Q: What is the difference between a bucket conveyor and a bucket elevator?
A: Although the terms “bucket conveyor” and “bucket elevator” are often used interchangeably, there are some subtle differences in meaning. The term “bucket elevator” is the more traditional and perhaps more frequently used term. It is often used to refer to vertical conveyors that are used in agricultural and farm applications to move grain and other bulk commodities.
Bucket elevators typically scoop product up with rapidly moving fixed buckets and discharge the material using centrifugal force. Bucket conveyors, in contrast, are positive discharge conveyors, where the buckets are held in an upright position and discharged using mechanical or other means. Bucket conveyors are typically used in situations where the gentle handling of product is a primary concern.
Q: What are the power requirements of a bucket conveyor?
A: One of the major advantages to bucket conveyors is the lower power requirements of the equipment. With the weight of a loaded bucket assembly on either side of the vertical elevation of the conveyor being equal, the system is in balance. The only power required is that needed to overcome the inertia of the system and the weight of the material being lifted. Consequently, well-designed bucket conveyors can be operated with relative low energy requirements.
Q: Are bucket conveyors suitable for outdoor applications?
A: Bucket elevators are suitable for use outdoors. Typically, bucket conveyors for outdoor applications use stainless steel fasteners to prevent corrosion and rusting, and are often fully enclosed to protect the internal components.
