THAT MOVES MOUNTAINS
Every transportation scenario is different: it may involve moving
coarse-grained material through rugged terrain from the quarry to
the factory grounds, or hot materials from a kiln cooling system to
a silo. However, all of these applications have one thing in common:
when it comes to economical transport, the BEUMER Group provides
the ideal solution.
