Innovation Description and Benefit:
This innovation improves safety and efficiency when loading brine or Geomelt. Instead of using overhead booms that splash liquid onto trucks and create congestion risks, operators can now start the pump remotely from the loader cab. Liquid is added directly to the bucket and dumped before the final material load—making the process faster, cleaner, and safer.
