WHAT ARE ELEVATOR BUCKETS?
Elevator buckets, also known as bucket elevators or elevator cups, are key components in vertical grain and bulk material handling systems. They are installed on elevator belts and operate within bucket elevators, collecting and discharging products such as soybeans, fertilizers, sugar, corn, feed, minerals, and other bulk solids.
WHAT ARE ELEVATOR BUCKETS USED FOR?
The main function of the elevator bucket is to transport materials from a lower point to a higher point in a continuous, safe, and efficient way. They are widely used in silos, plants, warehouses, food industries, fertilizer production, mining, ports, and logistics terminals.
WHAT TYPES OF ELEVATOR BUCKETS ARE AVAILABLE?
At Ucelo, we offer a wide range of models to meet different operational demands:
-
AGRICULTURAL LINE: Elevator buckets with excellent cost-benefit ratio, ideal for agribusiness applications such as corn, soybeans, wheat, and other grains.
-
INDUSTRIAL LINE: More robust elevator buckets, developed for continuous work operations with high abrasiveness or elevated temperatures.
In addition, we work with different materials such as polyethylene (HDPE), nylon 6, and nylon 6.6, adapting each project to the customer’s needs.
HOW TO CHOOSE THE IDEAL BUCKET?
The choice of the ideal elevator bucket depends on factors such as:
-
Type of material being transported
-
Load capacity and elevator speed
-
Temperature and abrasiveness of the environment
-
Type of belt or chain used
