Stack Smarter with the ThorLOPRO™

Jun 25, 2025 | News

In 1992, Thor Global revolutionised bulk material handling by introducing one of the world’s first telescopic radial conveyors for aggregate stockpiles. Developed in response to stricter requirements for in-spec material supply, the technology enabled operators to build more consistent stockpiles by layering material concentrically, in multiple rows, effectively minimising segregation.

The innovation quickly gained traction in the industry, prompting Thor Global to pivot its primary focus toward advancing telescopic conveyor systems. That evolution continues with the Thor  LOPRO™ telescopic radial conveyor.

With its patented low-profile design, the Thor LOPRO™ offers the lowest feed height in its class while maintaining a robust truss structure to ensure strength and stability. Capable of handling up to 1500 tonnes per hour, the LOPRO™ features a feed height of just 1.7 metres, with a fixed hopper angle. This compact fixed profile allows for direct feeding from crushers, eliminating the need for additional conveyors and enhancing operational efficiency and simplifying site layouts.

The control system has been specially designed to accommodate Australia’s climate and operational demands. An AS/NZS 3000 compliant, split-panel configuration separates high and low-voltage sides for improved heat management, and the unit includes an HDMI touchscreen, remote control, and a comprehensive range of sensors. All guarding and safety features comply with Australian regulations.

Adaptability is another key feature. We work closely with customers to tailor conveyor systems to site-specific standards and operational requirements. This includes providing custom designs and technical support to ensure compliance with varying regulations across states such as Western Australia and New South Wales. All the benefits of a THORSTACKER™ conveyor are available in this low-profile package.

Thor’s equipment is engineered for longevity in demanding environments. Built using high-grade steel, protective coatings, and premium components, the conveyors are built to operate reliably, meeting rigorous internal quality standards.

Backed by our comprehensive service and support network, the Thor LOPRO™ is a long-term investment in productivity and reliability. With dedicated service teams nationwide, readily available spare parts, and expert technical assistance, we ensure that every customer receives the ongoing support they need to keep their operations running smoothly.
