BUCKET ELEVATORS

Vertical Transportation with Efficiency, Reliability, and Robust Engineering

Equipment developed for vertical enclosed transport of the most diverse types of bulk materials.

Based on knowledge developed and accumulated over the years, we size and design elevators that deliver maximum performance.

The buckets have a carefully developed geometry and can be driven by chain or belt depending on the application.

The Haco elevator chain excels in applications where a belt is not recommended.

Manufactured with quality raw materials and heat treatments and with high technology, the Haco elevator chain delivers a long service life, high levels of wear resistance and has an extremely simple interface with the buckets.

Haco elevators are divided into two groups according to the type of discharge:

Continuous discharge: suitable for abrasive, high-grain, fragile and fine materials;
Centrifugal discharge: suitable for materials with free flow, medium and low abrasiveness;

Applied Engineering for Maximum Reliability

Each unit is designed with a focus on robustness and operational safety, incorporating:

Self-supporting or reinforced housings, with removable panels to facilitate assembly and maintenance;
Optimized buckets in different shapes and volumes, manufactured from materials such as carbon steel, stainless steel, and special steels, according to the abrasiveness, humidity, and temperature of the product being transported;
Rubber belts or special chains, with tensile and wear resistance adapted to the mechanical stress of the system;
Traction and return drums with coatings to maximize grip and reduce wear;
Drives with high-efficiency geared motors and the possibility of frequency inverters for flow control and maintenance.

Available Versions

Bucket elevators with chain or continuous discharge belt are ideal for fragile, sticky, or abrasive products that require smoother and more controlled transport.
Bucket elevators with centrifugal discharge chain or belt, suitable for materials with good flowability and low tendency to stick.
Wheels and drums are equipped with segments (crown and plates), facilitating replacement and reducing downtime during maintenance.

Dimensional Versatility and Special Configurations

We work with capacities up to 1,200 m³/h and heights exceeding 60 meters, with options for:

Continuous or centrifugal discharge;
Inspection doors and various points to facilitate inspection and/or maintenance, bucket guides and rotation, backflow and clogging sensors;
High-performance tensioning systems suitable for each model;
Internal linings made with wear plates, special steels, ceramics, or high-strength polymers.

Security and Intelligent Monitoring

All Haco bucket elevators can be supplied with:

Integrated safety systems (slip sensor, misalignment, bearing temperature, minimum rotation);
Complete electrical panel with PLC and interface to supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) systems;
Compliance with NR-12 standards, including movable guards, emergency stop buttons, enclosure of moving parts, and safety signage.
