Bucket Elevator
- Corn flake bucket elevator has a large lifting height: it can lift corn flakes to a higher position to meet the height requirements of different production links, such as lifting corn flakes from the ground to the feed inlet of the drying equipment or the top of the storage bin.
- Large conveying capacity: The corn flake bucket elevator has a large hopper capacity and an adjustable running speed. It can convey a large amount of corn flakes per unit time, which is suitable for the continuous production needs of large-scale corn flake production enterprises.
- Good sealing: The corn flake bucket elevator adopts a closed shell and chain drive system, which can effectively prevent corn flakes from scattering and raising dust during the lifting process, reducing material waste and keeping the working environment clean.
- Stable operation: The structure of the corn tablet bucket elevator is reasonably designed, and the matching accuracy between the various components is high. It has high stability and reliability during operation and can work continuously for a long time, which reduces the failure rate of the equipment and improves production efficiency.
- Less damage to materials: The design of the hopper can reduce the impact and friction of corn flakes during the lifting process, reducing the breakage and damage of corn flakes, which is conducive to maintaining the integrity and quality of corn flakes.
How it works
The corn flake bucket elevator uses a series of hoppers evenly fixed on the endless traction member to scoop up the material from the storage below, lift it to the top along the conveyor belt or chain, pass the top wheel and then turn down to pour the material into the receiving trough.
Corn tablet bucket elevator structure
- Head part: It is assembled into one by upper casing, driving shaft part, reducer, coupling, motor, etc.
- Middle casing: Differment nubers of middle casings can be stacked according to the lifting height.
- Lower part: It is composed of the bottom casing, driven shaft components and tensioning device. There is a door on the side of the casing, which can be opened for internal inspection and cleaning.
- Chain and hopper: The chain is usually a round steel welded link chain, and the hopper is fixed to the joint of the chain with nuts.
Product features of corn tablet bucket elevator
- Low driving power: It adopts inflow feeding, induction unloading, and large-capacity hopper intensive arrangement. There is almost no material return and digging when the material is lifted, and the invalid power is small.
- Wide lifting range: It has few requirements on the types and properties of materials. It can lift general powdery and small granular materials, as well as abrasive materials. It has good sealing and less environmental pollution.
- Good operating reliability: Advanced design principles and processing methods ensure the reliability of the whole machine operation, with a trouble-free time of more than 20,000 hours, stable operation, and can reach a higher lifting height.
- Long service life: The feeding adopts the inflow type, and there is no need to use a bucket to dig materials. There is rarely squeezing and collision between materials. The design ensures that the material is rarely scattered during feeding and unloading, reducing mechanical wear.
Conveying capacity of corn flake bucket elevator
Different types of corn flake bucket elevators have different conveying capacities. Generally, they can convey several tons to dozens of tons or even hundreds of tons of corn flakes per hour. For example, some small elevators may have an hourly conveying capacity of about 5-10 tons, while large ones can reach 50-100 tons or even higher.
Lifting height
Corn flake bucket elevators can usually meet the lifting height requirements of several meters to tens of meters. The common lifting height is around 10-40 meters. Some specially designed models can reach a maximum of 80 meters.
Applicable materials
Corn flake bucket elevator is suitable for corn flakes and various powdered, fine-grained and coarse-grained non-abrasive and low-abrasive materials, such as coal, cement, sand, clay, ore, etc.
Material selection
The parts of the corn tableting bucket elevator that come into contact with the corn tableting machine, such as the hopper and conveyor chain, are usually made of wear-resistant and corrosion-resistant materials, such as stainless steel and high-quality alloy steel, to ensure the service life of the equipment and the purity of the material. The casing is generally made of ordinary carbon steel or stainless steel, which has a certain strength and sealing performance.
