The author gives valuable knowledge about his experiences with bucket elevators. Bucket elevators will lift bulk materials from one level to another and will function well when designed properly for the duty, and are used as designed. Since bucket elevators are used on powders, granules, grain, chip shaped products and lumpy materials, problems can occur. Mike notes possible remedies in his white paper.
