Bucket Conveyor
Power Pack’s bucket conveyor is designed with scoop bucket cleats attached to a chain or fabric belt for handling bulk materials. This conveyor type performs best when used for applications to move dry, light, or powdery material such as iron ore pellets, sand, fly ash, and small grain materials, particularly within the agricultural and forging industries.
Selecting the Right Conveyor
- The bucket conveyor handles bulk materials by the use of reciprocating buckets that move vertically along a chain or fabric belt.
- As the scoop bucket cleats are transported in a continuous row, they remain in position until they arrive at the single discharge station where they are tipped to release their product.
Common Applications
- The ideal application for the bucket conveyor is when moving dry, light, and powdery products including a variety of bulk material such as iron ore pellets, sand, fly ash, and small grains. Any substances that are wet or thick do not perform as well, however, because the buildup often causes discharge issues.
- The bucket conveyor is typically used in in the agricultural and forging industries where a steady and continuous delivery of material is needed.
