7 APPLICATIONS

Rear Tipping Truck Receival

Surface mounted for rear tipping trucks. Combined receival, storage and feeding. With or without weather enclosure. Eliminates the need for major excavations.

METALLIC FILTER CAKE 50tph

Front End Loader Feed

Mounted on a simple pad, ideal for material recovery via wheel loader. Can be skid mounted for relocation. Caters for the largest buckets such as the WA1200.

IRON ORE TAILINGS 1500tph IRON ORE 2500tph

Side-Tip Truck Receival

The side-tip truck application is perfectly suited for use by road-trains, making receival incredibly efficient. Multiple hoppers can be employed on a single machine. Photo shows one of twelve units installed at a multi-user facility in Western Australia.

VARIOUS ORES 1000tph

Train Loading & Unloading

With it’s ultra-low profile, the LPF serves as a viable alternative to conventional feeders beneath rail lines and car dumpers at receival facilities in the port or processing plant.

Elevated discharge means wagons can IRON ORE 2500tph be loaded directly from each side.

Stockpile Reclaim

Ideal for use in the restricted space beneath stockpile, minimising civil costs. The LPF acts as a feeder and transfer conveyor in one. Stockpile tunnel reclaimers up to 42m long have been installed.

NICKEL REJECTS 1900tph HARD ROCK 2000tph

8 Dozer Trap

Similar to stockpile reclaim applications, the LPF can also be configured as a dozer trap for simple stockpile management and easily relocated.

COAL 3000tph

Ore Bins & Screen Feeding

With a number of widths and load capacities available, the LPF is perfectly suited to sit beneath high capacity ore bins and silos.

Models up to 4.0m belt width are available to efficiently feed the widest screens used SCREEN FEEDING IRON ORE 4000tph today.

Filter Press Discharge

Due to its low profile, the LPF can sit directly beneath filter presses to receive filter cakes and feed toward downstream plant equipment or vehicle receival. The ability to have a horizontal hopper of a length to suit the application followed by an inclined section means the hopper capacity can be the maximised for best RED MUD TAILINGS possible efficiency. The LPF can also be reversed for emergency dump of material.

At the Crushing Station

With a number of widths and load capacities available, the LPF is perfectly suited to sit either above or below sizers and crushers. Optional features are available for use with very abrasive lumpy or sharp materials.

PRIMARY CRUSHED ORE 1500tph

Ejector Truck ‘NEW’

A more efficient alternative to conventional ejector trays, the LPF was configured to convert ADT trays to a ‘live bottom’ design, eliminating the need to tip the tray for discharging. Also ideal for laying ballast or road base, whilst the truck moves forward.

GOLD ORE 2000tph

9 Case Study: IMPROVED STOCKPILE EXTRACTION WITH MINIMAL DOWNTIME AND CAPITAL WORKS COSTS

Issue on site: The LPF would act as both feeder and conveyor - extracting and carrying ore Under the existing setup, the site from the stockpile simultaneously on was struggling to achieve sufficient the same machine for approximately extraction from the stockpile. The 40m towards an inclined section, AUSTRALIA existing extraction method utilised where it would be deposited directly conventional feeders submerged onto a conventional conveyor. in conventional pre-cast concrete tunnels. Installing a secondary tunnel Thanks to the LPF’s ultra-low profile, with conventional belt or apron feeder the height requirement of the pre-cast Location: extraction and associated chutes tunnel sections could be brought Cadia Valley, onto a collector conveyor belt would down, and the need for additional New South Wales prove expensive, not least due to the chute-work eliminated thanks to the height requirement (5m plus), and built-in incline section. The end result Operation Type: would take the plant out of production would be a substantial reduction in Open Cut Gold Mine for excessively long periods. One civil-works. alternative would be to use a front end loader to supplement the extraction, This in turn meant installation could be but this too would prove both time completed with minimum disruption to and labour intensive. stockpile operations. A culvert would be dug-out using excavators and The Solution: the new pre-cast concrete tunnels Transmin’s solution, was to utilise dropped into place, allowing the the Low Profile Feeder (LPF) with its stockpile to be quickly reformed and low 1

10 Case Study: LOW PROFILE FEEDER (LPF)TM ‘RECLAIM HOPPER’ FOR IRON ORE TAILINGS

Scope of Project: The Solution:

Transmin’s client, a global EPC Transmin’s Low Profile Feeder (LPF)TM servicing the mining and cement Reclaimer Hopper was the perfect industries, were looking for a cost- choice for their situation because AUSTRALIA effective way to transfer stockpiled iron it fills the role of both feeder and ore tailings from a series of filter presses conveyor, and allows for receival, to an overland conveyor at a newly storage and feeding to be done with established iron ore and magnetite the one machine, saving on additional mine in Mid-Western Australia. capital expenditure. Location: 220km SE of Geraldton, The EPC had been hired by the site It is also designed to have a bulk- Western Australia contractor and operator, to come up loading hopper fitted to the frame, so with a solution to the problem and it can be fed using front-end-loaders Operation Type: decided that the most efficient way and other bucket machinery, which Iron Ore/Magnetite Mine to do this was to use a low profile was one of the project’s primary ‘Reclaim Hopper’ that could be fed iron requirements.
