It's a Dutch invention by Marco de Baat, it is (was) his patent. He was the son of the boss of a transportation company in my hometown, Coevorden, the Netherlands.
great invention, but honestly i think it would have been easier to make it like a treadmill... like continous turning, its would be much more efficient dont you think?
@MultiMonster69 makes more sense if you ask me, this method takes no human labor but its kind of slow if you ask me, seems like humans might be able to unload stuff a little faster
Wow, great footage of a vintage RFII Keith Walking Floor unloader with the old 6" wide floor slats. It's great to see these old floors running after so many years. I occasionally hear of some old ones being cut out and installed in a newer trailer because the trailer is gone and the floor still working. Again great footage

@JTyler52 the thing is that in the saw mill you dont need to wait at lines for the dumper you just go beside a pile and unload

@blah4477 The moving floor is made to take in or push out whatever cargo that has to be transported in the trailer ;)
