Delivery mechanisms for Woodchip
Woodchip storage for boilers and other systems can be provided for use both internally and externally using Walking Floor containers which can cater for expansion or a change in position which fixed systems cannot. These systems can be frame mounted and supplied with augur delivery systems to feed the boiler or the biochar production unit.

Walking Floor Containers for woodchip storage

Woodchip storage & delivery for recycled woodchip
This 9m Walking Floor Container is fitted with a Walking Floor coupled to a heavy duty agitator and augur discharge facility specifically to handle recycled woodchip which is becoming popular as a fuel source from waste and wood recyclers. It has been supplied to Ecotec who offer boilers capable of using recycled wood as their primary fuel. Recycled woodchip is much more difficult to get to flow through the system due to its non homogeneous nature and requires heavy duty augurs and agitators. Hooklift Solutions can supply the stands to mount the containers together with the augur assemblies and Hydraulic Power Units for static applications like these.

Pneumatic Delivery Systems for Blown Delivery of Woodchip

Independently powered woodchip blowers that can be used by any suitable hooklift
This 35 cu yd capacity container is independent powered and can by operated by any suitable hooklift vehicle.
To meet customer requirements, this independent unit has been developed by Hooklift Solutions which is self sufficient and has an auxiliary engine and compressor mounted in an engine compartment at the front of the body. As the unit does not tip for discharge, a Walking Floor feeds the woodchip to the augur and rotary valve to produce a balanced flow for discharge.
