Protect workers by eliminating the need to climb under railcars during unloading process.
At Martin Engineering, we take the risk out of unloading bulk materials, like coal or cement, from railcars. We manufacture products specifically engineered to take the worker out of harm’s way when connecting and unloading railcars by energizing the material inside the railcar at the particle level to keep it flowing. This eliminates the need to send a worker under the discharge port to manually loosen obstructions.
Our railcar unloading products are engineered to quickly and safely connect to the discharge and funnel the bulk material into containers below. This also prevents the escape of fugitive airborne dust being inhaled by workers. Plus, in addition to enhancing worker safety, utilizing these products results in less cleanup and faster unload times.
Our technicians and engineers are available to provide expert advice and assistance on these products and all of your bulk material handling questions and problems. Please contact us today and let us help!
