Bucket Elevator

bucket elevator is in use and has proven to be effective and efficient for vertical transport of wide range of bulk materials for decades. It is available in a wide range of capacities and may operate entirely in the open or be totally enclosed. Typical bucket elevator consists of a series of buckets mounted on either a chain or a belt operating over a sprocket or pulley. In order to compensate for any changes in length of belt or chain due to temperature change or wear and tear, take ups are provided. Other critical parts includes head section (which contains head pulley or sprocket) and boot section (which includes tail pulley or sprocket), intermediate sections. Material is fed into an inlet hopper. Buckets through scooping action dig into the material, and convey it up to and over the head sprocketpulley, then throwing the material out the discharge throat. The emptied buckets then continue back down to the boot to continue the cycle. Features; standardized design, however for special applications we offer necessary customization available in chain or belt type with single or double rows of buckets available in both, continuous and centrifugal discharge type rugged design with complete casing for dust free and weather proof operation
