How to choose a Bucket lifting conveyor?
Bucket elevator is a commonly used lifting equipment for material lifting in various industries. It is a mechanical conveying equipment with a fixed device. It is mainly suitable for continuous vertical lifting of powder, granular and small materials. It can be widely used in various scales. Upgrading of bulk materials in feed mills, flour mills, rice mills, oil mills, starch mills, grain depots, and ports.
Whether the bucket elevator can give full play to its efficiency in use, meet the needs of production, and maximize productivity, the selection of the material bucket elevator is very important when purchasing.
Generally, the selection of bucket elevator depends on
1. The form of the material: whether the material is powdery, granular or small.
2. The physical properties of the material: whether the material has adsorption or viscosity, and whether it contains water.
3. The specific gravity of the material: The general bucket elevator parameters are designed and calculated for materials with a bulk specific gravity below 1.6. The material specific gravity that is too large requires the calculation of the traction and the tensile strength of the transmission part.
4. Transport volume per unit time.
Generally speaking, the shape of the material directly determines the discharging method of the material. The common rule is that the powder material is discharged by centrifugal ejection, the bulk material is discharged by gravity, and the different discharging method determines the hopper form used by the bucket elevator. The centrifugal projectile discharge mostly uses shallow buckets and arc buckets, while gravity discharge needs to use deep buckets.
The type of hopper used by the bucket elevator is different, the material conveying volume lifted per unit time is different.
The final conveying capacity of the bucket elevator is a comprehensive parameter that depends on the hopper form, bucket speed, material specific gravity, material properties, and the number of hoppers.
The selection process is as follows: material proportion → transmission mode (bucket lift model) → material properties → discharge method → hopper form → lifting capacity of this series of bucket elevators → determine the model. When selecting the hoist, it is necessary to know the name of the material used for lifting, the characteristics of the material (including the particle size, density, temperature, humidity, fluidity, etc. of the material), the conveying volume of the material, and the height of the lifting (the inlet and outlet of the hoist) distance).
The above are the common methods for choosing bucket material elevators. Zhengzhou Kaiyu Packaging Equipment Co., Ltd. provides customers with material elevators that meet your needs.
