Inline Loading Chute (Standart Duty)

The Variant In-line Loading Chute is highly reliable, productive system for rapidly loading ore into haulage trucks or rail cars.

Simple Proven Design—with Improved Durability

 

The Standard Duty Variant Chute is a conventional headblock configuration loadout chute, incorporating several of the key design features developed with the Heavy Duty Variant Chute — lapped liner plates, perpendicular assembly joints, cast-in upper rockbox frames, and added structural stiffeners throughout the rockbox and lip structure.
