Truck loading conveyor

What is a truck loading conveyor?

Truck loading conveyor is a device specially designed to load bulk goods (such as grain, powder, granules) or packaged goods (boxes, bags) from the ground or production line to the truck cargo hold quickly and efficiently. It can be fixed, mobile or telescopic, depending on actual needs. As a flexible material handling solution, it is mainly composed of a belt conveyor body, a mobile chassis, a lifting and adjusting device, a drive system, etc. It is suitable for loading and unloading operations of powder materials, granular materials, bagged materials, boxes, etc. The manufacturer meets customers' requirements for efficiency, convenience and work intensity under different working conditions through structural modular design and multiple functional configurations.

What are the common types of truck loading conveyors?

Truck loading conveyors can be divided into many types according to the conveying method, structural form and applicable materials, including truck loading inclined screw conveyors, truck loading telescopic belt conveyors and truck loading mobile belt conveyors. Each type has targeted structural design to adapt to different loading requirements, operating intensity and site conditions.

①Truck loading inclined screw conveyor

Inclined screw conveyor is a loading equipment that pushes the material up by rotating spiral blades. It is often used to lift and convey powdered and granular materials to trucks, tank trucks, silos and other containers

Structural features: closed pipeline structure to prevent dust leakage; the inclination angle is generally between 30° and 45°; the conveying height can reach 3 to 6 meters

Applicable materials: cement powder, lime powder, grain particles, soybean meal, premix, dry mortar, etc.

②Truck loading telescopic belt conveyor

Telescopic belt conveyor has a conveyor belt section that can be telescoped forward and backward, which is suitable for docking vehicles or containers of different depths. It is widely used in the logistics, e-commerce, express delivery, building materials and other industries for fast loading/unloading of cartons, bags and bulk goods.

Structural features: The belt section can be freely extended and retracted in 2~3 levels, up to more than 15 meters; the extension speed, motor drive, and lifting adjustment can be equipped with frequency conversion control; rollers/universal wheels can be installed to achieve movement

Applicable materials: cartons, woven bags, fertilizer bags, express parcels, powder bags and other medium and light packaging products

③Truck-mounted mobile belt conveyor

General-purpose mobile conveying equipment, commonly used for temporary or flexible loading and unloading operations in warehouses, freight yards, grain depots, ports, etc., supports horizontal or small-angle inclined conveying of light or medium-sized materials

Structural features: integrated conveying structure, belt length is generally 5~15 meters; equipped with universal wheels or rubber wheels

Applicable materials: rice, beans, building materials, coal, feed, packaging bags, groceries, etc.

What is the working principle of a truck loading conveyor?

The main working principle of a truck loading conveyor is to transfer materials from the ground to the inside of a truck or container through the continuous operation of a spiral or belt conveyor belt. Its working process is as follows:

Feed port: Materials enter the truck loading conveyor from a production line, warehouse or other source through a silo or conveyor belt.

Transmission: Materials move along the conveyor through the conveyor belt or spiral system of the truck loading conveyor.

Loading: The conveyor belt or spiral belt transports the materials to the loading area of ​​the truck, and adjusts the angle or speed of the conveyor through the control system so that the materials are evenly and quickly loaded into the truck cargo hold.

What are the advantages of a truck loading conveyor?

Materials will face many problems and challenges during transportation. Let's talk about how truck loading conveyors solve the problems.

Solve uneven loading

The inventory is concentrated on the truck, resulting in unbalanced loading weight or low space utilization. Truck loading conveyors can use telescopic belt pipe machines that can extend into the truck and dynamically adjust the unloading position to ensure uniform distribution.

Handle material loss or verification

Fragile inventory materials (such as grain) may deteriorate due to extrusion, or sensitive inventory (such as food raw materials) may deteriorate due to quality. The screw conveyor of the truck loading conveyor adjusts the speed (such as 20-50 RPM) to reduce mechanical damage to the unloading.

Prevent accumulation and poor flow

Sticky or wet terminals (such as wet grain, sticky powder) may block the pipeline channel and affect loading efficiency. Truck loading conveyors can use U-groove spiral pipe machines. Variable pitch screws or shaftless designs can be used to reduce unloading.

Avoid simultaneous flying and environmental pollution

Powdered inventory is prone to generate a lot of pollution during loading, polluting the environment and may cause health or safety hazards. The truck loading conveyor adopts a U-shaped trough spiral pipe machine, which can be equipped with a cover plate or a pipe structure to reduce overflow.

Application of truck loading conveyor

The application of truck loading conveyors is mainly concentrated in logistics, warehousing, agricultural product processing, building materials loading and unloading, grain storage, industrial production and other scenarios that require efficient manual replacement of loading and unloading operations. Its core function is to quickly, continuously and smoothly transport materials from the ground or production line to the inside of the truck compartment, or unload in the opposite direction, thereby greatly improving loading and unloading efficiency, reducing labor costs and reducing the labor intensity of workers.

Logistics warehousing: Truck loading conveyor is used to transport goods from the inside of the warehouse to the truck for distribution. Whether it is small goods or large goods, the truck loading conveyor can complete the loading task quickly and accurately.

Mining: Truck loading conveyor is used to load the mined ore, coal and other materials onto the transport truck, which can adapt to the harsh working conditions and achieve efficient and stable material loading.

Construction: Truck loading conveyor is used to load construction materials such as sand and gravel onto the truck and transport them to the construction site. The conveying position and angle can be flexibly adjusted according to the layout of the construction site and the material requirements to ensure the timely supply of materials.

Port terminal: Truck loading conveyor is used to load goods from the yard onto the truck for transportation to other places. Ports have a wide variety of goods and a large flow rate. Truck loading conveyor can quickly and efficiently complete the loading operation of goods and ensure the smooth operation of port logistics.

Truck loading conveyor provides efficient, flexible and safe material loading solutions in multiple industries. It improves loading efficiency and reduces manual labor through automated control systems and adjustable designs. It is an indispensable equipment for material transportation in modern logistics, construction, chemical and other industries.
