Silo Bucket Elevator

The silo bucket elevator is a specialized bucket elevator specifically designed for the grain industry, ports, and large and medium-sized grain storage facilities. It is mainly used for transporting loose and less dense materials (such as soybeans, corn, wheat, and rice) with a density less than 1 t/m³. It adopts a double-channel casing and features a large transportation capacity, high belt speed, high lifting height, simple and reliable structure, low energy consumption, and a conveying capacity of up to 1000 t/h. It operates smoothly.

  • Description

    The special bucket elevator for silos is a vertical and sealed conveying equipment specifically designed for use in steel silos, cement silos, grain silos, and powder storage silos. It discharges by centrifugal force, lifting the granular and powdered raw materials from the ground and pits to the top of the silo vertically, and delivering the materials into the silo for storage. It is the core feeding equipment of the bulk material storage system. It has advantages such as compact structure, environmental protection, low material fragmentation during transportation, and the ability to operate continuously. Additionally, the hopper can be made of carbon steel, stainless steel, or polypropylene (PP) materials according to the characteristics of the materials.

     

    Silo Bucket Elevator Working Principle

     

    The motor drives the head wheel to rotate the belt/chain in a circular motion. The hopper fixed on the traction piece scoops the material at the bottom of the equipment, lifts it vertically upwards along the sealed casing, and discharges the material at the top of the silo by centrifugal force. The material then falls into the interior of the silo for storage. The empty hopper then cycles back down and continues to feed materials, achieving continuous automatic feeding into the silo.

     

     

    Which Is Better For A Silo Bucket Elevator: Belt Or Chain?

     

     Chain Type

    Suitable for most silo scenarios, especially when the material particle size is > 20mm, there is abrasiveness (such as cement clinker, limestone, lump coal), the temperature is > 60℃, or a large transportation capacity is required. The plate chain is lighter in weight than the loop chain, has high strength, is wear-resistant, and supports high-speed operation (up to 1.1m/s). It is the mainstream configuration for modern large silos.


     Band Type

    Suitable only for powdery/finely granular materials with particle size < 20mm (such as flour, fine sand), with a temperature of ≤ 60℃ (for ordinary bands) or ≤ 120℃ (for heat-resistant bands). It is suitable for scenarios that are sensitive to noise, require low energy consumption and low cost. The traction component has low tensile strength and is not suitable for heavy loads or high impact conditions.

    Silo Bucket Elevator Feature

    Runs Smoothly

     

     

    The adopted flow-in feeding system can ensure that during the mechanical operation, there is almost no backflow or digging of materials when the materials are lifted, thereby reducing unnecessary power consumption.

    High Conveying Capacity

     

    The maximum conveying capacity can reach 800 - 1000 tons per hour, and the maximum lifting height can reach 65 meters.

    High Efficiency

     

    The conveying speed can reach 3.94 m/s, suitable for the rapid vertical transportation of large quantities of bulk grain.

    Good Sealing Performance

     

    The entire machine is designed with a fully sealed structure. During operation, there is no dust pollution, which can reduce the dust flying during the process of lifting materials and minimize environmental pollution.

    Compact Structure

     

    Compared with other elevators with the same lifting capacity, this equipment has a smaller size and occupies less space, effectively saving space.
