Explanation:
I do a lot of translations for a large mininng company and have come across this before
It can also be called a bucket wheel reclaimer




Example sentence(s):
  • A reclaimer is a large machine used in bulk material handling applications. A reclaimer's function is to recover bulk material such as ores and cereals from a stockpile. A stacker is used to stack the material.
