At a Glance

Acoustic Cleaners have successfully been used to increase the payload in bulk transport during the loading cycle. The Acoustic Cleaner is sounded periodically and the effect is to level out the material in the bulker, thus allowing additional payload of up to 10%.

In Detail

Materials handling and bulk materials handling provides challenges to plant engineers and planners. The importance of transferring and processing materials is paramount in almost all engineering production. Acoustic cleaners are used anywhere that bulk materials are processed generated, stored or transported these use sound to prevent material blockages and build up.

Acoustic cleaners have been successfully installed at conveyor transfer points, for ship and tanker offloading as well as ducts, hoppers and storage vessels.
