Power Generation Industry


The application of ship unloaders in the power generation industry is mainly reflected in the fuel delivery process of coal-fired power plants. The main function of a ship unloader is to unload coal and other fuels from ships and transport them to the fuel storage of power plants or directly into boilers, ensuring timely supply and efficient utilization of fuels. 

Types and characteristics of ship unloaders 

There are various types of ship unloaders, mainly including screw, bucket wheel, and chain bucket. These different types of ship unloaders each have their own characteristics:

Screw unloader

It has the advantages of intelligence, safety, efficiency, wide adaptability, and good universal performance. It can avoid direct contact between human body and materials, is suitable for remote control operation, reduces dust overflow, and lowers environmental risk.

Bucket wheel unloader

Suitable for large coal-fired power plants, it can efficiently process large amounts of coal, but the operation is relatively complex and requires on-site operators to operate according to control room instructions.

Chain bucket unloader

With a simple structure and easy maintenance, it is suitable for various types of ships and cargo, but has a low efficiency in handling wet or viscous materials.
