RADIAL STACKER Imperial Technologies Radial Stacker Winch “The radial stacker is a conveyor that sits on a wheeled truck”, explained Bruce Wagner, project manager with Imperial. “The truck sits on a railed track that forms a 150 foot radius semi-circle around the stacker. We designed it to handle a maximum load of 3000 tons of coal per hour.” The advantage of the radial stacker is that it gives the operator the option to create many multiple stacks of material or one continuous radial stack. This can be useful for sorting materials but it also gains the operator more stacking capacity as opposed to one large pile of material directly in front of the conveyor. The stacker is a 200 foot long conveyor that pivots at one end with the other end able to be raised and lowered. Positioned on a mounting plate sitting above the conveyor belt near the pivoting end of the stacker is a Thern 4WS26M26 electric winch, which serves as the means to raise and lower the grade of the stacker at the opposite end.

Imperial TechnologiesRadial Stacker Winch“The radial stacker is a conveyor that sits on

a wheeled truck”, explained Bruce Wagner,

project manager with Imperial. “The truck sits

on a railed track that forms a 150 foot radius

semi-circle around the stacker. We designed

it to handle a maximum load of 3000 tons of

coal per hour.”

The advantage of the radial stacker is that it

gives the operator the option to create many

multiple stacks of material or one continuous

radial stack. This can be useful for sorting

materials but it also gains the operator more

stacking capacity as opposed to one large pile

of material directly in front of the conveyor.

The stacker is a 200 foot long conveyor that

pivots at one end with the other end able to

be raised and lowered. Positioned on a

mounting plate sitting above the conveyor belt

near the pivoting end of the stacker is a Thern

4WS26M26 electric winch, which serves as

the means to raise and lower the grade of the

stacker at the opposite end.
