High-Capacity - Belt and Chain Bucket Elevators

摘要

Continuous improvements and new developments have pushed bucket elevators to new heights. State~of-the art systems today offer elevating distances of more than 750 meter and capacities of 7 800 m{sup}3/h, and more. In many industrial sectors the use of vertical mechanical conveyors has become an indispensable link between different production processes. In comparison to pneumatic conveyor systems belt and chain bucket elevators have the advantage that they require much less energy and offer high reliability and long service life.
