Do you know the key points for selecting motors and reducers for bucket elevators?
The selection of electric motors and reducers in the core components of bucket elevators directly determines the operational efficiency and service life of the equipment. As a professional bucket elevator manufacturer, we deeply understand the importance of scientific selection. Below are the key steps revealed for you!

1、 Motor power calculation
The selection of motors should be based on the model, design output (such as hourly processing capacity), material characteristics, and lifting height of the bucket elevator. For example, the higher the height and material density, the greater the required motor power. By using dynamic formulas and actual operating parameters, the motor power can be accurately matched to avoid "small horses pulling large vehicles" or energy waste.
2、 Key points for matching reducers
After determining the motor power, it is necessary to choose a suitable reducer. When there are no special requirements, a hard tooth parallel shaft reducer is an ideal choice - its gears are made of high-strength alloy steel carburizing and quenching process, with strong load-bearing capacity and high transmission efficiency, especially suitable for continuous heavy load conditions of bucket elevators. When selecting, attention should be paid to the speed ratio, torque, and installation method of the reducer to ensure a perfect fit with the motor and head axle.
3、 Why choose a hard tooth parallel axis reducer?
1. Durability: Hard tooth surface treatment is wear-resistant, extending the service life by more than 30%;
2. Energy saving: transmission efficiency reaches 96%, reducing energy consumption costs;
3. Stable and low-noise: Precision machining technology ensures smooth operation and reduces failure rates.
The scientific selection of motors and reducers is the foundation for the stable operation of bucket elevators. Only by paying attention to the matching details between the motor and the reducer can the hoist truly achieve "quality improvement and efficiency enhancement"!
