Its distinctive round chute design replaces a traditional chute's square corners, maximizing material flow while dramatically reducing build-up and spillage. Adjustable horizontal ...

At times, the iron ore was bone dry and dusty, leading to severe dust generation during handling in the chute. The iron ore is highly abrasive and would wear parts of the transfer chute that did not experience severe plugging. A rock-box design was implemented to reduce wear, but because the iron ore was cohesive at times, the chute …
