1. MATERIAL HANDELING IN PORT
Presented By-
Ranjan Kumar Mohanty

2. Introduction
• The key task in all logistic processes involves making the
desired goods available in the correct quantity and quality at
the agreed time and place.
• For domestic and sea ports all over the world, these
requirements are of great importance.
• Port is the central transfer point between water, rail and road
transport.
• Today, port operators are now more aware than ever of this
particular
• The basic objective of any port material handling is to provide
the efficient and cost effective solution.

3. MATERIAL HANDLING PRINCIPLES
PORT FOLLOWS
 Eliminate handling
 Keep moving
 Use simple patterns of material flow
 Carry pay loads both ways
 Carry full loads
 Use gravity

4. TYPES OF MATERIAL HANDLING
EQUIPMENTS IN PORT
• Storage and handling equipment
• Engineered system
• Industrial trucks
• Bulk Material handling

5. Considerations in Material Handling System Design
SHIPHANDLING FORCES
• PROPELLER
• RUDDER
• BOW THRUSTER
• ANCHORS
• LINES
• TUGS
Category Measures
Physical state Solid, liquid, or gas
Size Volume; length, width, height
Weight Weight per piece, weight per unit
Shape volume
Condition Long and flat, round, square, etc.
Safety risk and risk of
Hot, cold, wet, etc.
damage
Explosive, flammable, toxic; fragile,
etc.

6. Major Material Handling equipment
at Port
• Container Handling Crane
• Stackers-Reclaimer
• Ship Loader
• Ship un-loader
• Forklift
• Specially designed Truck
• Passenger Gangway

7. CONTAINER HANDLING CRANE
The container handling crane is the
specially designed crane to load and
unload the container from the ship and
also to the ship

8. Stackers-Reclaimer
• A stacker is a large machine used
in bulk material handling applications
• A stacker usually operates on a rail-
like structure with movable wheels, but
the main operation is performed on a
fixed place.

9. Ship Loader
• A Ship loader is a huge machine used for
loading bulk solid materials like iron ore
coal, fertilizers, grains into marine
vessels for transportation by sea.
• Ship loaders are a very common sight
in ports and jetties from where bulk
materials are exported.

10. Ship un-loader
• The grab-type ship un-loader is the
traditional method to unload bulk cargo.
• A clamshell bucket is cycled in and out of
the ship's hold, unloading with each scoop
15 - 20 cubic yards, depending on the
design specifications.

11. Rail loading facility in port
• For Coal handling and iron ore handling the
rail load facility should be available in the
port. The material handling i.e. loading and
unloading is very complex and time taking.

12. RCC silos
• Storage capacity of 10 tons to 50 tons.
• Potential indoor and outdoor erection.
• Pressure conveying system for feeding silo
from big/25kg resin bag.
• Vacuum conveying system provides
multiple processing feeding lines from silo.

13. Forklift
• A forklift (also called a lift truck, a fork
truck, or a tow-motor) is a powered
industrial truck used to lift
and transport materials.

14. Passenger Gangway
• Foot passengers need to be provided with a safe
path to the accommodation deck when a ship is
also being loaded or unloaded with heavy cargo.
The passenger gangway will follow the movement
of the vessel.

15. WAGON TRIPPLER
• The rotary tippler designed for unloading
broad-guage open railway by inverting the
wagon by inverting on its own centre of
gravity through an angle of 1700,thereby
discharging its contents into hopper below
rail.
