Cement bulk trailer unloading steps

1. Before unloading, check whether the unloading butterfly valve, external air supply interface, exhaust valve and two inlets are closed and tightened. If it is not tightened, tighten it first to prevent air leakage;

2. Start the engine and shift the transmission to neutral while stepping on the clutch pedal to completely separate the transmission and the engine;

3. Turn on the solenoid valve switch of the power take-off and slowly loosen the clutch pedal to make the air compressor rotate;

4. Adjust the control handle of the control mechanism, and adjust the air compressor speed to about 900r/min and stabilize it;

5. When the pressure reaches 0.18MPa, first open the auxiliary blowing pipe, then open the front and rear bin unloading disc valves to start unloading, after which the air compressor pointer will stabilize a certain value;

6. When the air pressure drops to 0.04Mpa, the rear bin has been unloaded, close the blowpipe, open and close the disc valve of the rear bin several times, and then close the disc valve and inlet valve of the rear bin, that is, only the front bin is discharged , After that, the pressure will rise and stabilize to a certain value;

7. When the pressure of the barometer reaches 0MPa, the unloading is completed, turn off the air compressor (turn off the power take-off switch), and close the unloading butterfly valve.

Different Structures of a cement bulker trailer

Cement bulk trailer come in three different structures that include the horizontal, funnel, and lifting structures. Each structure is ideal for a specific type and weight of powder cargo.

Let us now look at the advantages and disadvantages of the three types of structure.

For the cement bulk trailer tank to work effectively, several safety considerations have been put in place. Basically, pneumatic tankers tend to have certain safety issues that need the attention of well-trained and competent drivers. Here are the two main areas that have to do with the safety of this type of tank:

Compressed air in the pneumatic system tends to move the cargo via pipes and compartments. For this reason, there should be accurate mechanical understanding and procedures of operation to ensure a smooth offloading process. The tank should also be kept in good condition through regular maintenance. Ideally, the only risks relate to the tanker itself and the cargo as a result of the breakages and blockages. Should there be air pressure leaks, injuries may result. Therefore, it is important to exercise caution at all times.

Operating the contemporary pneumatic tankers can now be conducted at a ground level. This largely reduces the risks of falling. In the unlikely event that the driver will be forced to climb onto the tanker, there are handrails and ladders securely fixed to reduce any chances of injuries.

Based on orientation and structure, there are different types 3 axle cement bulker trailer as discussed below.

The Horizontal Type

The terrain on which you are conducting your operations can also dictate the type of tank to buy or rent. On a steep slope, you need a 3 axle cement bulker trailer with the greatest stability.

You may not have issues with space but could be the payload is quite heavy transported along a steep gradient. The stability with this kind of cement tank makes sure that you engage in safe operations both during loading, transportation and offloading.

There won't be worries of spills or a tip-over. Still, with an increased stability, your insurance premiums will be kept low. This makes your operations very efficient financially and work-wise.

Advantages: The design of this 3 axle cement bulker trailers allows it to transport a wider range of materials than a horizontal tank.  The shipment can be either powder and granule material or the massive materials.

The pneumatic discharge can be used for powder and granule materials. The massive materials, on the other hand, are discharged into the designated pit by way of tipping gravity.

The angle between the cone bus bar and the horizontal plane is greater than or equal to 45°. Hence, this guarantees that the powder will slide to the bottom of the fluidized bed smooth.

The fluidized bed area in this type of cement bulk trailer is not large. Consequently, the residual rate is very low.

The tank design and material reduce the left over material after discharge. The material also reduced the deterioration and pollution associated with powder shipment.

The funnel type of cement bulk trailer is a good choice to transport food materials such as flour and powder chemical material.

The bulk cement trailer transport vehicle uses its own engine power to drive the vehicle-mounted air compressor through the power take-off, and sends the compressed air through the pipeline into the air chamber at the lower part of the sealed tank, so that the cement on the fluidized bed is suspended into a fluid state. When the pressure in the tank reaches the rated value, the discharge butterfly valve is opened, and the fluidized cement flows through the pipeline for transportation. Made with domestic advanced technology, novel design, strong and durable. The air bag type has a large carrying capacity, a fast discharge speed and a small residual amount. The integrated tank has the characteristics of high overall strength, good rigidity, good pressure bearing, and good performance.

CIMC 3 axle cement bulker trailer is a semi-trailer with a tank-type semi-trailer and a tank-type structure. Mainly used to transport liquids, bulk materials and bulk cement. The tank body is manufactured by three-dimensional design and advanced processing technology. The chassis adopts special chassis from various manufacturers, with advanced technology and reliable performance. It is suitable for the transportation and air pressure unloading of dry materials such as fly ash, cement, lime powder and ore powder with a particle diameter of not more than 0.1mm. When the vertical height of the unloading reaches 15m, the horizontal conveying distance can reach 5m.
