Bucket Elevator Simulation
Live Animation
Dynamic Elevator Motion
The simulation speed changes with the selected belt or chain speed. Loaded buckets move upward on the carrying side and return downward on the return side. This gives a quick visual check of elevator motion, discharge type and live capacity.

Capacity Formula
q = V × ρ × Fill / Spacing
Q = 3.6 × q × v
Power Formula
P lift = Q × H × F / 367
P motor = P lift / η total
Drive Formula
RPM = v × 60 / πD
Torque = 9550 × P / RPM
