Aerobelt Solution
The existing chain conveyor was removed and replaced with two Aerobelt conveyors. The existing steelwork was structurally assessed, and could be reused with only slight modification due to the light weight of Aerobelt conveyors. The farmers were pleased as the increased capacity reduced the unloading time on site and the conveyors were extremely reliable.
