Continous Bucket Elevator

Wiese

continuous bucket elevator WIESE continuous bucket conveyors allow horizontal-vertical-horizontal conveying in a single elevator eliminating transfer points. This reduces product damage and abrasion. For many decades this conveyor has worked in various branches of industry: abrasive or soft, flakes or powder, hot or frozen, humid or aggressive. The conveyed material is not scooped, but it is gently fed in by metering equipment. The number of inlets is not limited. The filled buckets come as an interconnected and closed belt at any infeed, which is sealed either by brushes or by silicone lips. This allows a gentle, clean, spillage-free operation. The conveyed material remains spill free in the buckets and without any movement, which eliminates any product damage. Individual line layouts like Z-shape, C-shapes or cascades are possible. The horizontal and vertical leg lengths are not limited. There are many examples of WIESE elevators of more than 50metres in length. Because of the stability of the inter- connected buckets, higher belt speeds are possible enabling smaller casing sizes over standard elevators. All WIESE conveyors require little maintenance and are extremely reliable.
