bucket spacing
with precisely timed belt speed to ensure optimum grain delivery. Safety and ease of
maintenance are designed into every elevator we make.
Convenience, Safety and Strength are three words that describe Chief Bucket
Elevators.........especially the boot section. Chief's unique hat section
bottom panel is built 2-1/4" off the ground to prevent material from standing
in shallow water. There are several inspection doors on the boot section,
including two pulley bushing access doors which allow inspection and maintenance
of bushings. Both manual and gravity type take-up boot sections are offered.
Chief also manufactures several types of trunk sections to fit your requirements.
Equipping your installation with Chief handling systems will open the door for greater
production opportunities. Trunking sections are manufactured with flanges continuously
welded to the casing. Chief utilizes a digital Clinometer to ensure straight,
twist-free trunking.
Chief Bucket Elevators are available with capacity ranges from 100 to 40,000 BPH, and all Chief
Grain Elevators are backed by a two-year limited warranty. Either PVC or rubber static conductive
and fire retardant belting is available.
A complete line of handling equipment can be designed for new or existing grain facilities.
Our equipment is built with flexibility in mind. For your next handling project consider the
