Bucket Elevators & Conveyors
Schlagel Bucket Elevators
Schlagel belt and bucket elevator legs complement our line of handling equipment with performance and quality proven in the industry since 1957. As with all our equipment, we guarantee the performance and quality of these legs and design them for high reliability and low maintenance.
We manufacture standard models in sizes and capacities demonstrated by our years of experience to best fit the needs of most applications. We calculate capacities at water level plus 10% cup fill and use low belt speeds in both single and multiple row cup models. Larger sizes and models with special features are always available on request to fit your needs. Our engineering department is ready to help you design the right equipment to meet the special needs of your application.
Schlagel PowerFlow Conveyors
Incline Drag Conveyors
The incline series of Schlagel Powerflow conveyors is a continuation in our line of “En-Masse” conveyors introduced in 1970. This series is used when the normal 10 degree maximum incline of a standard series conveyor is not adequate to meet your needs.
Our incline conveyors allow a great deal more latitude in the design and layout of a bulk material handling system by enabling you to “bend” a conveyor up and over an obstacle.
You should keep in mind that while an incline style conveyor can offer a great deal of flexibility in your layout, it is better to try using our standard series of conveyors when possible. Our standard style gives you better efficiency at a lower cost and with less maintenance.
Round Bottom Conveyors
The Powerflow round bottom conveyor is an addition to our highly popular and successful line of Powerflow En-Masse Conveyors. The Powerflow round bottom offers some features not available in other styles of conveyors. The reason most often given for choosing a round bottom style conveyor is cleanout. The close tolerance in the standard contour tail section and the fit of the flights in the trough ensure the minimum amount of material left in the housing between batches of material.
It is the intention of this section to familiarize the reader with the system in general and highlight the various components available to match your installation requirements. A simplified engineering section is included to evaluate conveyor performance but is very limited in its scope. The wide variety of materials, capacities, wear factors and feeding arrangements can have a large effect on conveyor and drive selections. We ask that you discuss your system requirements with us so we may suggest an arrangement best suited to your needs.
