TH chain bucket elevator price analysis

Thursday September-11 2025  17:16:50

TH chain bucket elevator price typically ranges from $350 to $7,300. This price is not fixed, but rather depends on the equipment's material, model, hopper type, lifting height, conveying capacity, and configuration. Different parameter combinations affect the overall cost of the equipment. For example, a small elevator with a lifting height of 4 meters and a lifting capacity of 2 tons/hour costs substantially less than a large elevator with a lifting height of 40 meters and a lifting capacity of 200 tons/hour. This is because large equipment requires stronger structural materials, higher-power motor drives, and more complex processes and control systems to operate at high loads. The following is a price analysis from different perspectives:

Detailed Analysis of TH Chain Bucket Elevator Prices

When choosing a TH chain bucket elevator, factors such as the model (chain, plate chain), material (carbon steel, stainless steel), height (4-50 meters), lifting capacity (5-800 cubic meters per hour), and configuration all affect the price.

In terms of material selection

TH chain bucket elevators are available in two types: plate and chain. Plate chains are suitable for conveying high-temperature materials and can withstand temperatures up to 300°C. Chains, on the other hand, are generally used for conveying general materials and are not suitable for handling corrosive materials, which can make them less durable. Therefore, plate chains are $200-$500 more expensive than chain. The elevator body is available in three materials: carbon steel, alloy steel, and stainless steel. Carbon steel is suitable for most general-purpose materials and is relatively inexpensive, costing approximately $500 to $1,500 (depending on specifications and manufacturer pricing). Alloy steel chains are suitable for materials requiring high loads and high wear resistance, and are more expensive, ranging from $1,000 to $5,000. For use with corrosive materials or in high-temperature environments, stainless steel is the most expensive, costing between $3,000 and $7,300.

In terms of lifting height and capacity

TH chain bucket elevators have a lifting height range of 4-50 meters. The price for a 4-20 meter unit generally ranges from $350 to $2,000, which is relatively low and meets general industrial needs. For a lifting height of 20-40 meters, it is suitable for most medium-sized enterprises, with prices generally ranging from $1,500 to $3,500. For lifting heights exceeding 40 meters, the equipment requires a more powerful drive system and higher-quality chains, typically costing over $2,500 to $6,000. For a lifting capacity of 5-800 cubic meters per hour, the higher the lifting capacity, the larger the motor and drive, the larger the size, the more consumables, and the higher the price.

In terms of customization

When standard TH chain bucket elevator models don't meet your lifting needs, a customized product is needed. For example, explosion-proof designs are designed for use in potentially explosive environments (such as pulverized coal plants and fertilizer plants). The equipment must meet explosion-proof standards, and the price will increase, typically by $500-$1,500, depending on the explosion-proof level and additional safety measures. Corrosion-resistant designs are suitable for use in humid or highly corrosive environments (such as chemical plants and food processing plants). Stainless steel or special coatings are required, and the equipment cost can increase by $800-$2,000.

The above TH chain bucket elevator price analysis shows that price isn't the only factor when selecting equipment. Users also need to consider the properties of the material being hoisted (particle size, moisture content, viscosity, corrosiveness), lifting height, lifting capacity, drive mechanism, and whether customization is required.
