Wilson's ALCs were designed to handle rail car-to-truck loading. An electrical control panel is used for handling and operating. The unit can run on 220/440-volt service, or optional diesel powered. The handling rates are from 60 to 160 TPH of 85-pound material. The tail section has a large gasket to seal with the rail car's gates. Standard adapters allow for uses on different car gate configurations. The unit is hydraulically driven and operated. Other features: a dust collector mounted on top of the conveyor trough; glass inspection doors; hydraulic quick-couple for auxiliary vibrator and a cover for protection against bad weather.
