Material Handling System

Belt conveyors are employed for conveying various bulk and unit loads along horizontal or slightly inclined paths and for transporting articles between various operations in production flow lines. They have found wide application in all branches of industry and are the main means of mechanical transport in foundry shops (supply and distribution of molding sands and removal of wastes), in fuel-supply systems of electric power stations, for under ground and surface transport of coal and gangue in coal industry, for delivery of ores, coke and fluxes in metal making industries they transfer building materials, fossil minerals, grain, sand, stone etc.

A bucket elevator, also called a grain leg, is a mechanism for hauling flow able bulk materials (most often grain or fertilizer) vertically.

It consists of:

• Buckets to contain the material;
• A belt to carry the buckets and transmit the pull;
• Means to drive the belt;
• Accessories for loading the buckets or picking up the material, for receiving the discharged material, for maintaining the belt tension and for enclosing and protecting the elevator.

A bucket elevator can elevate a variety of bulk materials from light to heavy and from fine to large lumps. A centrifugal discharge elevator may be vertical or inclined. Vertical elevators depend entirely on the action of centrifugal force to get the material into the discharge chute and must be run at speeds relatively high. Inclined elevators with buckets spaced apart or set close together may have the discharge chute set partly under the head pulley. Since they don't depend entirely on the centrifugal force to put the material into the chute, the speed may be relatively lower.

We design and fabricate a wide range of screw conveyors that find their usage in transportation of granular, pulverized and less frequently various small-size lumpy bulk materials to comparatively short distance (usually up to 40m horizontally or to heights up to 30m) in different industries like chemical, building materials and flour industries.

Screw conveyors in modern industry are often used horizontally or at a slight incline as an efficient way to move semi-solid materials. These can have a greater pitch spacing, resulting in a higher capacity without an increase in rotation speed. They usually consist of a trough containing either a spiral coiled around a shaft, driven at one end and held at the other or a Shaft less Spiral, driven at one end and free at the other.

We are providing clients a range of bucket elevators that are used for horizontal conveying of various free flowing material. These products lift heavy loads from initial to the final point without intermediate loading or unloading. These elevators are used in rice mill, edible oil plants, sugar mill and other places. Our engineers manufacture these elevators in different material so as to suit the different applications. These are easy economical, power saving and space saving equipment that are applicable for horizontal conveying.
 
We manufacture two types of bucket elevators that are:

•  High Speed Centrifugal discharge belt elevators
•  Low Speed Gravity discharge belt elevators
•  High Sped Centrifugal discharge chain elevators

 Our range of bucket elevators are used for conveying bulk materials that are pulverized, granular and lumpy. Some of the materials that are conveyed are cement, grain, chemicals, flour, sand, coal, peat, and other.

Some of the various areas of applications of our bucket elevators are:
 

• Chemical
• Metallurgical
• Machine-building (in foundry shops) industries
• Building materials
• Refractory
• Coal-dressing plants
• Granaries
• Food processing plants.
