Reliably lift small parts and bulk goods to a height
Bucket lift, the vertical conveyor system for automated material supply: The system consists of a hopper for buffering, a feed conveyor, the vertical lift and a hopper device for discharging. The conveyed product can be filled into the specially designed hopper one box at a time. Plastic inserts for cushioning and a relief bridge ensure even weight distribution. The parts are transferred evenly from the hopper to a belt conveyor and transported to the lift. A sensor flap on the conveyor belt recognises the conveyed product and starts and stops the system as required. The lift is based on a ZRF P 2040 vertical toothed belt conveyor with screwed-on carrier buckets at 200 mm intervals. The buckets are individually manufactured using 3D printing and have a volume of approx. 1 litre. The conveyed product is transported to the target height, poured out after the deflection and discharged into a hopper via the back of the bucket in front of it. From there, the parts are conveyed via a swivelling chute for further processing. The mobile design on a base plate with feet enables flexible use in different production processes.
