In the global bulk material handling sector, truck unloaders serve as critical equipment bridging logistics and production processes, with model selection directly impacting operational efficiency and cost control. As a leading manufacturer in bulk material handling with over 20 years of international market experience, we analyze scientific selection strategies for truck unloaders across diverse scenarios including port terminals, mining operations, and grain processing.
Port Terminals
High-frequency handling of bulk materials like coal and iron ore recommends the ZRLS-TU1800 wheeled truck unloader (capacity: 600-1800t/h), featuring 4-lane truck channels and compatibility with the ZR140SF mobile stacker (capacity: 2100m³/h) for integrated systems.
Grain Processing
The ZRLS-TU1400 wheeled truck unloader (capacity: 200-1000t/h) paired with enclosed conveying systems is ideal, with its low-profile receiving hopper (3.5m width) optimized for 50-ton grain trucks.
Mining Operations
The ZRLD-TU1800 tracked truck unloader (capacity: 600-1800t/h) is recommended, featuring hydraulic stabilizers for 5° slope adaptation and seamless integration with the ZR160SF mobile stacker (capacity: 3000m³/h) for 24/7 operations.

This nickel mining project located near the equator faced multiple operational challenges: The mining area featured natural slopes of 3-5°, mixed fleets of 80-150-ton mining trucks were in operation, and humidity levels exceeding 90% during rainy seasons accelerated equipment corrosion rates. The project required a daily processing capacity of no less than 80,000 tons while complying with local environmental regulations mandating dust concentration levels ≤20mg/m³ in the operational area.
ZOOMRY's engineering team selected the ZRLD-TU1800 tracked truck unloader as the core equipment. Its hydraulic dynamic leveling system automatically compensates for 5° slope deviations, ensuring precise alignment between mining trucks of various tonnages and the receiving hopper. For the high-humidity environment, the equipment features a dual-coating protection system - HG785D high-strength steel as the base material with a zinc-aluminum-nickel alloy surface coating. Third-party testing verified its salt spray corrosion resistance meets the ASTM B117 standard's 3,000-hour rating.
During implementation, the project innovatively introduced an "unloading-stacking" coordinated control system. Using OPC UA protocol, the ZRLD-TU1800 achieves data interoperability with the ZR160SF mobile stacker. When the truck unloader's processing capacity reaches the 1600t/h threshold, the stacker automatically switches to high-speed mode, increasing belt speed from 3.15m/s to 4.0m/s, improving overall system efficiency by 28%.
After 12 months of continuous operation monitoring, the equipment demonstrated outstanding performance in key metrics: Daily peak processing capacity exceeded 93,000 tons, power consumption per ton of ore decreased by 22% compared to the original system, and maintenance intervals extended from 500 hours to 850 hours. The dust control system achieved measured values of 15.7mg/m³ during dry season testing, helping the owner obtain ISO 14001 environmental management system certification.
