TAKRAF Provides Custom Designed Radial Stacker

TAKRAF South Africa has completed the design and supply of a radial stacker for the Platreef Project in South Africa in under eight months from contract award to delivery of the equipment, providing a customized solution for the greenfields platinum mine.

Awarded by Ivanplats (Pty) Ltd as an EPS project, the radial stacker was supplied for Phase 1 of the Platreef Project, considered to be the pilot plant phase of a two-phase expansion project for Ivanplats. The project, based in Mokopane in the Limpopo Province, comprises development of a 4.4 Mtpa underground mine, with two concentrators built in modules of 2.2 Mtpa each.

The slewing / non-luffing radial stacker features a capacity of 1,993 t/h, a fixed boom with dual walkway, a boom length of 44.6 m with a boom inclination of 13 degrees and pneumatic heavy duty rubber tire. The radial stacker was completely designed, sourced and fabricated in South Africa by TAKRAF’s South Africa Business Unit. It was engineered with a modular approach for ease of transport and ease of site installation.

“We are proud to have been able to provide the client with a unique solution tailored to the project specifications, meeting the requirement for a locally produced radial stacker,” says Bhavesh Bhaga, TAKRAF South Africa General Manager Business Execution.
