• BUCKET ELEVATORS

    Centrifugal and Continuous Discharge Elevators

    Bucket elevators are designed to move flowing powders or bulk solids vertically. Bucket elevators use an endless belt or chain and have a series of buckets attached to it. Bulk material is spread into an inlet hopper. Buckets dig into the material and convey it up and over the head sprocket/pulley, and then throw the material out a discharge throat. Bucket elevators are not self-feeding and are fed at a controlled rate. The buckets are usually where the chain or belt path is vertical or steeply inclined in a single plane. The buckets are returned back down to a tail pulley or sprocket at the bottom.
    Bucket Elevators Specification
    There are four broad classifications of bucket elevators: centrifugal, continuous, positive, and internal discharge. The most commonly used are the centrifugal and continuous discharge elevators. Conveyor Technology Services industrial bucket elevators are made in a variety of shapes, weights and sizes, all utilising centrifugal buckets or continuous buckets.
  • MUS4 Bolt Tension Stainless Secondary Cleaner

    The MATO MUS4 belt cleaner is one of our latest designed belt cleaners and offers our M-TRAK slide on cushion and blade for easy installation and maintenance. The unique M-TRAK is designed to eliminate long maintenance down times and ensures that all blade alignments are 100% true across the entire conveyor belt width. Blade replacement is very simple with the design of the slide on and slides off principle, meaning no special tools or training is required when maintenance is performed. The MUS4 cleaner is specifically designed to be installed on conveyor systems that are either fully spliced or have mechanical belt fasteners. The MUS4 cleaner has a low minimum height requirement for installation.

    Polyurethane Blades

    These are 85A shore hardness, FRAS approved polyurethane.

    Bolt Tension

    The MATO standard bolt tension assembly allows for easy adjustment during the initial setup of the blade and for ongoing changes to the blade height as it wears. Bolt tension assemblies work very well with a cushioned or flexible blade system.

  • Bolt Tension Tungsten Carbide Pre Belt Cleaner

    The MATO MCP1 Belt Cleaning Unit is an aggressive head drum cleaner consisting of a multiple blade section, in line, mounted just under the Tangential centre line of the head pulley, to remove the bulk of the carryback material to return to the main flow of product being conveyed. The MCP1 cleaner is mounted underneath the head drum to ensure no material build-up occurs on the cleaner unit, and to eliminate the risk of damage from the cleaner to the belt. Each blade is individually mounted with a rubber tensioning cushion to ensure even blade pressure across the face of the head drum. Tungsten carbide blades are used for fully Vulcanised Belts and Polyurethane Blades are used for mechanically fastened belts.
