Bucket Elevators
Product at a Glance
Bucket elevators lift material vertically with buckets attached to a belt that runs a continuous loop around an upper (driven) and lower (idler) pulley.
Product Applications
The AGI bucket elevator product line is suitable for conveying many bulk materials including grain and grain by products, fertilizer, livestock and poultry feed ingredients, aggregates and other free flowing bulk materials. Bucket elevators are well suited to handle materials gently and are an energy efficient method of elevating materials.
AGI Advantage
AGI bucket elevators are specifically configured to meet the requirements of the material being elevated. Stainless steel is used extensively for the corrosive environment of fertilizer and wear resistant steel is used in high capacity grain bucket elevators. Each elevator manufactured by AGI is extensively analyzed to ensure a suitable configuration for the application. AGI buckets elevators are designed for high duty cycle environments and all components are of superior grade.
