A Radial Stacking Conveyor allows material to be stockpiled in a circular arc, shown in brown in the illustration to the right. The primary advantage of this is a reduction in material handling time due to an increased storage capacity. Simply put, an operator spends less time clearing away an existing stockpile just to make room for more screened material. A Radial Stacking Conveyor is able to do this because of the unique way its wheel hubs rotate from straight ahead for travel to a position similar to that shown to the right.
The conveyors come with a pivot stand located underneath the loading hopper. This makes it easy to set up another conveyor or machine feeding into the Radial Stacking Conveyor since the loading hopper remains at the center of the arc throughout the radial movement of the conveyor.
