Without transportation and transshipment, everything is at a standstill on construction

It is well known that from the Belgian town of Verrebroek countless mobile screening, crushing and windshifting installations find their way to construction sites via rental on a daily basis. Smet Rental is the market leader in these machines and many other recycling machines. However, just as important as screening, crushing and sorting is the transportation and transfer of the material. Now let Smet Rental offer the best solutions for that too.

Valérie Smet, daughter of manager Stefaan Smet, explains what Smet Rental can do in that area. "Transferring materials or transporting them from A to B is just as much part of the job as crushing, screening or sorting itself. That is why it is extra comfortable to rent mobile conveyors and transfer cranes along. The customer is assured of continuity on the construction site because he gets the well-known service of Smet Rental with it."

Transfer cranes: never miss out in terms of rental

"At Smet Rental, we have Terex brand mobile material handling cranes in our program," Valérie continues. "For example, there is the Terex Fuchs MHL 320, a wheel crane with a height-adjustable cab, which allows good visibility over the screening/breaking installation. The legs with outriggers can be deployed for more stability, making it possible to grab the material from a greater distance as well. Of course, the crane is delivered to the job site with all accompanying instructions and the machine is adjusted before we leave the job site again."

On the contrary, those who want to work as close to the machine as possible can opt for the Terex TWH220. Valérie: "The specially developed kinematics for loading materials ensures that it is indeed possible to work as close to the machine as possible. This is also a wheel crane with stabilization legs. The cabin can be raised to provide a good overview of the entire process. A big advantage of this is that the loading can be done proportionally and thus there is better weight distribution."

Transporting from 2.5 meters up to 30 meters far

Smet Rental offers the right conveyor for every transport requirement. "Whether the material needs to be moved over a short distance, for example via a 2.5 meter reading belt, or over a long distance, up to 30 meters, we can provide everything. From stationary conveyors to mobile variants, in both wheel and track versions. There is also the choice of whether or not to deploy height-adjustable machines. Our strength lies not only in the fact that we can offer everything according to the customer's wishes, but especially that we provide our service. The customer is assured of a well-maintained conveyor belt that functions optimally. If the conveyor stands still, the whole process comes to a standstill. Renting everything from one source optimizes the processing process and saves money."
