In the processing, storage and sorting of dry chickpeas, efficient and lossless material transportation is the key to ensure product quality and production efficiency. Traditional conveying methods may cause chickpea breakage, dust, and even cross contamination. As a professional Z type bucket conveyor manufacturer, we are well aware of the particularity of dry chickpeas and are committed to providing you with customized vertical conveying solutions.
Dried chickpeas Z Bucket Elevator is a vertical-horizontal integrated conveying equipment designed for chickpeas, beans and granular foods. It adopts a Z-shaped structure to achieve efficient material lifting and transfer in a narrow space. Compared with traditional conveyors, Z type bucket conveyor occupies a small area, has strong sealing, and has a low material damage rate. It is particularly suitable for chickpea processing, packaging, warehousing and other links to ensure food hygiene and safety.
Conveying capacity: 5--30 tons/hour
Lifting height: 3-30 meters (customizable)
Power: 1.5-5.5kW (variable frequency optional)
Hopper material: food grade PP/304 stainless steel
Applicable materials: dried chickpeas, beans, nuts, etc.
Low breakage rate: Adopt induction unloading to avoid forced scraping and ensure that the chickpeas are intact and not broken.
Hygiene and safety: Food-grade PP hopper + 304 stainless steel body, FDA/CE certified, suitable for food processing.
Sealed and dustproof: Fully enclosed structure to prevent dust from spilling, in line with food production cleanliness standards.
Energy-saving and high efficiency: Variable frequency motor + optimized conveying path, 30% energy saving compared to traditional elevators.
Flexible layout: Z-type structure is suitable for low-rise to high-rise transportation, saving plant space
When the Z Bucket Elevator is working, the dry chickpeas enter from the lower feed port. A series of hoppers are fixed at equal intervals on the chain or belt. Driven by the drive device, the hoppers pick up the materials from the feed port and lift them upward along a closed vertical or inclined track. When the hopper runs to the upper discharge port, due to gravity or centrifugal force, the dry chickpeas will be discharged from the hopper and enter the next process or designated location. The entire lifting process is smooth and continuous, ensuring that the dry chickpeas are not squeezed or collided during the transportation process.
Raw material lifting: The Z bucket elevator can lift dry chickpeas from the raw material warehouse or the ground to the feed port of the processing equipment, realizing automatic supply of raw materials.
Conveying during processing: During the processing of dry chickpeas, the Z bucket elevator can transport materials from one process to the next, improving production efficiency and automation.
Finished product packaging: The elevator can also lift the processed dry chickpeas to the packaging machine or storage equipment to facilitate subsequent packaging and storage operations.
Application scenario | Lift height | Lift capacity | Features |
Xinjiang Agricultural Technology Co., Ltd.: Dried chickpea particles are transported from the pre-treatment workshop to the feed port of the grinder. | 8 meters | 5 tons/hour | Using 304 stainless steel and equipped with PP plastic hopper to prevent the beans from being damaged and ensure food-grade hygiene standards. This production line is mainly used to produce chickpea instant drink powder, crispy beans and other products. The elevator maintains the integrity of the material during the transportation process and reduces dust spillage |
A certain Indian biotechnology company uses it to lift the roasted chickpeas from the cooling area to the automatic packaging machine silo. | 6 meters | 3 tons/hour | Using a Z-type bucket elevator with a dustproof sealing structure to prevent the beans from getting wet. The equipment runs stably, adapts to the needs of automated production, supports multi-point unloading, and meets the feeding needs of different packaging lines. |
A large food processing plant in the United States uses it to lift the screened dry chickpeas from the storage area to the color sorter feed port. | 10 meters | 8 tons/hour | It uses carbon steel spray-coated shell, wear-resistant chain, and is equipped with variable frequency speed regulation function to meet the transportation needs of different batches of materials. The equipment runs with low noise and meets the environmental protection requirements of food processing workshops. |
The following points should be considered when choosing a Dried chickpeas Z Bucket Elevator:
Material characteristics: moisture content, particle size (such as whole/broken beans).
Production requirements: hourly conveying volume (1-30 tons optional).
Plant layout: horizontal + vertical conveying distance.
Sanitary level: food grade/industrial grade requirements
Dried chickpeas Z Bucket Elevator plays an important role in the production and processing of dried chickpeas. It improves production efficiency, reduces labor input, and realizes automated production through efficient and stable material transportation, making a positive contribution to the development of the dry chickpea industry
