Skydumper

The Future of Material Transport in Quarries and Construction Sites

Skydumper: Innovation in Automated Transport for Quarries and Mines

Skydumper by Seik is a fully automated solution for material transport in gravel and stone quarries. Material is deposited into a buffer bin at the loading station and then transferred to the ropeway. From there, it is moved and unloaded at a predefined point at the unloading station, before automatically returning to the starting point. The unloading point is adjustable along the route, and the payload can be customized according to specific requirements.

Thanks to the dual-cable system, the installation remains extremely stable, even in strong winds. It is electrically powered and has low wear and tear. During descent, the system recovers braking energy and feeds it back into the grid, potentially creating a positive energy balance.

The system can be customized in terms of load capacity, loading and unloading points, and travel mode. The movement of the bin is powered by a winch developed by Seik, ensuring low noise and minimal maintenance. The system guarantees high standards of safety and reliability.

Skydumper Benefits: Automation and Efficiency

  • Full Automation: Operates without a driver, with fully automated loading and unloading for uninterrupted processes.

  • Maximum Flexibility: Customizable for every type of quarry or construction site, with adaptable loading and unloading points along the entire route.

  • High Load Capacity: Perfect for handling bulk materials like gravel, stones, and debris, even in large volumes – ensuring efficiency in even the most demanding operations.

  • Energy Saving: During descent, electric energy is recovered, reducing operating costs and CO₂ emissions, contributing to sustainability.

  • Guaranteed Safety: Built to withstand harsh environmental conditions, reducing risks and increasing safety on-site.

Skydumper Main Applications:

  • Gravel and Stone Quarries
    Example: Transporting raw material from the extraction point to the processing area – optimizing time and costs
  • Mines and Deep Excavations
    Example: Alternative to trucks to lower operating costs and road wear – improving transport efficiency.
  • Sites in Hard-to-Reach Areas
    Example: Improved logistics for remote construction sites – ensuring fast and safe transportation.

Technology and Innovation – Key Data:

Skydumper is designed to provide maximum stability thanks to its dual-cable support system, making it ideal even under strong wind conditions. The bucket is moved along the line via a high-efficiency electric winch developed by Seik to reduce wear and minimize maintenance. The system can also be equipped with advanced electronic controls, allowing remote management via radio control or dedicated software. With redundant safety sensors and an intelligent braking system, Skydumper stands out as one of the safest and most reliable cable transport solutions on the market.
