All OBIAL elevatorsystemsconsist of a column, driveunitcap, a tensionunit, andzinc-platedsheet. Bucketsusedforverticalconveyance of grainsarestandardplastic, metal orzinc-plated metal bucketsspecificallyproducedby OBIAL.
Duetothewatertightproperties of the motor group (IP 55) located at thecap of theelevatorsystem, it needsnocover. Drive fromthe motor tothereducer is through a V-beltpulley. Thereducer is directlyconnectedtothedriveshaft. Thereare 2 observationlids at thecap of thedriveunit, allowingeasyaccessandmaintenance. Theinnerpart of thecap is coatedwithrubbertomake sure thegrainsareconveyedtothedistributorwithnodamage. Andthecylinderoverthecap is rubbercoatedtopreventslipping of thebeltandskidding.
