Product Description

Tailor-made bucket elevator for bulk material vertical transport

Introduction of bucket elevator

The SSI bucket elevators are customized and continuously developed to suit increasing plant and process requirements, offering this availability combine with performance, flexibility, and service life. The SSI bucket elevators are designed for efficient vertical transport of any kind of bulk material under severe operating conditions and in continuous operation.

Generally speaking, the form of materials directly determines the unloading mode of materials. The common law is that powdery materials are unloaded by centrifugal ejection and massive materials are unloaded by gravity. Different unloading modes determine the different hopper forms of bucket elevators. Centrifugal ejection unloading mostly adopts shallow buckets and arc buckets, while gravity unloading needs a deep bucket. The bucket elevator adopts different types of hoppers, so the material conveying capacity per unit time is different. The final conveying capacity of the bucket elevator is a comprehensive parameter that depends on the hopper form, bucket speed, material-specific gravity, material properties, and hopper quantity.

The selection process of bucket elevator: material specific gravity → transmission mode (bucket elevator model) → material property → unloading mode → hopper form → lifting capacity of this series of bucket elevators → determine the model.

The performance parameters of bucket elevator change due to the change of conveying capacity and conveying height, so the accurate specification, conveying capacity, chain (belt) speed, and power need to be determined through calculation. Users can make a preliminary selection through the parameter table of the corresponding model of bucket elevator.
