NE plate chain bucket elevator is widely used in power plant, coal industry, cement industry and other industries. NE plate chain bucket elevator usually lifts dry powdery material or granular material, therefore, inevitably the materials will be spilled or dust flied, which will lead to abnormal operation of chain bucket lifter and cause noise. ZK Corp summed up the source of noise and solutions for chain bucket lifter.

1 Abnormal noise of head sprocket wheel and end sprocket wheel

There is almost no noise, when head sprocket wheel and end sprocket wheel work normally. The bearing seat will causes noise, when bearing damages due to poor sealing or lubrication.

Solution: check the sprocket wheel bearings carefully; please replace promptly when bearings damage.

2 Abnormal noise will exists if there are materials between the guide plate and buckets, and the guide plate will be damaged ahead of time.

Solution: enlarge the inlet corner of base section, increase the loading space for material inside the bucket elevator equipment.

3 Noise generated by bite between chain and sprocket wheel.

This is for chain bucket elevator. In operation, there will be dislocation of chain and sprocket wheel when biting because of the loose chain; the chain will be deformation and damage increasing if you don’t pay attention for a long time.

Solution: adjust the take-up device, and tension the chain.
