A majority of the equipment available for unloading chip trailers take up a lot of space and are slow in their operation. This poses a problem for many logistics companies. The Bruks Drive-Thru Truck Dump addresses this problem with a novel, compact design that ensures trucks can be unloaded in record time. The design also places a great emphasis on safety, making it suitable for both throughput and real estate applications. The Bruks Drive-Thru Truck Dump is indeed a game-changer in the logistics industry.
Design and working principle
Bruks Drive-Thru Truck Dump is capable of accommodating a wide range of truck sizes. This is in line with the standards stipulated by the U.S. Department of Transportation. Depending on your needs, the platform can also be custom-made to handle varying truck and trailer lengths. The drive-thru truck dump comes with a receiving hopper that is designed to facilitate efficient unloading of the platform. There is also a discharge hood which covers the hopper’s pulley head. All these are perfectly optimized to ensure a safe and efficient unloading process.
One of the major advantages of the Bruks Drive-Thru Truck Dump over similar equipment is that drivers do not have to back into place before they can position their truck and trailer. This is possible because they only have to pull their truck forward whenever they desire to enter the platform. This method of entry poses efficiency advantages over other equipment. The dumper’s processing capability is greatly increased and more trucks can be processed in a shorter period of time.
Features and specifications
The Bruks Drive-Thru Truck Dump is designed to handle truck and trailer length of about 85 feet. The platform can handle vehicles that are as much as 140,000 pounds heavy. The impressive efficiency of the truck dump is further highlighted by its ability to raise a fully loaded truck at a maximum angle of 63 degrees within two minutes or less.
The platform is constructed from ultra-durable materials and is built to last. It has a life expectancy of 25 years or a whopping 2 million cycles. To reduce installation cost, the platforms are pre-assembled before shipping. Simply install on arrival and you’re good to go.

Startup
A startup or start-up is a company or project undertaken by an entrepreneur to seek, develop, and validate a scalable business model. While entrepreneurship refers to all new businesses, including self-employment and businesses that never intend to become registered, startups refer to new businesses that intend to grow large beyond the solo founder. At the beginning, startups face high uncertainty and have high rates of failure, but a minority of them do go on to be successful and influential. Some startups become unicorns; that is privately held startup companies valued at over US$1 billion.
Actions
Startups typically begin by a founder (solo-founder) or co-founders who have a way to solve a problem. The founder of a startup will begin market validation by problem interview, solution interview, and building a minimum viable product (MVP), i.e. a prototype, to develop and validate their business models. The startup process can take a long period of time (by some estimates, three years or longer), and hence sustaining effort is required. Over the long term, sustaining effort is especially challenging because of the high failure rates and uncertain outcomes. Having a business plan in place outlines what to do and how to plan and achieve an idea in the future. Typically, these plans outline the first 3 to 5 years of your business strategy.
Design principles
Models behind startups presenting as ventures are usually associated with design science. Design science uses design principles considered to be a coherent set of normative ideas and propositions to design and construct the company's backbone. For example, one of the initial design principles is "affordable loss".
