Bucket Elevator

Bucket Elevator, Tongxin Series Bucket Elevator, Supply of Bucket Elevators, Vertical Bucket Elevator Manufacturer

The bucket elevator series is a commonly used lifting and conveying equipment, mainly suitable for vertically conveying bulk materials with low abrasiveness such as powder, granules, and small lumps, including grains, coal, cement, crushed ore, etc. The product features large conveying capacity, high lifting height, stable operation, long service life, good sealing, minimal environmental pollution; easy operation and maintenance, and few vulnerable parts.

Bucket Elevator product categories are mainly divided into: TD series belt-type bucket elevators, TH series circular chain bucket elevators, TB series vertical bucket elevators, GTD series high-efficiency bucket elevators, TG series steel wire rope core belt bucket elevators, HL series ring chain centrifugal bucket elevators, NE series plate chain bucket elevators, NB series bucket elevators, Z-type bucket elevators, C-type bucket elevators and motor vibration vertical elevators. Buckets are available in four types: shallow buckets, arc-bottom buckets, medium-depth buckets, and deep buckets for customer selection. The main materials used are carbon steel and stainless steel. Currently, the bucket elevator series products are widely used in material conveying operations and production processes across various industries.

Selection of Bucket Elevator Models:

As common lifting equipment, the selection of a bucket elevator is constrained by many factors. Choosing the wrong model can cause endless trouble for the user.
Generally, the selection of a bucket elevator depends on the following factors:
1. Material form: whether the material is powdery, granular, or small lumpy.
2. Physical properties of the material: whether the material has adhesiveness or viscosity, and whether it contains moisture.
3. Material specific gravity: generally, bucket elevator parameters are designed and calculated for materials with a bulk specific gravity below 1.6. For materials with a higher specific gravity, calculations for traction force and tensile strength of the transmission parts are required. 4. Conveying capacity per unit time.

Generally, the form of the material directly determines the unloading method. The common rule is that powdery materials use centrifugal projection unloading, while lumpy materials use gravity unloading. The unloading method determines the type of bucket used in the bucket elevator. Centrifugal projection unloading often uses shallow buckets and arc buckets, while gravity unloading requires deep buckets. The type of bucket used affects the conveying capacity per unit time. The final conveying capacity of the bucket elevator is a comprehensive parameter that depends on the bucket type, bucket speed, material specific gravity, material properties, and the number of buckets. The selection process is as follows: material specific gravity → transmission method (bucket elevator model) → material properties → unloading method → bucket type → lifting capacity of the series → determine the model.

Friendly reminder: Selecting a bucket elevator model is a complex process. If you are not very familiar with the above issues, please contact our business or technical personnel for consultation. For detailed product parameters, please refer to the product introductions of each series.
