Vertical conveyor for fine aggregates and minerals
Optimize the handling of abrasive materials with a vertical conveying solution that ensures precise and efficient transportation of fine aggregates and minerals, maintaining product integrity while enhancing your process flow.

Elevates and Conveys Fine Materials Vertically
The EI-type Bucket Elevators from WAMGROUP efficiently elevate and convey fine materials such as minerals, sand, and ceramics in a variety of industries, including building, chemical, and heavy manufacturing. With a robust design that employs abrasion-resistant components, our elevators operate at low speeds to minimize wear, ensuring a long service life even with abrasive materials. Engineered for seamless integration into material handling and processing lines, this equipment supports a discharge height of up to 44 meters, achieving throughput rates of 500 m³/h. Constructed from hot-galvanized carbon steel, and available in stainless steel upon request, the elevators feature solid roller bearings and variable trunking sections to accommodate any production needs. They can be customized with various options, including ATEX compliance and advanced sensors for belt misalignment and rotation, ensuring reliable and sustainable operation in demanding environments. Additionally, our bucket elevators simplify maintenance and assembly with strategically placed inspection hatches, facilitating quick access and minimizing downtime.
