Integrated loading

Friday, 18 May, 2007 | Supplied by: ICA SpA


A new method of bulk loading and unloading palletised products with 20, 40 and 48' containers has been developed by ICA.

During handling, vehicle/container docking alignment are controlled and verified electronically. The docks are designed to both load and unload the containers with a loading time being typically less than five minutes.

The development complements the company's existing range of dock-loading systems that includes Airlift, Airola, Airchain and Transkate that use trucks at the delivery points.

With the new system, the vehicle container is raised to a correct height to enable efficient loading (and unloading) with powered docks. Skates for the dock are constructed to allow minimum sideways movement of the load.
