Bucket Elevator

DEMECH supplies Bucket Elevators for vertically transporting various free-flowing bulk materials from dust to material having particles up to 250 mm. It can supply material with centrifugal or continuous types of discharge with single and double strands of chains and Belt.

Chain bucket elevator can be supply with Pin & bush roller type Chains whereas in Belt elevator can be used Fabric (EP) type and steel cord belt for heavy applications.

Reputed Chain and Belt used for best quality.

Bucket elevators find applications in the following industries - 

  1. Cement Industry: Clinker , Coal, Fly Ash & Cement
  2. Food Industry: Salt Cake, Soda Ash, Soya bean cakes & seeds.
  3. Chemical Industry: Stable Bleaching Powder, Hydrated Lime.
  4. Power Industry: Fuel Feeders, Coal.
  5. Steel Industry: Co-generation Plant & Ash Disposal Plant.
  6. Paper Industry: Fly Ash
  • Centrifugal Bucket Elevators operate at higher speeds to discharge the material by centrifugal action out of the buckets into the discharge spout as the buckets pass over the head pulley/sprocket. Buckets are spaced at wider intervals to prevent discharge interference from the proceeding bucket and to assure maximum fill of the buckets at the boot end while moving at higher speed. Continuous Bucket Elevators are designed to handle friable, fragile materials to minimize product degradation and damage or to handle sluggish or abrasive material. They are also used to convey light free-flowing matter where aeration of the material must be avoided.
  • Continuous style elevators operate at a lower speed to minimize breakage of friable materials. Buckets are closely spaced on the belt or chain to allow the material to flow over the backside of the proceeding bucket, whose extended sides form a chute to guide the material into the discharge spout. Bucket Elevators are powered by geared motor and / or transmission chain & sprocket located at the top end of the conveyor. Gravity take-up / tensioning arrangement is provided at the boot section of Bucket elevator.
