s, flexibly matched to handling capacity and material properties—for ore conveying in mines, select 1400-1600 mm width + 3.0-5.0 m/s speed for rapid transport of large particles; for coal and grain conveying in ports, select 1200-1400 mm width + 2.5-3.0 m/s speed to avoid slippage of lightweight materials. The conveyor belt uses "high-wear-resistant PVG flame-retardant rubber belt" (14 mm thickness), with longitudinal tensile strength of 2000 N/mm and diamond anti-slip pattern surface treatment (10 mm depth), enhancing anti-slip performance by 50% to adapt to damp ores in mines and sticky bulk materials in ports; both sides feature 400 mm high wear-resistant rubber skirts + soft sealing strips, with side leakage rate ≤0.5%, reducing losses during conveyance of different materials. The conveyor system is also equipped with "passive hydraulic aligning idlers" and a "heavy-duty polyurethane scraper + brush" combination: aligning idlers correct belt deviation within 2 seconds to avoid conveyance interruptions from deviation; scraper + brush cleaning rate reaches 99.8%, clearing surface residues to prevent cross-contamination during alternating ore conveyance in mines and bulk cargo in ports, enhancing the equipment's universal adaptability.

Core Components of mobile Bucket Wheel

Universal Bucket Wheel Drive Unit

The bucket wheel drive system centers on "adapting to different handling capacities and material properties," using "high-efficiency permanent magnet synchronous motors" with power covering 75-1100 kW and efficiency above 96.5%, saving 12% energy compared to ordinary asynchronous motors. Motors include built-in "vibration dampers + anti-condensation heating devices" and IP55 protection rating, capable of withstanding high dust in mines and high salt spray in ports, adapting to global diverse climate operational scenarios. The matching reducer uses a "hard-tooth surface planetary reducer" with 97.5% transmission efficiency and 50% higher load capacity than ordinary reducers; during reclaiming, it withstands instantaneous impact loads from hard materials in mines (maximum impact torque 1.8 times rated), and during stacking, smooth output ensures uniform conveyor feeding to avoid bulk material accumulation blockages in ports. The reducer and bucket wheel shaft use "elastic coupling + positioning pin" dual connection, buffering startup impacts while ensuring bucket wheel coaxiality deviation ≤0.05 mm to avoid reclaiming deviations from eccentricity; the drive system is also equipped with a "torque monitoring and protection device" that provides real-time feedback on bucket wheel load, automatically reducing speed when load exceeds 120% of rated and cutting power when exceeding 150%, protecting drive components from damage and adapting to load fluctuations of different materials.

Conveyor and Hydraulic System

The conveyor system's "universal adaptation" design is also reflected in detail optimization: conveyor belt joints use "hot vulcanization connection" with strength over 90% of the belt body to avoid conveyance interruptions from joint breaks, adapting to high-load demands in mines and continuous operations in ports; the conveyor belt tensioning device uses "hydraulic automatic tensioning," real-time adjusting tension force based on material weight (tension range 8-15 kN) to avoid belt slippage from looseness or tearing from overtightening, adapting to conveyance needs of different weight materials. The hydraulic system uses a "graded hydraulic pump station," adapted to overall machine power of 166-1410 kW per specifications, with oil tank capacity 1200-2500 L and quadruple high-precision filtration (5 μm precision), achieving NAS 7 level hydraulic oil cleanliness to reduce hydraulic component wear, with system annual failure rate below 0.3%. Hydraulic pipelines use "stainless steel fittings + high-pressure hoses" (working pressure 31.5 MPa), with excellent corrosion resistance adapting to multi-dust environments in mines and high salt spray in ports; pipeline layout uses "modular quick-connect" design, shortening local fault replacement time to under 1.5 hours and reducing maintenance difficulty for global customers in different regions.

