Lokolink mobile conveyor

Lokolink™ mobile conveyors are designed to link mobile, primary crushing plants to further processing stages in quarries and mines. These mobile conveyors are able to follow the primary unit as it moves along the quarry face. Thanks to the excellent mobility, the conveyors can be easily moved to a safe distance from the face for blasting.

Features
Lokolink™ conveyors are designed to link the Lokotrack primary crushing unit to further processing stages in mine and quarry operations. Lokolink conveyors carry the material crushed by the primary unit directly, or through a field conveyor, to secondary crushing.

Lokolink conveyors are able to follow the primary unit as it moves along the quarry face. The mobile conveyors can be easily moved to a safe distance from the face for blasting. Each conveyor can be moved individually or as a combination of two or three sections using Lokotrack LT or other mobile equipment normally present at the quarry.

The mobility and flexibility of the Lokolink conveyors ensure that production is interrupted for as short a time as possible when the Lokotrack and conveyors are moved at the face or away for blasting. Replacing dump truck haulage with the LT-system can achieve very substantial savings in operating costs. Once the material has been crushed, belt conveying is by far the most cost efficient way of transporting the material. Eliminating the haulage fleet means lower levels of dust and exhaust gas emissions. A further benefit is the improved work safety.

Benefits
Full mobile
Fast relocation at quarry face
Low operating cost
Less traffic in the quarry
Improved safety
Less dust and exhaust gas emissions

Process overview
Lokolink mobile conveying system conveys the primary crushed product from Lokotrack to the fixed field conveyor. Radial wheels allow fast relocation by the bench.

How it works
Lokolink mobile conveying system consists of two or three conveyor modules and a discharge hopper. The first conveyor module is connected to the primary Lokotrack which gives the electric power for the Lokolink’s belt conveyors and hydraulic system. Turning wheels between the conveyor modules can be set in radial position which is ideal for short relocations of the Lokotrack, or used to steer the whole system longer distances by the bench, along the field conveyor, or even to different level.

Discharge hopper is equipped with pan feeder which discharges the material onto the field conveyor. The hopper is typically mounted on rails so that it can be moved along the field conveyor.

Lokotrack primary plants compatible with Lokolink mobile conveying system are LT125(E), LT140(E), LT150E, LT160E, LT200E, LT1418E, and LT1620E.
