Bucket Elevator Conveyor System for Bauxite Handling

Bauxite, a key raw material for aluminum production, requires efficient handling systems like bucket elevators to transport bulk materials vertically in crushing and sand-making production lines. Our heavy-duty bucket elevator is designed for high-capacity bauxite conveyance, ensuring minimal spillage and low maintenance.

Key Features

– Robust Construction: Made of wear-resistant steel or polyurethane buckets for extended service life.
– High Efficiency: Capacities up to 500 TPH with lifting heights up to 50 meters.
– Dust Control: Sealed design reduces dust emission (<10 mg/m³).

Technical Parameters

| Parameter | Value |
|—————–|———————|
| Capacity | 100–500 TPH |
| Bucket Type | Continuous/Double-Lip |
| Motor Power | 7.5–75 kW |
| Material | Carbon Steel/SS304 |

Integration in Sand Production Line

The bucket elevator works seamlessly with jaw crushers, cone crushers, and VSI sand makers to form a complete bauxite-to-sand processing line. It lifts crushed bauxite to screening or grinding units, optimizing space utilization in compact plants.

FAQ

Q: What maintenance does the bucket elevator require?
A: Regular inspection of belts/buckets and lubrication of bearings every 500 hours.

Q: Can it handle wet bauxite?
A: Yes, with special anti-clogging buckets and drainage design.
