Morton, IL — 4B Components is excited to expand its Jumbo bucket elevator line to include a 20x10 inch size that is also available with the patented slotted Super Vent.
“Our Jumbo products are considered the most efficient and durable elevator buckets available in the global market today,” says Roger Bruère, Vice President - Material Handling Division.
“The new 20x10 option is ideal for high-throughput receiving legs, barge loadout terminals or high-wear applications where the elevator is feeding on the downside or moving abrasive products.”
With this addition, Jumbo elevator buckets now come in seven different sizes.
The Jumbo bucket offers the thickest corners, front face and back wall for superior abrasion resistance and durability. Its wingless design and tapered bottom deliver extremely efficient fill and discharge.
Jumbo series buckets are also designed to nest for reduced freight and storage costs.
At water level +10%, the capacity of the 20x10 is 1,140 cubic inches, making 25,000 BPH easily attainable with a single row.
When installed in Low Profile configuration, 30,000 bph can be achieved. In a triple row configuration, 90,000 bph can be achieved.
“With the Jumbo 20x10 size, it takes fewer buckets to achieve more bushels per hour and less labor to install them on the belt, translating to lower costs,” says Bruère.
“Plus, a narrower elevator leg casing can be used, allowing it to fit in tighter, more constrained spaces.”
The patented slotted Super Vent option has been researched and proven to be more efficient than even Vent #3 and Vent #4 patterns.
Jumbo elevator buckets are designed and molded by 4B Components Limited in Morton, IL USA.
