A mechanical ship unloader supporting one of the largest ports in western Japan.
Kanon Pier Co., Ltd. operates one of the largest and most strategic port terminals in western Japan, with a history spanning 50 years. The company considered introducing the most efficient successor model on the market, prompted by the fact that their long-used unloader had reached the end of its lifespan. After thorough evaluations, the company chose the Portlink Ship Unloader as the solution that best meets their needs.

basic information
The portal link unloader consists of a bridge structure with a rotating body at the top, a truss-structured horizontal boom, and a kick-in/kick-out system equipped with a marine leg. The bulk cargo unloaded from the hold is transported at low speed to the pier by a high-performance horizontal chain conveyor. The marine leg is the key to the overall efficiency of the system and serves as the heart of the machine. The portal link's marine leg forms a column of raw materials within the trough of a vertical chain conveyor, unloading raw materials at a speed of 300 to 1,300 tons per hour. To prevent degradation of the raw materials, the transport is carried out at low speed. The automatic sink-in system allows the position of the raw material intake to sink to the optimal height within the raw materials during unloading operations, enabling stable rated capacity unloading. 【Advantages】 - High unloading efficiency - Low operating costs - Gentle transport of raw materials - Low energy consumption
