2. The classification and main components of bucket elevator

Bucket elevator can be divided into link chain, plate chain and belt. Bucket elevator is composed of the shell, pulling pieces (conveyor chain), hoppers, wheels (main wheel), redirecting wheel (tail pulley), tensioning device, guide, feed port (inlet port) and discharge outlet.

3. Characteristics of bucket elevator

1 Fote bucket elevator enjoys small driving power, flow-type feeding and large capacity hopper with intensive layout;

2 Fote bucket elevator has no special requirements on materials, with good sealing and less environmental pollution;

3 Long service life, the machine is designed to ensure that material is less scattered in the feeding and unloading, greatly reducing the mechanical wear;

4 The bucket conveyor can be inclined in any inclination.

4. How to maintain the normal operation of bucket elevator?

1 Both the upper and lower bearings should be regularly lubricated to ensure good working conditions;

2 Check lubrication of reducer regularly to keep the proper fuel;

3 Tension devices require periodic inspection and adjustment. When the tension travel is less than 1/5 specified size, bit off pieces (usually shorten from a bucket) to restore the tension travel.

5. Exclusive services

All dimensions are designed and manufactured in accordance with your actual need, designed by the computer and matched with vertical packaging machine, starting-stopping of the machine can be controlled by signal identification of the packaging machine.
