Bucket Elevator

Bucket elevators are the most economical way of raising bulk materials up to a height from which they can be distributed into silos or processes via spouts or chutes. A series of plastic or metal buckets are mounted on a belt and driven by a gearmotor attached to a pully in the elevator head. Material can be fed into the down leg, or the up leg of the elevator boot depending on the requirements of your facility.
Kotzur offers a self-cleaning boot, which minimises the amount of material remaining in the boot once the conveying run has been completed. This reduces the maintenance hours required for facility operation. Materials of construction include mild steel with a hot-dip galvanised casing, and full stainless construction. Other materials and finishes are available on request.
Elevators can be supported by an elevator tower, external bracing or guy wires. Please contact us to find the solution best for you.
