Bucket Elevator for Cement, Clinker & Powder Materials
（Bucket Elevator untuk Semen, Klinker & Bahan Bubuk）
High-efficiency vertical elevator for cement, fly ash, minerals & bulk powder materials—low power consumption and sealed dust-free operation.
Overview
Bucket elevators are widely used to vertically lift powder, granular and small bulk materials such as cement, clinker, fly ash, limestone, minerals and aggregates. Their sealed casings, wear-resistant buckets and high-strength belts or chains ensure reliable conveying with minimal power consumption and reduced material spillage.
Designed for industrial applications, LVRUI bucket elevators deliver stable operation, low noise and long service life, meeting the requirements of cement plants, grinding units and bulk material processing lines.

Working Principle
Material enters the inlet hopper at the boot section and is taken up by moving buckets. The filled buckets are lifted to the head pulley, where the material is discharged into chutes by centrifugal or gravity discharge methods while the empty buckets return downward in a sealed casing.

FAQS About Bucket Elevator for Cement & Powder Materials
Q1: What materials can a bucket elevator handle?
A: Vertical elevator system is designed to handle a wide range of bulk materials including cement, clinker, fly ash, limestone, minerals, sand, and granular powders. It is suitable for both fine powders and small lump materials used in cement plants and mineral processing lines.
Q2: What is the difference between belt bucket elevator and chain bucket elevator?
A: Belt bucket elevators are suitable for lighter materials and medium lifting heights, offering lower noise and energy consumption.
Chain bucket elevators are designed for heavy-duty applications, high temperatures, and abrasive materials such as clinker and limestone.
Choosing the right type depends on material characteristics and operating conditions.
Q3: Can bucket elevators be integrated with other conveying equipment?
A: Yes. Bucket elevators are commonly integrated with air slide conveyors, screw conveyors, and bulk loading systems to form a complete bulk material handling line for cement plants and powder processing facilities.
Q4: Is a bulk material elevator suitable for high-temperature materials?
A: For high-temperature materials such as clinker, chain-type bucket elevators with heat-resistant buckets and casings are recommended. Custom designs are available based on material temperature and capacity requirements.
Q5: What capacity and lifting height can be customized?
A: Bucket elevator capacity, lifting height, bucket type, and drive configuration can be fully customized according to your project needs, silo height, and production capacity.
