Bucket elevators

Bucket elevators

Bucket elevators are the obvious choice for vertical transportation. One of their biggest advantages is the favorable cost-capacity ratio compared to, for instance, bulk flow chain conveyors. The downsides of these elevators are their high rotational speed and high amounts of dust they produce. ATEX requirements play an important part in the production of bucket elevators. These requirements include:

  • Explosions vent panels
  • Flame arresters (when indoors)
  • Grounding
  • Misalignment sensors
  • Motion control
  • Anti-static elevator buckets
