Bucket Elevators
The Z-Type Bucket Elevator is a precision-engineered transport conveyor specifically designed for handling loose, small granular powders and particulate materials. Built for optimal efficiency and product protection, this bucket elevator is commonly used in industries such as food processing, snacks, agriculture, pharmaceuticals, and chemicals.
Crafted with a stainless steel frame to ensure durability and hygiene, this elevator features plastic buckets made primarily from PP (Polypropylene), with optional ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene) materials for different application needs. These materials are chosen for their lightweight, corrosion-resistant, and food-safe properties, making them ideal for transporting delicate or contaminant-sensitive products.
The Z-type configuration allows the buckets to move in a vertical and horizontal direction, maximizing space utilization and enabling smooth product transfer from the feeding point to the discharge outlet. Bulk material is evenly distributed into each bucket via a vibration feeder, minimizing spillage and ensuring accurate handling.
Key features of the Z bucket elevator include:
- Continuous and gentle handling of fragile materials
- Customizable bucket sizes based on the type and volume of the material
- Fully enclosed design to prevent contamination
- Chain-driven mechanism supported by pulleys or sprockets at both the head and tail ends
- Seamless integration with upstream feeding systems and downstream packaging equipment
Whether you need to move lightweight powders or small particle-sized materials, this bucket elevator offers a cost-effective

How Does Bucket Elevator Work?
When you need to move large volume of bulk materials quickly ,bucket elevators are popular choice .Similar to the conveyor belt, the bucket elevators are used to transport bulk materials vertically, the difference is that the bucket elevators uses the buckets on the chain transport materials, it is consisted of machine bed, chains, buckets, motor drive chain to drive the bucket body operation, the object from an end point to the designated location, and then discharge the material.
Each buckets elevator is came with a control box, which includes the following control buttons: work ,run ,stop, run, emergency stop,adjustable speed,automatic/manual and inching, easy and convenient to operate. The control panel has two single cables used to connected with the multihead weighers, which ‘s automatically control the feeding quantity of the Z-bucket conveyor through sign form weighers, and automatically feed and stop.
How To Choose The Right Bucket Elevator ?
Generally ,These are main factors decide to choose bucket elevators .1.the form of materials. it should be bulk solid ,small block or powder .2 the characteristics of material .whether the material is sticky?corrosive ? dry or wet ?3.Delivery volume ,amount of materials to be transported per day ,per hour or per minute to calculate the bucket required ,The standard buckets is 1.6L .which can be increased or reduced according to your needs . if you still have any questions .Our professional team will give you a more detailed explanation.
Bucket Elevator Application
Bucket elevators can handle many kinds of raw materials, so it is widely used in different industries, Generally speaking, z type bucket elevator is suitable for handling bulk materials that flow easily, and it should be used most in food production or processing plants, The most common materials include:rice and grains,Snack Food, biscuits, candies, fruits and vegetables, powder (wash powder, sugar) seafood and so on.
However, the single bucket elevator is more suitable for viscous materials with a little water or oil, which are not easy to flow, such as fresh meat, cheese, fast food, etc.
