Bucket Elevator

Varahi bucket elevators are available in different sizes and shapes. Housing and bucket size can be decided based on material lifting rate. Range of height up to 30 meter.
Use of Bucket Elevator:
The bucket elevator reduces manpower and increases productivity. It is useful to elevate powder, granules, seeds and lumpy material from bottom to required height. Continuous or positive discharge type elevator lifts material in close casing. It is generally used for foodstuffs, seeds, grains, ice, chemicals, cereals, minerals and coal.
About Bucket Elevator:
Material is fed at the bottom through hopper. The material fills bucket. The bucket lifts the material from bottom to upward and throws out from casing through discharge spout. Material is discharged in other machine or collects at desired height.
Bucket Elevator design:
Bucket elevator consists series of buckets fixed on the chain or belts. Bottom and over-head pulleys operate chain or belt. Pulley is driven by drives. Length and vibration of belt is adjusted by take-up. Buckets, belt and both pulleys are enclosed in steel casing.
