Chain Bucket Conveyor

A chain bucket conveyor is a conveying device that horizontally or inclinedly transports materials using buckets running along a track. It is suitable for conveying and elevating various loose, non-cohesive solid materials, such as boiler ash, cement clinker, slag, coke, crushed stone, etc., especially materials with high temperature, high bulk density, large particle size, sharp edges, and strong abrasiveness. It is widely used in the transportation of raw materials or finished products in industrial production processes such as machinery, metallurgy, chemicals, building materials, pharmaceuticals, food, and warehousing. The chain bucket conveyor offers advantages such as flexible layout, large conveying capacity, long service life, minimal maintenance, low operating costs, and large conveying angles.

The chain bucket conveyor integrates horizontal and vertical material lifting into one unit, allowing a single device to replace multiple horizontal and vertical conveyors. Materials are enclosed in a standard steel casing, preventing dust from escaping, making it suitable for applications requiring sealing. Materials can be discharged cleanly and slowly through gates or openings at the bottom of the casing in the upper horizontal section. The machine offers flexible and diverse layouts, allowing for multiple feeding points. It saves factory space and reduces the depth of pits.

The loading and unloading of this series of chain bucket conveyors are relatively smooth, and during the process from loading to discharging, the materials in the casing do not come into contact with the transmission components, ensuring that all materials remain unbroken and undamaged. If the conveyed materials require no breakage or damage, this type of conveying equipment will be the first choice.

Depending on the properties of the conveyed materials, the buckets of the chain bucket conveyor can be made of ordinary carbon steel, stainless steel, or plastic-coated steel.
