1. A Shiploader is a huge machine used for loading bulk solid materials like iron ore, coal,
fertilizers, grains into ships for transportation by sea. Shiploaders are a very common
sight in ports and jetties from where bulk materials are exported.
It mainly consist of an extendable arm or boom, a belt conveyor and a mobile structure to
support the boom. It is usually mounted on rails and sometimes on tyres and can move in
order to be able to reach the whole length of the ship. The boom also can move front and
back, up and down by separate drives so that it can fill all the corners of the ship holds.
Shiploaders are built in capacities from 1000 to 15000 TPH (tonnes per hour). The height of
a shiploader can be in excess of 20 meters and the boom can extend to a length of more than
60 meters.
High Angle Sandwich Belt Type Ship loader.
A Mobile High Angle Shiploader can be found in the Port of Adelaide, Australia. The mobile

2. sandwich belt "Snake" is carried on a tripod of twin motorized rubber tires. Each set of
twin tires is mounted at a vertical kingpin and can rotate 360 degrees about that vertical
axis. Thus, without repositioning, it can set up to travel in any direction. With the tail
tires fixed, the front tires can be oriented and traveled for a slewing motion. Australia's
first Snake Ship loader elevates a variety of high value ores from trucks to ship at an
angle of 50 degrees. Materials for export are trucked to the dock and dumped onto a special
trap loader type feeder. The ore is fed continuously and uniformly onto the mobile snake's
receiving chute. The snake ship loader elevates the bulk over the ship's deck to the hatch
where it is discharged into the ship's hold. At the discharge, a special telescoping chute,
with rotating, pivoting spoon, facilitates even and complete filling of the holds.

3. A "Coutinuous ship loader with Adjustable Arm" is widely applied in docks to lad ships of
bulk cargoes auch as coal, ore, grain and cement etc. Ship lader struchture is composed of
steel structure, jib belt conveyor, feeder tripper, luffing mechanism, slew mechanism,
travel mechanism, spray system, chute,electrical system,necessary ssafety related
components and accessory devices. Ship loader jib could slew with a range of 270
Degree,luffing angle within 90 Degree, prolong and shorten itself in up and down directioin
with a special telescoing chute to avoid dust or powder splash; This ship loader is the

4. first flexible continuous bulk ship loader with 400 ton per hour capacity could be found in
the Huangshi Port,Hubei,China made by Yufei Heavy Industries Group.
