Bucket elevators, an efficient solution

How can you use your expensive soil economically efficient? This is possible with a bucket elevator. If you raise your product with an elevator to a height of, for example, 30 meters, you only need a ground surface of approximately 2 m². A belt conveyor quickly reaches a length of 60 meters, with supports the surface area needed will easily be 120 m².

What you need for a bucket elevator

  • a good foundation
  • a metered supply of product
  • lateral support per 10 meter height

Suitable means of transport

The bucket elevator has already proven its value as an extremely reliable means of transport for the transport of dry materials such as grains and flours. Due to the development and application of rubber belts and plastic inserts, there is hardly any elongation and the powers to be transferred have been greatly improved. Because of this and the use of modern plastic cups, the elevator is also very suitable as a means of transport for sand, gravel and other abrasive and slightly adhesive products.

By applying the most advanced techniques and materials, Jansen & Heuning can supply a suitable elevator for every product. What makes our elevators so suitable?
  • wear resistant plastic cups
  • wear resistant upholstery in head and foot
  • low-stretch belt or wear resistant chains
  • hinged inspection doors
  • electronic skew monitoring
  • centrifugal or gravity discharge
  • gastight and / or heat resistant

The advantages of bucket elevators

The use of wear-resistant materials in the right places guarantees a long service life. You can avoid emergencies by using electronic misalignment monitoring. The elevators are resistant to rainwater and dustproof.

Durability of chain conveyors, a practical case
Long service life and lower energy consumption by using a plastic base plate. 15 year of mais conveying proves the benefits. By applying a complete plastic wear plate to the base of the chain conveyor, a long service life of the base is achieved. The chain is supported over the entire surface and not only glides over the chain links, but the flights also carry along. Energy consumption has been shown to be around 20 % lower than with other systems. The friction of the product over the plastic is lower than over steel. An example of the service life We supplied chain conveyors to Tate & Lyle for their maize soaking tubs. After 15 years, we had to replace the plastic floor of the main distribution chain. There, 1,300 tonnes of maize are handled every day, 340 days a year, which is almost 5 million tonnes in total, and only then is the first simple maintenance of the plastic parts required. Maize contains a lot of sand and abrasive material.

How to reduce dust when handling bulk goods
During transport of bulk solids dust is often released. Under health and safety regulations, companies are obliged to take action against this. A high concentration of dust A high concentration of dust particles quickly leads to you having to take measures to combat dust. Simply handing out face masks is completely inadequate. More needs to be done. The government has stipulated how high the dust concentration may be in a room for each type of substance. If the inspection authorities identify that a room contains too much dust, they are obliged to take action. No need for expensive installations right from the start Fortunately, it is not necessary to buy an expensive extraction system straight away. Sometimes it is perfectly possible to adapt the product, business process or machine so that less dust is released. Contaminated air flow If all this is not enough, it is time to think about a way to eliminate the dust. If you opt for a system that extracts the dust via a filter, you can expect a polluted airflow. There are also regulations on how high the emissions may be. Particularly strict regulations apply to hazardous substances

Storage and loading of protein-containing meals Jansen&Heuning designed a logistic system for the processing of blood meal, meat meal and feather meal. Contamination was an important issue.
Storage and loading of protein-containing meals
Jansen&Heuning designed a logistic system for the processing of blood meal, meat meal and feather meal. Contamination was an important issue. For abattoir waste processor Noblesse, our engineers studied the processing of blood meal, meat meal and feather meal. In this process, contamination, among other things, had to be taken into account. How did they do this? At Noblesse proteins the existing production site had to be improved in terms of storage and loading. The available height is 11,000 mm at the ridge and 9,500 mm at the wall, the width of tents is 45,000 mm. The main challenge for our engineers was that it had to be possible to mix from all of the silos. In addition, we had to ensure two completely separate lines to prevent contamination. Finally, all silos had to be placed on load cells for the correct dosage. Objectives * Storage capacity: feather meal 300 tons; meat meal 600 tons; blood meal 60 tons * Loading with movable conveyor above the cars with loading bellows * loading with a capacity of 60-80 tons/hour The system consists of: * new silo block consisting of five silos of over

Unique screw conveyor for sugar processing company
Diameter 800 mm; capacity 150 tonnes/hour; length 13 meter; rotating around its central inlet point. A unique screw conveyor. Jansen&Heuning designed a screw conveyor to transport sugar for sugar beet company Cosun in Hoogkerk. Cosun Beet Company aims to be the greenest and the most innovative sugar beet processor in the world and our engineers got a chance to contribute to this goal. The sugar is transported to the silos with a transportation system. All sugar is stored in four large silos where each silo is divided into 3 compartments: the core, the inner ring and the outer ring. These compartments are filled evenly. Formerly, the silos were filled using a mobile conveyor belt, however, such a system is never 100% clean and is sensitive to errors. Therefore, our engineers designed a rotating screw conveyor. The screw rests on a slewing ring and a wheelset in the middle, that moves the machine around. The screw conveyor has a diameter of 800 mm and is completely made of stainless steel 304. The filling capacity is approximately 150 tonnes/hour. With a length of 13 meter, this is a
