​Z Type Bucket Elevator

Product description

The Z-type elevator is a highly space-efficient material conveying equipment. It uses a drive device to move the circulating chain and the hoppers fixed on it along a Z-shaped path to achieve vertical lifting and horizontal conveying of materials. It adopts an inflow feeding method and non-digging material removal, which can effectively reduce the breakage rate of granular materials. It is suitable for various materials such as powder, granules, and small blocks, and has a fully enclosed structure to reduce dust leakage. With features such as multiple feed and discharge ports that can be set, low energy consumption, and stable operation, it is widely used in food processing, chemical and pharmaceutical, agricultural and mining industries, especially in production scenarios with limited space, significantly enhancing the flexibility and efficiency of material transfer.

Working principle

The working principle of the Z-type elevator is that the drive device drives the closed circulating chain to rotate. The fixed hoppers on the chain receive materials from the feeding port - using the inflow feeding method, the materials naturally fall into the hoppers, reducing friction and breakage. Then, the hoppers loaded with materials move along the Z-shaped path with the chain, first vertically lifted to the set height, and then horizontally conveyed for a certain distance. When reaching the top discharge port, the hoppers are turned over by the chain turning or flipping mechanism to unload the materials. The empty hoppers after unloading continue to return along the chain to the feeding port position to receive materials again, forming a continuous circulation conveying process. The overall structure is enclosed to reduce material leakage and dust diffusion, ensuring efficient and stable material transfer.

Product characteristics

1. High space utilization: Operating along the Z-shaped path, it can simultaneously achieve vertical lifting and horizontal transportation within a compact space, significantly saving installation space and being suitable for scenarios with restricted factory layouts.
2. Wide material adaptability: It can efficiently transport various materials such as powders, granules, and small blocks. By choosing different material hoppers, it can also meet the transportation needs of corrosive and fragile materials.
3. Flexible feeding and discharging: It supports multiple feeding ports and multiple discharging ports, enabling the collection of materials from multiple locations or the transportation of materials to multiple processes, suitable for complex production processes.
4. Lower energy consumption: Using a single motor drive and combining with variable frequency speed regulation technology, it can adjust power according to the load. Compared to traditional equipment, it is more energy-efficient.
5. Stable and reliable operation: Equipped with an automatic tensioning device, it avoids chain slippage and disengagement, and the closed structure reduces external environmental influence. It has a low failure rate and a long service life.
6. Adequate material protection: Flow-in type feeding reduces particle fragmentation, and the fully enclosed design prevents material leakage and dust dispersion, reducing material loss and environmental impact.
