Bucket elevator is a kind of lifting equipment with compact structure and excellent efficiency. According to the connection form of hopper, it can be divided into three categories: plate chain bucket elevator, ring chain bucket elevator and belt bucket elevator.

Plate chain bucket elevator

Plate chain bucket elevator refers to NE type bucket elevator, plate chain bucket elevator is suitable for medium, large and abrasive materials (such as grain, limestone, cement clinker, gypsum, lump coal) For vertical transportation and lifting, the temperature of the material should be controlled below 250 °C.

The chain of the plate chain bucket elevator has two forms: single chain and double chain. The chain is selected according to the machine model and the lifting amount. The NE30 and the lower use the single-row chain, and the NE50--NE800 adopts the double-row chain.

Features: Smaller self-weight, improved lifting capacity, wear resistance and high temperature, less noise, and sealed design to reduce dust.

Chain Bucket Elevator

The ring chain bucket elevator, as the name implies, uses a ring chain to connect the hoppers, and is suitable for vertical conveying of powdery, granular, and small block materials with high abrasiveness, such as coal, cement, crushed ore, sand and gravel, etc., with high conveying height 40m, the machine has a larger dead weight than the plate chain, but the ring chain structure reduces the wear of the traction chain. At the same time, the low-alloy thickened ring chain has high tensile strength and wear resistance after heat treatment, and has a long service life.

Features: The self-heavy lifting capacity is the strongest, and it is resistant to wear and 250 ℃ high temperature.

Belt Bucket Elevator

The structure of the belt bucket elevator is relatively simple. Different types of belts are used to pull the hopper, and the dead weight is light. Compared with the chain bucket elevator, it is not suitable for conveying materials with high abrasiveness and high temperature. It is usually used in the light industry. Convey light-weight materials.

The belt of the belt bucket elevator generally has three types: ordinary (lifting temperature≤60℃), steel rope belt (lifting temperature≤80℃), and heat-resistant belt (lifting temperature≤120℃).

Features: the lightest weight, the lowest maintenance frequency, the lowest noise, and the lowest price.

The self-weight of the plate chain bucket elevator is heavier than that of the belt bucket elevator, and lighter than that of the chain bucket elevator; the lifting capacity is larger than that of the belt bucket elevator and smaller than that of the chain bucket elevator; the noise is larger than that of the belt bucket elevator and smaller than that of the chain bucket elevator; therefore The plate chain bucket elevator is a good choice for the lifting and conveying of small and medium-sized light and heavy industries.
