Designed for almost any kind of products in bulk, VIGAN loaders are suitable for all size of barges or vessels.
The loading is made mechanically: cargo can be for instance transported into the loading boom by integrated belt (eventually with a travelling movement) or chain conveyor and discharged by gravity into the ship hold thanks to a telescopic loading chute.
The loading boom is usually mounted on a slewing ring.
The combination of telescopic and rotating movements allows continuous and uniform loading operations of the ship holds.
VIGAN loaders can be especially designed according to customer’s needs: cargo, ship size, capacity required...
In most ports, controlling dust emission is not only a major
concern but also a main objective.
Several optional devices are available to adapt the loader to specific working conditions.
