Bucket elevator condition monitoring

Bucket elevators

Bucket elevators lift raw meal, clinker or cement. Drive, pulley or head/tail bearing failure stops the path and risks burying the boot. Drive and pulley diagnostics cut unplanned stops.

Monitor head/tail bearings, drive/gearbox/coupling, chain/belt tension (related), Artesis current on bucket jams. Artesis + SDT on pulley bearings; SCOUT after rebuilds.

See vertical mills, clinker crushers, belt conveyors.
