Bucket conveyor

Bucket conveyor

Bucket conveyors by AMF - Bruns depict economic, vertical conveyance and top efficiency. Our conveyors have proven themselves for many years in rough continuous operation, under extreme conditions.

Bucket conveyors are the alternative to long, inclined or steep rising conveyor belts. They are constructed cost-effective, compact and space-saving, environmentally friendly and product-safe.

A team of experienced technicians and engineers provides for full feature integration at the early stage of conveyor design and construction. For example, they provide accurate dimensioning of the buckets, belts, chains and drives to fit all customers’ requirements. They validate the conveyance speed and its effects on filling of the buckets, discharging, scooping and wear. They individually adjust the bucket conveyors to the applicable technical and spatial requirements reducing the investment costs and ensuring effective operation.

Designs of AMF bucket conveyors

  • Standard belt bucket conveyors for bulk material up to 600 m³/h
  • High-performance, high-speed bucket conveyors for a mass flow of up to 1,200 m³/h
