The boot conveyor serves for transporting and lifting of no-dust and bulk materials. The principle of conveyor operation is transporting the products along the conveyor belt on which the buckets are installed. Thus, taking the product from the hopper.
Bucket conveyor can also be included in an automated line designed for filling and packaging products. Boot conveyor can be used for loading packing and batching equipment, as well as to load the product into the storage tanks, feeding the product from one hopper into another, etc.
The biggest advantage of the conveyor VZ-2 is the presence of the storage hopper and the unit for filling functional hopper. With the help of which it is possible to maintain a set amount of product that ensures the continuity of the process (control unit interrupts conveyor operation at the time of filling the hopper till the level of the product has been reduced).
The difference of conveyor VZ-2 from the conveyor VZ-1 is the absence of vibrating chute or feeder (conveyor belt buckets scoop the products from the storage hopper).
According to this feature, the conveyor VZ-2 is used only for good bulk materials (rice, salt, buckwheat etc.) and, thus, are not universal.
