TPS, Terex Fuchs commission bulk handling solution
Terex Port Solutions (TPS) together with the Terex Fuchs team in Bad Sch?nborn (Baden-W?rttemberg) for the first time commissioned a jointly developed custom bulk handling solution for use in an industrial company at Henkel AG & Co KGaA (Henkel) in D?sseldorf. A Terex? Fuchs SHL860D material handler with a cranked boom and a maximum working radius of 18 m was fitted to a rail-mounted undercarriage specially designed for this application. The new machine is operated on an existing 5 m elevated craneway with a track gauge of 3,500 mm spanning the coal storage area and the power plant installations of Henkel?s industrial power plant. In addition to coal, it also transfers combustion residues into the power plant?s hoppers or on to road trucks. The Terex Fuchs SHL860D material handler is operated with eco-friendly energy from the electrical system in the works.
