Z-type bucket elevator is a kind of high-efficiency lifting and conveying equipment that drives the hopper to transport and lift materials through a chain. It is similar to the vertical bucket elevator, but there are differences in the reclaiming, running track, and unloading method.
Additionally, our Bucket Elevators stand out compared with our competitors because they are completely modular, have pivoting buckets and can have multiple inlets and outlets. Bucket Conveyors are designed for heavy-duty operations and long lifespans. They can be delivered in powder-coated carbon-steel, stainless-steel or wet environment versions.
Our Bucket Elevators with multiple outlets feature selective bucket-tipping capabilities. This is accomplished by an air-actuated tipping ramp. The last tipping ramp is always in a fixed position, ensuring that all buckets are emptied.
