'''Belt Bucket Elevators''' are equipped with buckets on belt, moving in a vertically closed path between two pulleys. The elevators make use of gravity and centrifugal actions for operating in such a way that the material is picked up at the bottom and discharged at the upper end. These elevators are ideal for small lump size, granular, powder and abrasive material. | '''Belt Bucket Elevators''' are equipped with buckets on belt, moving in a vertically closed path between two pulleys.
