Nijhof-Wassink Transport, a specialist in bulk transport by road, rail and water has recently invested again in a second Dino bulk truck loader from Van Beek of The Netherlands. We spoke to Mr Tonny Haselbekke, business manager at Nijhof-Wassink Intermodal.
“Because of this durability we have decided to buy another Dino bulk truck loader from Van Beek. We will now use the two bulk truck loaders alongside one another and fully dedicate them to the medium to be transferred. By always using the Dinos for transferring the same product, we immediately save a lot in cleaning costs. In spite of the fact that the Dino can be fully and easily cleaned, the man-hours always make a difference for the cleaning and waiting time for drying.”
“We have chosen Van Beek again because they actively help us think things out and come up with solutions. For example a vibrating screen has been fitted in the demountable expansion rim instead of in the inlet hopper itself, so it is still possible to use the Dino without a screen if necessary.
“An additional advantage due to the vibration is that any medium that has clumped together is separated again. You can imagine when a big-bag is emptied in one go a large amount of powder flows into the hopper of the bulk truck loader. The medium can also stick together in the inlet hopper, resulting in a bridge being formed. To solve this problem Van Beek has fitted pneumatic beaters to the walls.”
