MaxiStore Material Distribution Bridge
Whitewater, WI -- The MaxiStore Material Distribution Bridge is designed to provide the efficient filling of dry bulk solid materials in storage buildings.

The system operates by utilizing a traveling and reversible shuttle conveyor mounted along the sidewall of the storage area. Material is fed from outside the building on to an en-masse conveyor located within the bridge structure. Utilizing shuttle belts allow the bridge to traverse on rails throughout the entire building. Material is discharged via a series of gates located throughout the length of the en-masse conveyor filling the building from floor to roof while maximizing space and providing better and safer material distribution.

The MaxiStore is excellent for handling materials such as animal feed, minerals and other bulk materials at rates in excess of 1,000 tons per hour.
