Bucket conveyors

Bucket conveyors are especially recommended for the vertical transport of goods when there is not enough room for a conventional conveyor.

They have several buckets screwed to a band or conveyor chain which, operated by a power head located in the upper part, uplifts the goods through the centre frame.

The loading is made by emptying the goods in an opening in the lower part, (the foot). The unloading is achieved using the centrifugal force in the exit opening or head. Then, the empty bucket is ready for a new loading.
