S CREW CONVEYORS
B UCKET ELEVATOR
S crew conveyors are bulk material transporting devices capable of handling great variety of
materials , The various application of screw conveyor proceed naturally from two factors the
characteristics of the material to be conveyed and the operating advantages peculiar to this
type of conveyor The style of flighting used in a screw feeder is dependent upon the character-
istics of the material being transported and either a regular pitch, modified pitch or a modified
diameter flight is used .
B UCKET ELEVATORS
Chain type bucket elevators, Central chain bucket elevator, Belt type bucket elevators
Miteck systems bucket elevators offer optimal solutions for vertical transportation of fertiliser, potash and salt,
cement, sand or gravel, among other materials, We have experties to convey material Upto 15 Meter height
Thanks to our wealth of experience in transporting cement, lime, gypsum, salt and fertiliser, all our bucket elevator
components are always perfectly coordinated to provide a reliable, long-lasting system.
HIGH CAPACITY CENTRAL CHAIN BUCKET ELEVATORS
UNIFORM DIAMETER AND PITCH FEEDERS
This type of screw
feeder is generally
used for handling fine,
free flowing material.
The central chain and the buckets are guided
through a return chain wheel and a tension chain
wheel during the loading process in the bucket
elevator boot.
Beside the bucket elevator casings, the essential
components are the head units and the boot units
with their specific conveying components. The gravity loaded parallel tensioning device
guarantees optimum running and guidance
conditions of the chain on the return chain wheel
and the tension chain wheel in the bucket elevator
boot.
BUCKET ELEVATOR HEAD UNIT
VARIABLE PITCH FEEDERS
Screw feeders having a variable pitch are generally used in conjunction with a screw conveyor in which the
material is choke fed
from a bin or hopper.
INCLINED SCREW CONVEYOR
Inclined screw conveyors have a greater horsepower requirement and a
lower capacity rating than horizontal conveyors. The amounts of horse-
power increase and capacity loss depend upon the angle of incline and
the characteristics of the material conveyed. Inclined conveyors operate
most efficiently when they are of tubular or hanger bearings.
Beside the housing as an essential part, the bucket
elevator head unit comprises the drive wheel with
shaft and the material discharge. The transmission of
power onto the central chain is effected via friction
through a drive wheel with a tooth- less exchangeable
sliding surface. The chain support rollers are partially
surface hardened on the basis of CrMo to guarantee
an optimum chain guidance and a long service life.
LIVE BOTTOM FEEDERS
Live bottom feeders are used to discharge materi-
als from straight sided bins and are composed of
several horizontal screws side by side which cover
the complete area of the bin bottom.
The chain support roller of the tension chain wheel
on the basis of CrMo is split and fitted with partially
hardened sliding surfaces.
The drive unit is equipped with aFliid coupling as a
starting aid and overload protection.
An adjustable discharge lip in the area of the material
discharge minimizes the material residue falling back

BUCKET ELEVATOR BOOT UNIT
The design and construction of Miteck systems bucket
elevators is based on the operating experiences of
many thousands of bucket elevators being in
operation at our customers throughout the world.
A filling level detector which is inte- grated in the
bucket elevator boot works as a safety element to
protect against overfilling by uncontrolled feed of
material into the bucket elevator boot.Also in this
case service flaps facilitate the access for inspection
