Cleveland Commissions FFT Shiploader Chute in Callao, Peru

South American company Odebrecht has recently assigned Cleveland Cascades Limited to commission the new Free Fall Telescopic Loading Chute for Muelle Minerales in the Callao region of Peru.

The system has been designed to load Lead, Copper and Zinc Concentrates into vessels at rates of up to 2,500 tonnes per hour, and utilises an actuating and rotating trimming spout at the outlet in order to load into hard-to-reach areas of the vessel. The chute is also housed in a support frame in order to allow up to 30° inclination vertically from either side.
