General Information

Overview

In this unit, you will develop skills required to analyse the operation and maintenance of solid material handling equipment. The characteristics of solid materials and their impact on storage and conveying systems including requirements for the effective operation of conveyors will be explored. You will design hoppers, identify dust extraction systems, explain the applications of various feeders used in industry and apply the principles of mine product handling systems to a given mine situation. You will be required to work autonomously to produce clear, professional documentation of the approach taken in the description and analysis of solid materials handling equipment. In this unit, you must complete compulsory practical activities. Refer to the Engineering Undergraduate Course Moodle site for proposed dates.
