Top Loading

Top Loading railcars and trucks provides an efficient and cost effective method to load and unload in many applications.
A loading system should have sufficient horizontal range to reach the farthest compartment without re-spotting the vehicle. Sufficient vertical movement and drop-pipe lengths are also necessary to service vehicles of varying heights. A properly designed top loading system can achieve these requirement. Top loading can also be used for tight-fill and vapor recovery applications when used with specially designed and engineered components, such as vapor plates, tapered hatch plugs, and inflatable hatch seals.
Special top loading designs can also be supplied with a wide range of valves, fittings, and instrumentation equipment. We serve the petroleum, chemical and food industries providing effective loading and unloading systems for the safe and efficient handling of all types liquids. We work closely with you to design the best system for your application.
