4 considerations for bucket elevator selection

The bucket elevator has the characteristics of small floor space, high lifting capacity and wide range of materials. Therefore, it is more popular in lifting conveyor equipment. What should be paid attention to in the selection of bucket elevators? Today, Xiaobian will give you a brief introduction.

Bucket hoist selection needs to pay attention to the following points

First, the form of the material

The material is powdery or granular or small, which is an important factor in the selection of bucket elevators. For example, TH series bucket elevators have strong mechanical strength and are mainly used for lifting powders and small particles and small blocks. Different from TD series bucket elevators, they have higher lifting capacity and higher operating efficiency. . It is often used for the lifting of materials with a large specific gravity.

Second, the physical properties of the material

Whether the material has adsorption or viscosity, whether it is water or not, will affect the selection of the bucket elevator and the conveying efficiency of the elevator. For example, a shallow hopper is a granular material with a sloping mouth and a small depth for moist and fluidity. The material lifted by the triangular hopper is generally directed by self-flowing discharge.

Third, the proportion of materials

Generally, the parameters of the bucket elevator are designed and calculated for materials with a bulk specific gravity of 1.6 or less. Too large a specific gravity of the material requires calculation of the traction force and the tensile strength of the transmission part. The side wall of the sharp-angled bucket extends to the outside of the bottom plate and becomes a rib. When unloading, the material can be unloaded along the groove formed by the rib of the bucket and the bottom plate, and is suitable for conveying thick and heavy bulk materials.

Fourth, the output

The unit delivery volume is the most important loss number, which depends on the type of bucket elevator, motor power and other factors. Therefore, Xiaobian provides you with common parameters of bucket elevators, which hope to help you make choices.
