A bucket elevator is really a conveyor in which buckets are installed on the vertically circulating chain, to vertically convey loads of granular powder. You will find two series of bucket elevators: NE Kind (conventional pace) and NSE Kind (large velocity). Both forms have wide-ranging applications.
(a) NE Bucket Elevator Chains
An NE type bucket elevator is usually a general-use bucket elevator that operates at a ordinary conveyance pace. The elevator is manufactured with two types of chains: Standard Conveyor Chain with Attachment G4 (normal or heavy-duty) and DK Powerful Z Conveyor Chain.
(b) NSE Bucket Elevator Chains
An NSE form bucket elevator is developed for large velocity conveyance plus the velocity is about double that of NE style. To withstand large velocity operation and also to reduce noise and shock, the chain pitch is one-half or significantly less of that on the chains for NE style. To ensure large sturdiness, pins, bushings and rollers will be the very same as those for robust Z-type.
