Information
Our Bucket Elevator elevates fruit via a continuous chain with equally pitched buckets. The fruit is then gently off-loaded at a higher elevation onto a conveyor or directly into a fruit holding bin.The bucket elevator can be either a reverse dump or forward dump. The reverse dump is most often preferred for the gentler fruit handling, but both options are available in order to adapt to the configuration of the juice plant.
