Robson conveyor for the Fenwick Bond
Street store
Robson Handling Technology has custom-built a conveyor system for Squibb Demolition, to remove debris from the redevelopment of a ten-storey office building at the Fenwick store in London
Because there is no vehicular access to the building, it is being dismantled piecemeal The rubble is then removed on the Robson conveyor, which is housed in a temporary enclosed and sound-proofed tunnel through the first-floor women's fashion department in Fenwick's, to keep disruption of store trading to a minimum
The 44 metre-long trough belt conveyor follows a curved route through the store, negotiating fixed obstacles such as fire main risers en route, and delivers the rubble into a truck waiting in the street below.
To avoid hazards to passing traffic, the conveyor emerges from the building above bus height and has a delivery chute that can be swivelled out of the way when not in use.
Maximum hourly capacity is 60 tonnes.
