POLYGONMACH What is a Bucket Chain Elevator? in Kahramankazan, Ankara, Turkey

A bucket chain elevator is a heavy-duty machinery device for vertical lifting and transportation of bulk material. It consists of a series of buckets that are attached to a chain or belt; these are designed to scoop up materials from the bottom and carry them up to the top, discharging them into a receiving bin or conveyor. It plays a vital role in all those industries where handling of raw materials in bulk quantities takes place, such as agricultural produce, mining products, and different manufacturing industries. The design and operation of a bucket chain elevator ensure effective material handling with minimum spillage and less dust creation that helps in keeping the workplace cleaner.
The working principle of a bucket chain elevator is simple yet efficient. Buckets are evenly spaced on either a continuous chain or belt, and the rotating elevator scoops up material from one lower level to elevate it to a higher one for discharge.
