Belt Bucket Elevators

These types of elevator is mostly used for bulks materials, which are free flowing, fine or small lump materials, such as grain, sand, clay, sugar and dry chemicals. Buckets are mounted at intervals on a belt or chain. They usually operate vertically but have the capability to be designed to be inclined according to the requirement. Buckets are filled with materials by a combination of direct materials loading into buckets and by scooping from the boot, which is the lowest part of the elevator. Speed is comparatively higher and is basically controlled by the head sprocket or drum diameter and its eject from the bucket containers
