Bucket Elevator Classification
Belt Bucket Elevator
· The pulling element is the belt .
· Advantages: smooth running, low noise, easy maintenance, suitable for conveying lighter materials.
· Scope of application: suitable for conveying granular and powdery materials, such as grain, fertilizer, cement, sand and so on.
· Disadvantages: Limited carrying capacity, can not lift high temperature or sharp materials.
DTG Belt Bucket Elevator: Dustpan spacing is large, higher linear speed, hollowing feeding or inflow feeding, centrifu- gal throwing discharge, small external dimensions, good sealing, low price.
Ring chain bucket elevator
· The traction element is ring chain
· Advantages: wear-resistant, high tensile strength, suitable for lifting high temperature or abrasive materials.
· Scope of application: suitable for conveying heavy or high temperature materials such as ore，coal, cement clinker.
· Disadvantages: may produce high noise when running.
TH/HL ring chain bucket elevator, dustpan spacing, high linear speed, hollowing feeding, dustpan filling coefficient is high, centrifugal throwing type discharging, the requirement of material mobility is lower than NE plate chain elevator. for different mobility materials, the dustpan is divided into shallow hopper and deep hopper, and it can convey >100mm stones.
Plate chain bucket elevator
·The traction element is plate chain.
·Advantages: strong carrying capacity, suitable for large flow, high head material transportation.
·Scope of application: suitable for conveying large lump or high
temperature materials, such as ore, slag, cement clinker, etc..
·Disadvantages: Higher cost of chain and driving part.
NE plate chain bucket elevator, dustpan thick arrangement,large lifting height, high conveying efficiency, running with-out slipping, installation of backstop to protect the equip-ment overload, low failure rate, inflow feeding, gravity dis charge, for the materials that are not easy to flow need special improvement of the location of the discharge port.
List of Bucket Elevator Distinctions
Mould | Line speed (m)/sec | Unloading method | Feeding method | Maximum height | Dustpan spacing | Weight | Prices
|
NE plate chain | 0.3-0.6 | gravitational | inflow | 40-50m | 203-400 | large caliber | expensive |
TH/HL Ring chain | 1.0-1.6 | centrifugal spray | pull-out | 30-35m | 360-640 | conveniently situated | moderately priced |
DTG Belt | 0.8-2.0 | centrifugal spray | Inflow or pull-out | 20-25m | 250-300 | light | cheaply |
