Elevator system has buckets of potential

Gough Engineering has completed a number of Swinglink bucket elevator systems at a rapidly expanding potato-based snack food supplier near London’s Wembley stadium.

The patented Gough Swinglink bucket elevator can carry up to 50m³ of product an hour, with bucket sizes ranging from 23cm to 91cm. A versatile bucket conveying and elevating system in a robust and durable design will transport a bulk product from one interface point in the process to its next position.

Swinglink bucket elevators have a continuous chain and bucket design with overlapping lips that present a continuous row of buckets at the in-feed station. This allows for spill-free multiple load points and multiple selectable discharge stations.

The Gough bucket design allows the buckets to remain upright throughout the circuit to ensure product integrity.

It allows for clean-in-place capabilities for maximum cleanliness and is designed with smooth bucket surfaces to eliminate product trap areas.
