AUTOMATIC CONVEYOR BELT FOR WAGONS LOADING CB15

The Automatic Conveyor Belt for Loading Wagons has been designed and made for loading wagons that transport and unload ballast.
It can be accommodated to customer specifications.

The CB15 belt can be placed on the rail wagon and can be easily transported by standard road trailer. The system is composed of a rubber belt having roller supports and driven by a Diesel engine.

The ballast moves from the ballast-cleaning machine at the head of the train. During this ballast transfer, the operator can decide from which wagon he will start the load (generally from the last unit).

The machine can be operated automatically through radio control. The deflector of the trolley descends on the rubber belt, forcing the ballast to fall inside the wagon below (plough effect). With double-powered sensor system, the PLC drives independently the load of the wagon until the procedure is completed.

Once the loading process is completed, the PLC installed on every single belt activates the automatic cycle of the preceding belt until the loading of all wagons is completed. After the loading operation, the belt places the trolley at the point of rest and stops. It is possible to keep the engine on if necessary while working during the night.

Thanks to this automatic system, one operator is able to manage the load of more than one wagon, following the working operations on the monitor installed on each belt, thus avoiding dangerous maneuvres of climb and descent from the wagons.

An electric board operates the whole system with PLC pushbutton to control 10 belts simultaneously or independently.
