Dry mortar bucket elevator

Thursday November-06 2025  14:37:10

A dry mortar bucket elevator is a type of hoist used to vertically transport dry mortar using a chain or belt-driven bucket. It can transport dry mortar from a low point to equipment at a specified height, such as mixing tanks or storage silos, with a vertical lifting height of up to 50 meters and a capacity of 10-500 m³/h. Dry mortar is a powdery or granular mixture composed of cement, quartz sand, lime powder, sand, and additives. It is dry and moisture-free, prone to dust generation, and its flowability is affected by the material's moisture content. Therefore, a fully enclosed structure is required during lifting to prevent dust leakage. For mortar with poor flowability, a deep bucket is recommended, while a shallow bucket can be used for mortar with good flowability. The bucket capacity should be between 1L and 6L.

What are the advantages of a dry mortar bucket elevator?

In dry mortar production lines, the Dry Mortar Bucket Elevator is used to lift raw materials from a low-level silo to a high-level mixer. Its vertical lifting capability minimizes floor space and allows for a lifting height of up to 60 meters, making it suitable for dry mortar production lines or mixing plants with limited factory space. The entire machine features a fully enclosed structure, preventing dust leakage and environmental pollution during transport. For materials, the hoppers and cylinders in contact with the materials are made of 304 stainless steel, ensuring corrosion resistance and material cleanliness. The shell can be made of carbon steel to reduce costs. It can transport dry mortar of different particle sizes and moisture content. Both deep and shallow hoppers are available, preventing material sticking and clogging, with a conveying capacity of up to 500 cubic meters. Customized products are also available to suit different applications and materials, such as those equipped with dust collectors to purify dust during transport.

What are the types of dry mortar bucket elevators?

There are four main types of dry mortar bucket elevators: TD belt type, NE plate chain type, TH ring chain type, and TGD steel belt type. They differ in their traction components, lifting height, type of dry mortar being lifted, and conveying capacity. The appropriate type can be selected according to the requirements.

Model Traction method Maximum lifting height Conveying capacity range Applicable temperature Features Suitable materials
TD type Dry mortar bucket elevator Rubber belt 40m 5.4-166m³/h Ordinary tape ≤60℃, heat-resistant tape ≤120℃) Smooth operation and low noise Powdered, small granular non-abrasive or semi-abrasive materials
NE type Dry mortar bucket elevator Plate chain 40m 15-800m³/h ≤250℃ Good wear resistance and long life Dry mortar with high abrasiveness
TH type Dry mortar bucket elevator Ring chain 50m 35-365m³/h ≤250℃ Simple structure, high temperature resistance High temperature, abrasive materials
TGD type Dry mortar bucket elevator Steel wire tape 60m Depending on the model ≤120℃ Large lifting height Dry mortar with high lifting height

How does a dry mortar bucket elevator work?

The working principle of the bucket elevator for dry mortar is to drive the conveyor belt to move by the motor to drive the reducer to load the bulk material onto the bucket lift. The chain or belt of the bucket lift moves under the drive to lift the bulk material from the bottom to the top. When the material reaches the target height, it is transported to the required position through a conveyor belt or a pipeline.

What are the applications of Dry mortar bucket elevator?

Dry mortar bucket elevators can be used in dry mortar production lines to lift powder, granules, and other similar bulk materials. They can be used in the building materials industry to lift raw materials such as cement, sand, and additives to the mixer, and also to transport mixed semi-finished mortar to secondary mixing or screening equipment. Qualified dry mortar can also be transported to a high-level finished product silo for storage. They can lift both ordinary and special dry mortars, such as masonry mortar, plastering mortar, floor leveling mortar, premixed mortar, thermal insulation mortar, tile adhesive, self-leveling mortar, repair mortar, and various other types of dry mortar.
