Why APPI: With a belt measuring 80 feet long and 54 inches wide, a radial stacking conveyor recently delivered by Kolberg-Pioneer is building small mountains of wood chips for their customer in Hazelhurst, Georgia, at a rate of up to 450 tons per hour. Keeping the conveyor tip above the top of the pile is a task assigned to one of our Columbia HL8000 hoists.
Rated at 8,000 lbs of line pull with a line speed of just under 34 feet a minute on the first layer, it is rigged with two parts of line to double the effective line pull. The gear train is totally enclosed and receives a continuous oil bath inside the cast and machined hoist housings and supports.
A 10 hp severe duty motor controlled through a Variable Frequency Drive, planetary reduction, an automatic brake, and extremely durable polyurethane paint all contribute to making this unit the perfect choice as the radial stacking conveyor hoist on this machine.
