ZOOMRY
Zoomry Heavy Industry's ZRSL-58 mobile shiploader is specifically designed for bulk materials such as coal, ore, and sand/aggregates. This flexible bulk material handling equipment, equipped with a self-propelled system, efficiently completes ship loading operations. It adapts to various vessel types including Handymax bulk carriers (30,000-50,000 DWT) and Panamax vessels (60,000-80,000 DWT), achieving a maximum loading rate of 8,400 tons per hour through its telescopic boom that precisely positions cargo holds.
The equipment adopts modular design, with key components including a fully hydraulic-driven tire chassis supporting 360° steering (relocation speed: 0.5-1.5 km/h), a high-strength wear-resistant Conveyor Belt (2.4m width) offering at least 3 times longer lifespan than standard materials, a 15-30m telescopic boom (-10° to +15° tilt range) to accommodate vessel draft variations, and an intelligent control system integrating PLC auto-correction, load monitoring, and remote maintenance modules. Zoomry's stone/sand mobile shiploader is not limited to port operations—its robust functionality enables efficient multi-scenario operations and rapid relocation.
Stone/Sand Loading Requirements
The physical characteristics of stone and sand significantly impact conveying equipment during port operations. For instance: granite and basalt materials with Mohs hardness levels of 6-7 can reduce the service life of standard conveyor belts to less than 6 months under continuous operation; aggregate particle sizes ranging from 5-150mm may cause blockages or belt misalignment; tidal fluctuations causing 2-5m water depth variations at berths and mining site slopes exceeding 15° collectively accelerate equipment wear.
To address these challenges, Zoomry's ZRSL series mobile shiploaders employ ST5000-grade steel cord conveyor belts with 12mm ceramic lining, improving impact resistance by 40%. The hydraulic automatic tensioning system ensures stable transportation of materials below 150mm in size, while high-performance diesel engines enable 10-hour continuous operation in off-grid environments. The stone/sand mobile shiploader significantly reduces maintenance frequency for highly abrasive materials through enhanced wear-resistant designs and intelligent adjustment systems.
ZRSL Mobile Shiploader Technical Specifications
| Parameter Category | Specification |
|---|---|
| Processing Capacity | 300-8,400 tons/hour |
| Conveyor Belt Width | 1.2-2.4m (dynamically matched) |
| Power System | Diesel/Electric Dual-mode（300-800kW） |
| Environmental Design | Dust ≤10mg/m³, Noise ≤75dB(A) |
The performance parameters of mobile shiploaders directly affect loading efficiency. For example, the equipment can handle 300-8,400 tons of materials per hour, with conveyor belt width dynamically adjusted between 1.2-2.4m based on workload demands. The dual-mode power system (diesel/electric) covers 300-800kW, enabling operations in remote mining areas without grid access. Environmental compliance includes dust emissions controlled below 10mg/m³ and operational noise under 75dB(A), meeting EU CE and ISO 14001 standards.
Zoomry's ZRSL-58 model features a Siemens PLC control system seamlessly integrated with port TOS (Terminal Operating System) to achieve fully automated operations. In a large-scale sand export terminal project in the UAE, the ZRSL-58 operated continuously for 12 months, accumulating over 10 million tons of handled materials while exhibiting only one-third of the industry average conveyor belt wear rate. Its core advantages include a custom-designed 30m telescopic boom capable of covering all 8 holds of Panamax vessels, coupled with a hydraulic lifting chassis that automatically adjusts an 8° tilt angle to perfectly adapt to tidal berth variations. The 8,400-ton/hour processing capacity of the stone/sand mobile shiploader has become a critical solution for cost reduction and efficiency improvement in major ports.

Mobile vs Fixed Shiploader Comparison
| Comparison Aspect | Mobile Shiploader | Fixed Shiploader |
|---|---|---|
| Deployment Period | 3-7 days (no infrastructure) | 6-12 months (requires rail/wharf) |
| Cost per Ton | CNY 0.8-1.2/ton | CNY 1.5-2.5/ton |
Mobile shiploaders comprehensively outperform fixed systems in flexibility, cost-effectiveness, and applicability. With a deployment period of only 3-7 days requiring no infrastructure, and a per-ton cost as low as CNY 0.8-1.2 (30%+ savings over fixed systems), they demonstrate clear advantages. For instance, a Southeast Asian port switching to mobile equipment increased annual sand/aggregate throughput from 8 million to 11.2 million tons while reducing vessel dwell time by 60%. These systems are particularly suitable for medium/small ports, seasonal transportation, and temporary mining terminals, enabling multi-berth coordination through rapid relocation.
How to Choose the Right Mobile Shiploader
Equipment selection must prioritize alignment with actual working conditions. Technically, focus on material hardness, particle size distribution, and daily throughput requirements—for example, granite handling demands models with ≥2m belt width and ≥4.5m/s belt speed. Site conditions require attention to minimum turning radius (≤15m) and slope adaptability (≥20°).
Choosing Zoomry—a supplier with extensive port machinery expertise—ensures full lifecycle services: from preliminary operational analysis and customized designs (e.g., dust covers or cold-start modules) to post-sales 48-hour global emergency response and 10-year warranties on critical components. A case in point: at Indonesia's PT Krakatau Steel iron ore project, Zoomry optimized boom hydraulic systems to improve relocation efficiency by 35% in muddy rainy-season conditions.
Industry Application Cases
Case 1: Southeast Asian Sand Export Port Upgrade
Facing a 3.2m tidal range that reduced fixed system efficiency below 50%, the port adopted Zoomry's ZRSL-58 mobile shiploader with a hydraulic lifting chassis enabling real-time 4m height adjustments. Results included:
- Annual throughput increased from 8 million to 11.2 million tons
- Vessel turnover efficiency improved by 45%
- Remote monitoring system enabled online diagnosis of 90%+ faults
- Annual maintenance costs reduced by CNY 1.2 million
Case 2: Collaborative Operations at Jiangxi Granite Mine, China
