Bucket Elevators
Bucket elevator operation

A typical bucket elevator consists of a series of buckets mounted on an endless looped chain or belt moving materials straight up at 90 deg­rees. This traditional method of conveying is one of the most econ­om­ic­al, effic­ient and dependable means of elevating loose bulk materials. The in­itial cost is low, maintenance is minimal and a long life can be expected.
