Road & Rail Reception Pits

Cleveland Cascades Limited have unparalleled expertise in the design and manufacture of dust controlled dry bulk material handling systems, in particular the revolutionary Cascade loading chute. Conventional reception pits for receiving dry bulk material by rail and road are another area susceptible to problems of dust creation, material degradation, spillage and containment, Cleveland has now applied their proven expertise in developing a new generation of reception pit designs.

By controlling the materials speed of descent within the reception pit, dust production and degradation is avoided, expensive, high maintenance dust extraction systems are not required. Material is received gently into the reception pit minimising impact damage, belt abrasion and reducing the need for impact sections. The Cleveland Taper Flow® skirtless delivery system further controls dust production and helps ensure material is placed uniformly onto the receiving belt, thus eliminating issues associated with belt tracking and on-going maintenance costs.

Existing reception pits can be retro fitted with Cascade designs or new pit designs can be undertaken offering huge savings in civil work as the pits are unusually shallow by comparison to the conventional designs.
