Case studies

DustCone at work

Recent installations, as reported in Dry Cargo International, September and October 2026.

East Asia, grain terminal

Maize intake line

Four DC Mini FT units in SS304 were fitted to the chute outlets. The operator now fills each storage bay from one outlet where two were needed before. The consolidated column drives into the pile and pushes it outward, so the bay fills lower and wider instead of peaking under the fill point.

Turkey, minerals

Feldspar handling

A DC 3 FT fabricated in Hardox 500 wear plate has shipped for feldspar, an abrasive mineral.

Malaysia, flour mill

Truck-loading retrofit

A retrofit on a truck-loading line handling grain and feed was being commissioned in October 2026.

South America

Uruguay and Argentina

A DC 1 in Uruguay and a DC 4 for a major oilseed processor in Argentina have moved from order to delivery.
