Bucket Elevators

Listing ID #4163266

Either series is available with buckets mounted on a chain or belt and will handle free-flowing materials with small to medium size lumps. The standard inlet chute and standard curved bottom plate direct the material into the buckets and reduce the “digging” action. The speed of the elevator is sufficient to discharge the material by centrifugal force.

Either series is available with buckets mounted on a chain or belt and will handle free-flowing material, sluggish material or materials that are abrasive. The closely spaced fabricated buckets, with extended sides, form a “chute” to direct material into the bucket. At the discharge, the bucket configuration allows the material to discharge by gravity over the back of the proceeding bucket.

High-speed centrifugal discharge bucket elevators are specially designed to economically handle grain and other free-flowing materials. These elevators are not self-supporting therefore, intermediate supports must be provided by others.

Continuous Discharge Super Capacity type elevators are offered with style “SC” continuous discharge buckets mounted between two strands of chain. These units are used where higher capacities, severe duty, or higher shaft centers are required. Housing construction is heavy duty for severe service.
