Large 400 TPH Bucket Elevator for Fertiliser Facility
We supplied a large bucket elevator for a new greenfield regional facility designed to store and dispatch fertiliser to shareholders. The custom-designed elevator was fabricated with a capacity of 400 tonnes per hour, reaching almost 25 metres in height.
Challenges
The client required a robust conveying solution capable of reliably lifting high volumes of fertiliser to significant heights. Fertiliser is an abrasive and corrosive product, which can cause rapid wear on handling equipment if not designed for heavy-duty performance.
Our Solution
We designed and fabricated a bucket elevator specifically for heavy-duty, industrial use. The unit was designed to handle fertiliser efficiently at 400 TPH and nearly 25 metres of lift. Drawing on our wider experience, we also provided upgrade options to increase the flow rate of existing elevators without requiring complete replacement, and offered specialised designs for grain handling applications.
Outcome
The completed bucket elevator delivered reliable, high-capacity fertiliser handling for the regional facility. Its design ensured durability, efficiency, and safe operation, supporting the client's long-term requirements for storage and dispatch.
