Custom Bucket Elevator Selection and Design for Lifting Heights up to 80 m

Configuration range

The available product range supports lifting heights of 28–80 m and conveying capacities of 34–491 m³/h. Chain and belt types are available; the appropriate option depends on the material and the conditions at the installation site. The final configuration should be confirmed against the project’s operating requirements.

What to assess before selecting a bucket elevator

Drive power, bucket sizing, and chain strength

Drive power should be determined for the specific elevator configuration and operating conditions rather than selected from lifting height alone. The required capacity, material, lift, and equipment design are relevant inputs to the engineering assessment.

Bucket dimensions and, where applicable, chain strength should likewise be checked as part of the project design. ZhengZhou TianQi Machinery can use project-specific requirements to assess the configuration; a final power rating or component selection should not be assumed without those details.

Information to provide for a project review

1. Material to be conveyed, including whether it is powder, granular material, coal, cement, ore, or another bulk material.
2. Required conveying capacity and lifting height.
3. Operating conditions, installation layout, and any project-specific constraints.
4. Any preferences or requirements relating to chain or belt configuration.
