Bedeschi transhippers for Vale

ORE FABRICA and ORE SOSSEGO are the biggest transhippers all over the world conceived for VALE, the leading producer of iron ore in the world.
Due to the economies of scale to handle materials using cape-size ships (too big to enter many ports), Bedeschi conceived floating ports off-shore providing the ships with belts and cranes to allow the handling of raw materials toward the ships or barges with reduced dimensions, allowing their entrance and loading on the quay. Even this machine is not something new, Bedeschi and Vale carried out these systems with higher daily capacities (more than 100,000 tons/day) complying with all the most strict
environmental standards.
