| INTRABULK RECEPTION UNIT
The Schenck Process IntraBulk Reception Unit is a world leading mechanical conveying solution. This bulk intake system is capable of receiving materials from trucks or end loaders and then feeding process systems at rates up to 500 tons per hour. The heavy-duty system has proved to be successful in the cement, ore, and mineral industries as well as many others.
As an intake device the IntraBulk operates based on the principle of a wide belt apron feeder. This design allows the IntraBulk to properly operate while handling a broad range of materials including coal, limestone, iron ore, sludge, grain, and clay. Because there is no risk of bridging, the IntraBulk can be used as a buffer store as well as providing regulated feed.
The operating principle behind the IntraBulk is to receive material from road tipping vehicles or front end loaders and then conveying and elevating the materials for delivery into the process. This is achieved without recourse to ground excavations and expensive civil engineering. Normally a minimal height ramp (typically 30 inches) is all that is required.
