Introduction of

Bucket Elevator

A bucket elevator is a mechanical conveyor for vertically lifting bulk materials. It consists of:

Buckets: Attached to a belt or chain to carry the material.
Casing: An enclosed housing for containment and safety.
Drive System: Provides power, typically at the head (top).
Boot: The loading section at the bottom.

Key Features:

Efficient vertical transport.
Compact footprint.
Enclosed design minimizes dust and spillage.

Common Uses: Grain, fertilizers, minerals, chemicals, and other free-flowing granular or lump materials in agriculture, mining, and manufacturing.
