BPS offers container loading system
<![CDATA[

The BPS Container Loading System from Best Process Solutions Inc. (BPS), Brunswick, Ohio, is engineered to load 20-foot and 40-foot shipping containers quickly and efficiently with ferrous and nonferrous metals for export. The systems’ three major components are a vibratory hopper feeder, loading belt conveyor and system controls.

The surge hopper is constructed of ½-inch plate and has a holding capacity of approximately 15 cubic yards. The hopper includes a manually adjustable product flow control gate to control the product feed rate. The hopper and vibratory feeder share a support base.

The cantilevered belt conveyor is engineered with a belt speed of 500 feet to 1,000 feet per minute to allow for more material to stack up in the container, BPS says. The loading operation is simple: A truck backs up to the conveyor, allowing the conveyor to go inside the container. Then the operator starts the vibratory feeder and conveyor. As the container is loading, the truck driver slowly pulls forward.

The BPS container loading system includes system controls. The control package includes a variable frequency drive for the vibratory feeder and the belt conveyor mounted in a NEMA (National Electrical Manufacturers Association) 12/4 UL/cull listed enclosure with all necessary operator functions. Load cells or a belt scale can be included as an option.
