Laidig has decades of experience providing innovative storage and reclaim solutions for port facility applications.
Our large capacity reclaim systems are a critical component to the operational efficiency of a port facility. They provide tremendous flexibility and reliably offer significant load-out rates.
Laidig engineers and designs FULLY AUTOMATED large-diameter bulk storage and reclaim systems for large capacity storage silos to meet the needs and requirements of port facility applications that include our Track-Drive and X-Traktor Reclaim Systems.
The Laidig Track-Drive Reclaim System is engineered to provide a fully automated, near-total cleanout while promoting first-in-first-out (FIFO) material distribution. The advance track-drive system ensures a positive advance, and the unique self-cleaning shoe assembly firmly grips the ductile iron track, keeping the auger in place.
The Laidig X-Traktor Reclaim System is customized to a wide variety of applications in silos or domes, and is available in both cantilever and trolley-supported systems. The X-Traktor is Laidig's largest and most powerful reclaimer, designed specifically for dependability and low maintenance.
All of these Laidig Reclaim Systems offer maximum storage and automated delivery with fully automated, push-button operation.
Laidig reclaim systems provide solutions to the challenges port facilities encounter that include:
- First-In-First-Out (FIFO) Inventory Control
- Elimination of Bridging and Rat-Holing
- Controlling product infestation
- Controlling product contamination
- Providing “near-total” cleanout
- Providing “zero entry” for easy service access and operator safety
Project Spotlight: Laidig Provides Multiple Reclaimers to Brazilian Port Facility
"The eight Laidig reclaimers will deliver trans-loaded soybean meal, corn, and/or whole soybeans at a rate of roughly 500 MTPH per reclaimer to a conveyer system that will load ocean-going ships..."
Which System is Right for You?
There are several different systems we can custom-design for you depending on the nuances of your material and storage specifications. Learn about our unique systems for Port and Terminal Facilities here:
Track-Drive
The heavy-duty Track-Drive reclaim systems are designed for automated, continuous operation under the most challenging conditions. When higher-volume delivery is required, or when handling materials with poor flow characteristics, track-driven reclaim systems are often the optimal solution.
X-Traktor
Laidig has engineered the X-Traktor from the ground up to provide unparalleled performance and flexibility in the largest-possible diameters for materials with poor flow characteristics. The X-Traktor provides fully-automated delivery at high discharge rates from large-diameter domes or super silos.
DOMinator
The unique design of the DOMinator extends the diameters of Track-Drive systems beyond what was previously possible, providing automated reclamation of hard-to-handle materials in the most challenging environments. This system shields the track-advance drive components from the material in a perimeter access area.
CleanSweep
The CleanSweep system is ideal for high-volume storage and reclaim of semi-free-flowing materials. The CleanSweep system combines multiple draw downs in the floor with a wheel-supported auger. It offers a fully-automated clean out solution without the need for personnel entry. The unique reversing capability offers flexibility.
Cantilever
The Cantilever storage and reclaim systems are designed to accommodate a wide range of material applications in flat-bottom vertical storage structures. Laidig’s Cantilevers are either hydraulically or electrically driven and may be designed with single or dual augers, depending upon the application.
