It's time to make sure your family knows how to stay safe and healthy this winter. Pregnancy is a very special time in a woman's life.

However, because some medications are safe during pregnancy and others are not, it can also be a confusing time. And the results can come in less than half an hour.

Diabetes can lead to complications throughout your body, even in your feet. Learn how to keep your feet healthy and happy.

Thanksgiving is a great time to be with friends and family, but it's also a time when it's easy to eat too many unhealthy foods.

A reclaimer can be used to recover the material. Gold dredges in Alaska had a stacker that was a fixed part of the dredge. It carried over-size material to the tailings pile.

Stackers are nominally rated for capacity in tonnes per hour tph. They normally travel on a rail between stockpiles in the stockyard. A stacker can usually move in at least two directions: horizontally along the rail and vertically by luffing raising and lowering its boom.

Luffing of the boom minimises dust by reducing the distance that material such as coal needs to fall to the top of the stockpile. The boom is luffed upwards as the height of the stockpile increases.

Some stackers can rotate the boom. This allows a single stacker to form two stockpiles, one on either side of the conveyor. Stackers are used to stack in different patterns, such as cone stacking and chevron stacking.

Stacking in a single cone tends to cause size segregation, with coarser material moving out towards the base. In raw cone ply stacking, additional cones are added next to the first cone.

In chevron stacking, the stacker travels along the length of the stockpile adding layer upon layer of material.

Stackers and reclaimers were originally manually controlled, with no means of remote control. Modern machines are typically semi-automatic or fully automated, with parameters remotely set.

The control system used is typically a programmable logic controller , with a human-machine interface for display, connected to a central control system.

The conveyor belts used in stackers may be made of fabric or metal wire, depending upon the material to be handled. They are driven by pulleys, which in turn are driven by DC motors.
