Difference between revisions of "Continuous Bucket Elevators"

'''Continuous bucket elevator''' is a type of [[Bucket Elevators]] designed to carry product "all the way" between processes gently and without degradation. Moulded polyamide buckets are connected one to the other by silicone joining strips which creates a continuous "bucket belt" or bucket conveyor. With the bucket belt connected between two of our unique "rubber chains" the drive system allows the bucket elevator to provide high throughputs without spillage. Bucket elevators have been supplied to many sections of the food industry. We currently handle confectionery - wrapped, boiled, chocolate coated - frozen vegetables and meat, milk powders, ingredients, fatted biscuit crumb and snack foods. The same food quality characteristics of the system also satisfy the producers of salt, soap powders, construction industry materials, ceramic constituents, pesticides, catalyst pellets and dried sewage sludge as no lubrication is required.

Most of the continuous bucket elevator drive system is "rubber chain" providing outstanding features, with no links, is silent-running, wear-resistant and maintenance free, all excellent qualities further enhanced by its corrosion-free design.

* Totally enclosed robust construction with standard and special profiles to suit heavy duty vertical lifting applications.

* Open construction with safety panels in solid or mesh materials. These allow internal visibility and access for easy cleaning with steam or special fluids.

* Special bucket elevator designs for the food industry are available which are ideal for units involved in packaging and weighing products.

* Bucket Elevator structures are designed to enable ease of installation and access.
