High Lifting Capacity Bucket Elevator
The High Lifting Capacity Bucket Elevator moves grain and other free-flowing granular material straight up, from a pit or hopper to a silo, bin or the next machine. It is used in grain stores, feed mills, rice and flour mills and oilseed plants. The unit takes little floor space, lifts a large volume for its size, and runs steadily with modest power draw.
How the High Lifting Capacity Bucket Elevator works
Buckets are fixed to a belt that loops over a head pulley and a boot pulley. Material enters at the boot, fills the buckets as they turn, and is thrown out at the head into a discharge spout. Because the lift is vertical, one elevator can replace a long run of inclined conveyor and free up floor area in a tight plant.
The typical build for this class, as listed in the specification table below, is:
- Continuous run, motor-driven
- Bucket-and-belt vertical lift
- Mild steel casing, steel/plastic buckets
- 5-20 tonnes/hour vertical lift, set by bucket size, belt speed and height
These are typical values for the equipment type, not fixed figures for this model. We confirm lift height, rate and motor size for your order.
What to tell us when you enquire
We usually ask buyers four questions before quoting:
- The material and its bulk density, since paddy, maize and oilseed fill buckets differently
- The lift height from inlet to discharge
- The tonnes per hour the line must move
- Your local voltage and frequency
Steel buckets suit heavy or abrasive grain, while plastic buckets are lighter and quieter for clean seed and rice. For a smaller unit sized to a rice line, compare the bucket elevator for rice mill machine. It pairs well with a complete set combine rice mill at the intake.
Range and export
This elevator is listed under Agro Elevator in our Agro Processing Machines line; the wider agro processing equipment range shows machines it often feeds. We build it in China and ship single units or bulk container loads to Kenya, Ghana and Tanzania and other markets, each with export papers for customs. Tall casings ship in bolted sections to fit a standard container. The FAO guidance on sustainable agricultural mechanization gives background on post-harvest handling in farm supply chains.
