Introduction

Bucket elevator belts are essential for the efficient and safe vertical transportation of bulk materials in various industries. Choosing the right belt type and maintaining it properly can significantly enhance the performance and lifespan of a bucket elevator system.

Types of Bucket Elevator Belts

  1. EP/NN Rubber Belt: Typically made from polyester or nylon fabrics, offering a balance between strength, flexibility, and cost.
  2. PVC/PVG Solid Woven Belt: Both PVC and PVG belts have a solid woven fabric core that provides tensile strength and flexibility.
  3. Steel Cord Belt: Incorporate steel cords for extra tensile strength, ideal for very high loads and long lifts.

Construction of Bucket Elevator Belts

  1. Carcass: The core of the belt, typically made from high-strength synthetic fabrics like polyester or nylon, providing the necessary tensile strength and flexibility.
  2. Covers: The outer layers of the belt, usually made from rubber or other synthetic materials, protect the carcass and provide resistance to wear, heat, and chemicals.
  3. Bucket Attachments: Holes or slots are incorporated into the belt to securely attach the buckets. These attachments are critical for ensuring the buckets stay in place during operation.

Advantages & Highlights

  • High Tensile Strength

    The belts are designed to withstand the high tension required to lift materials vertically.

  • Durability

    Made from materials that resist wear, abrasion, and impacts, ensuring a long service life even under heavy-duty conditions.

  • Flexibility

    Flexible enough to accommodate the bending around pulleys and the dynamic movements of the buckets.

  • Heat and Chemical Resistance

    Specially formulated belts can resist high temperatures and exposure to various chemicals, making them suitable for a wide range of materials.

  • Low Elongation

    Minimal stretching under load ensures stable and efficient operation.

  • Safety

    Fire-resistant and antistatic properties can be incorporated for specific applications, especially in industries like mining and grain handling.

Application & Gallerys

A bucket elevator belt is a critical component of a bucket elevator system, which is used to vertically lift bulk materials in various industrial applications. 

  • Agriculture: Lifting grains, seeds, and other agricultural products.
  • Mining: Elevating ores, coal, and other mined materials.
  • Cement and Building Materials: Transporting cement, sand, gravel, and other construction materials.
  • Food Processing: Handling food products like sugar, flour, and bulk food items.
  • Chemical Industry: Conveying raw materials and finished products in chemical processing plants.
  • Power Plants: Lifting coal and other fuel sources.
