About this product

Bucket elevators are used by a wide range of industries for the vertical conveying of all kinds of bulk materials. Given the often highly abrasive nature of the conveyed product, which may be coarse or fine-grained in size and in some cases even hot in temperature, it is vital to have a conveyor system that has been specifically designed for the job in hand. The THIELE range of high-performance bucket elevator chains are specially designed for applications of this kind. These assemblies can be used as single-strand/centre chain systems or as double-strand systems. Product characteristics long chain operating life high chain tensile forces to 2000 kN sealed chain joint optimised joint surface pressure suitable for temperatures of up to 400 °C designed to match existing bucket conveyor systems extended maintenance intervals Applications Cement Steel Fertilisers Biomass Chemicals Recycling Building materials Foodstuffs Natural resources Environment engineering Product designs THIELE HLB THIELE HLB-W THIELE HLB-WG THIELE‘s own drop forging plant stands guarantee for constant product quality with the ‚Made in Germany‘ label. Our WG-Bucket Elevator Chains are forged in-house! Chain joint is protected by labyrinth seals Labyrinth seals are also used on the push-fit bucket plates Each labyrinth is filled with high-performance lubricant Overall support width is increased by load-bearing, forged inner and outer links Accurately machined contact faces with the chain wheel ensure a uniform contact/wear pattern The bucket plate sits within the profile of the inner link Link-joint surface pressure is reduced by increasing the contact ratio of the pin in the bucket link Push-on bucket plates makes the system reversible THIELE BR