Universal Scenario Electrical Control System

The electrical control system centers on "convenient operation in universal scenarios," equipped with a 15-inch high-definition HMI touch screen supporting multi-language switching in English, Russian, Spanish, Chinese, and more. The interface focuses on "quick parameter switching for different scenarios," storing 5 groups of universal operation programs (e.g., "mine ore reclaiming," "port coal stacking," "power plant grain transfer"), allowing one-click invocation when switching scenarios without repeated debugging, adapting to usage habits of operators in global different regions. The system supports three control modes, all optimized around "stable operations in universal scenarios":

• PLC full automatic mode: Through laser level meter + infrared positioning sensor, it real-time collects stockpile height and material density data, automatically planning stacking and reclaiming paths (e.g., "layered reclaiming in mines to avoid hard material impacts," "uniform stacking in ports to reduce spillage"), with stacking and reclaiming volume deviation ≤3%, achieving "unattended" universal operations;
• Remote control mode: Equipped with a 200 m range industrial-grade wireless remote controller (IP67 anti-interference compliant), operators can observe material status from safe areas, real-time fine-tuning bucket wheel speed and slewing angle—for example, remotely avoiding large impurities during mine reclaiming, or adjusting discharge height in port stacking to match ships;
• Manual mode: Quick switch in emergencies, with manual interface featuring "universal condition warning" function; when detecting abnormal material density (e.g., large hard rock blocks in mine stockpiles), it automatically prompts parameter adjustments for reclaiming, ensuring operational safety.

Modular Transportation and Efficient Installation

Addressing global customers' pain points of "significant cross-border transportation differences and varying installation conditions," the mobile Bucket Wheel from ZOOMRY adopts a "universal modular disassembly + high-ratio pre-assembly" design. While ensuring universal performance, it substantially reduces transportation and installation difficulties, guaranteeing rapid commissioning for projects in different regions.

Modular Disassembly

Based on "global logistics universal standards," the equipment is disassembled into 5 standard units: "bucket wheel stacking and reclaiming module, track chassis module, slewing drive module, electrical control module, hydraulic module." Each unit's dimensions are strictly adapted to 40-foot high containers (length 12.03 m × width 2.35 m × height 2.69 m), requiring no special transport permits: the bucket wheel stacking and reclaiming module reduces height to 2.4 m via hydraulic folding of the bucket wheel arm, with weight controlled under 32 tons, adapting to height limits of road transport in most global regions; the track chassis module is divided into left and right parts, each ≤45 tons, movable via ordinary forklifts at the project site without heavy lifting equipment; electrical control and hydraulic modules are integrated into waterproof boxes (dimensions 1.5 m × 1.2 m × 2.0 m), with IP65 protection rating adapting to high-humidity maritime transport environments. Compared to the "special transportation + oversized customs declaration" mode of traditional integral bucket wheel machines, cross-border logistics costs are reduced by 40%, and core components (e.g., bucket wheel blades, track plates) receive "anti-rust + anti-collision" double-layer packaging before leaving the factory, with wear-resistant protective film applied to blade surfaces to avoid precision damage from vibrations during transport, adapting to logistics conditions in global multi-regions like Europe, Africa, and Southeast Asia.

High Pre-Assembly Rate for Rapid Commissioning

Before leaving the factory, the equipment completes 85% pre-assembly, focusing on "stacking and reclaiming coordination in universal scenarios": precise docking of bucket wheel and reclaiming arm (coaxiality deviation ≤0.05 mm), no-load debugging of slewing drive system (slewing precision calibrated to ≤0.3°), hydraulic pipeline sealing test (72 hours leak-free), electrical control system universal program pre-setting, and 100-hour full-load trial run of "simulated multi-scenario stacking and reclaiming" (alternating mine hard materials and port bulk materials operations), ensuring no faults during on-site installation. On-site, only 3 core processes are needed: first, modular unit splicing, connecting bucket wheel module and slewing module, left and right track chassis parts via high-strength bolts (M36, torque 2200 N·m), completable by 3 people in 3 hours; second, final docking of hydraulic pipelines and electrical plugs, using "quick-connect fittings + color-coded anti-error design" (interfaces marked with corresponding scenario parameters like "mine mode" or "port mode"), taking ≤1.5 hours; third, universal parameter fine-tuning, calibrating bucket wheel reclaiming height and slewing angle via laser positioner to adapt to site stockpile layout, taking ≤1 hour. An experienced team can complete all installation, debugging, and commissioning within 1.5 days, shortening the industry average 3-day installation cycle by 50%, adapting to varying installation capabilities of global customers. ZOOMRY provides multi-language technical manuals including scenario debugging guides, highlighting universal precautions for heavy equipment installation (e.g., bolt tightening torque, hydraulic system venting steps), along with 24-hour online technical support. Through video guidance, it assists global customers in resolving installation queries without requiring professional heavy equipment installation teams for deployment.
