DUNGANNON, Northern Ireland ­– ProStack are introducing the latest in their Ranger line of tracked conveyors, the 6-27H, with a unique project on the Pacific Ocean. The conveyor is designed for a range of applications including direct stockpiling from crushers and barge loading.

The Ranger 6-27H is making its on-site debut in Washington State, where it will be used to load barges before being lifted onto the vessels travelling to Alaska. After reaching their destination, the 6-27H machines will be used to unload the materials from the barge.

An extended conveyor length of 27 metres allows for more reach and increased stockpiling of up to 1,735 cubic metres.

“This was a project that required a lot of collaboration to complete, with a lot of back and forth between us, the customer, and the engineers at ProStack to find the right solution,” said Mark Trainor, sales manager for Evergreen Tractor, who are the distributor behind the project. “We’re excited to see the Ranger 6-27H working in such a unique application.”
