Telescopic mobile Shiploader for Handymax and Panamax Vessels.pdf

The most notable feature of Zoomry's telescopic mobile ship loader is its flexible rotation and telescoping capabilities, which adapt to different vessel sizes and loading requirements. The rotation function allows the ship loader to adjust flexibly around a fixed point, enabling a ±90-degree rotation to ensure precise material placement into the cargo hold, eliminating the need for repeated adjustments of the vessel or loader. The telescoping arm design allows the loader's delivery port to extend deep into the cargo hold, enhancing loading uniformity and overall operational efficiency. Additionally, the lifting system automatically adjusts the loader's height to accommodate vessels with different drafts.

1. Telescopic mobile Shiploader for
Handymax and Panamax Vessels

Handymax and Panamax vessels are two common types of ships in global ports,
primarily responsible for transporting coal, ore, grain, fertilizer, and other bulk cargoes.
Handymax vessels are typically 170 to 200 meters in length, with a deadweight tonnage
(DWT) of 40,000 to 60,000 tons, suitable for most large ports and often equipped with
onboard cranes. Panamax vessels are generally around 225 meters in length, with a
DWT of approximately 65,000 tons, and are commonly used on routes that require
passage through the Panama Canal. Due to the large cargo volumes and high demand
for these vessel types, the efficiency requirements for loading and unloading operations
are extremely stringent, especially when handling bulk cargoes such as coal, ore, and
grain, which have high fluidity. Improving efficiency and reducing material loss are key
concerns for shippers.

2. Vessel Requirements for Ship Loaders
• Loading Efficiency: Due to the limited port stay time of Handymax and
Panamax vessels and the need to prevent bulk cargoes from moisture- induced
clumping, large volumes of cargo must be loaded quickly within a short time.
Therefore, ship loaders or other material handling equipment must offer fast
loading and unloading speeds, reducing waiting times and improving port
turnaround efficiency.
• Adaptability to Various Materials: Equipment used for bulk cargo handling in
ports must not be limited to specific material types. Thus, ship loaders must be
capable of flexibly handling various bulk cargoes, including ore, coal, grain, etc.
Their design should prevent leakage, spillage, or contamination during
transportation, with structural and component features such as anti- corrosion
and dust-resistant designs to accommodate different material characteristics.
• Flexibility: Ship loading equipment must have rotation, tilting, and telescoping
functions to adapt to various vessel types and cargo hold distributions in ports.
It should adjust to different hold structures and quickly switch between hatches
after loading, enhancing operational efficiency.
• Environmental Requirements: With increasingly stringent environmental
regulations, ports must comply with environmental standards. Therefore, ship
loaders need to be equipped with efficient dust suppression systems to reduce
dust emissions, protecting both workers and the environment.

Adaptability to Different Vessel Types, Reducing Material Loss
Traditional loading methods, such as belt conveyors, involve significant costs due to site
requirements and construction timelines. Grab buckets often result in substantial
material loss during loading, especially when handling bulk cargoes like coal, fertilizer,
and grain, which are prone to dust and spillage. Zoomry's telescopic mobile ship loader
combines precise delivery technology with rotation and telescoping functions to
accurately place materials into designated areas of the cargo hold, reducing spillage
and dust. The intelligent flow control system automatically adjusts the delivery speed
based on the flow characteristics of different materials, ensuring stable and even
material placement while preventing overflow. Furthermore, the intelligent control
system monitors the cargo hold's filling status in real time and adjusts the loading angle
automatically, ensuring uniform cargo distribution, significantly reducing material loss,
and improving loading efficiency.

Eco-Friendly Design, Reducing Dust Pollution
During the loading of high-dust cargoes such as coal and ore, spilled dust not only
pollutes the surrounding environment but also affects workers' health. Zoomry's telescopic mobile ship loader effectively suppresses dust emissions through a series of
eco-friendly designs, enhancing operational safety. The enclosed conveyor system
prevents dust from escaping during material transfer. Spraying devices and bag filter
systems help effectively suppress dust generation, ensuring clean air during
transportation. Additionally, the use of flexible hose delivery ports allows materials to
fall slowly and steadily into the cargo hold, reducing dust caused by high drop heights,
optimizing the loading process, and meeting increasingly stringent environmental
regulations.


Port and Terminal Use Cases
The Port of Balboa is one of Panama's most important ports, located at the Pacific entrance of the Panama Canal, handling bulk cargoes such as ore, grain, and fertilizer.

6. As one of the major container and bulk cargo ports in Latin America, the Port of Balboa
has an annual throughput of approximately 30 million tons.
In recent years, to improve loading efficiency and reduce environmental impact, the
Port of Balboa decided to introduce Zoomry's telescopic mobile ship loader. The port
primarily handles iron ore, grain (such as rice and corn), and fertilizer, which are prone
to dust and material loss during loading, especially in bulk cargo operations. Controlling
dust and reducing spillage became critical issues.
With the rotation and telescoping functions of Zoomry's telescopic mobile ship loader,
the loader can precisely align with vessels of different sizes, ensuring fast and accurate
material delivery into the cargo hold. Compared to traditional grab bucket loading
methods, the telescopic ship loader improved loading efficiency by approximately 30%,
significantly speeding up the loading process.
In terms of material loss, the Port of Balboa's Zoomry telescopic mobile ship loader is
equipped with a precise flow control system that automatically adjusts the delivery
speed based on the physical characteristics of different cargoes, such as iron ore, rice,
and corn, preventing overflow and loss. The intelligent control system monitors the
cargo hold's loading status in real time and adjusts the delivery angle automatically,
ensuring uniform material distribution and improving loading accuracy, thereby
reducing material loss. Since the system's implementation, the Port of Balboa has
reduced material loss by approximately 150,000 tons annually, significantly lowering
material waste and port economic losses.
In terms of environmental protection, the Port of Balboa has strict requirements for port
environmental protection, especially during the loading of ore and grain, which are
prone to dust generation. To address this, the port adopted Zoomry's telescopic mobile
ship loader's enclosed conveyor system, spraying system, and dust removal devices,
greatly reducing dust pollution. The enclosed belt conveyor system effectively prevents
dust from escaping, while the spraying and dust removal system suppresses dust during
loading. The flexible hose delivery port design allows materials to fall slowly into the
cargo hold, reducing dust diffusion caused by height differences, ensuring port
environmental and worker health safety, and meeting Panama's high environmental
standards.
