Bucket elevators for bulk material handling
In the processing industry, efficient handling and transportation of bulk materials like grains, powders, and pellets are crucial for operational efficiency. Achieving this requires reliable systems that can gently and quickly transport materials while minimizing damage and waste.
Reliable bulk material transportation
The bucket elevators by Ottevanger Milling Engineers are designed for robust conveying of bulk materials, including both granular substances and powders. With a belt speed of 1.8 m/s, the system ensures gentle handling of sensitive products like pellets and sticky materials such as meal. For maximum capacity, the speed increases to 2.6 m/s, efficiently handling free-flowing granular products like grains. The elevators offer capacities reaching up to 400 m³/h, providing versatile solutions for various industrial needs. Built with S235 steel and featuring a fully enclosed design, they also come equipped with geared drive units, flexible couplings, and belt tensioners. Additional features include service hatches, exchangeable kryptane wear plates, and oil and fat-resistant belts that withstand harsh conditions.
