In 2002 Saxlund International Ltd supplied a tyre chip truck reception bunker equipped with the Saxlund Push Floor discharge machine at the existing Ribblesdale Tyre Chip Handling Plant. The Push Floor discharges the tyre chips to our metering belt conveyor with a scalping drum and belt weighing system. This conveys the material in a metered fashion from the bunker to the Bucket Elevator.
