What type of tubs can this elevator handle?

These elevators are typically designed for specific tub dimensions and weights. Buyers should confirm the compatibility of their existing tubs with the elevator's carriage and lifting capacity.

Is installation complex?

Installation typically involves bolting the unit to the floor and may require additional structural bracing, particularly for higher discharge heights. Professional installation is recommended.

What maintenance is required?

Routine maintenance usually includes checking chains, sprockets, motor gearbox, and safety interlocks. Regular cleaning, especially in food environments, is also essential.

Can the discharge height be adjusted?

Most tub elevators are built to a fixed discharge height. Customisation for adjustable heights is possible but would typically require a bespoke unit or significant modification.

What are the typical safety features?

Common safety features include full perimeter guarding with interlocked access doors, emergency stop buttons, and mechanisms to prevent operation if a door is open or the load is not correctly seated.

Is this suitable for outdoor use?

While stainless steel offers corrosion resistance, the electrical components and overall design are typically for indoor, controlled environments unless specifically rated for outdoor use.

BTM/2P/1350/6320/B/G Double Pillar Bakery Tub Elevator

This Bakery Tub Elevator is designed to lift and tip a 1350 Kgs Dough Tub (2032mm x 1052mm x 937mm H) at a discharge height of 6320mm. The Bakery Tub Elevator is manufactured from Grade 304 stainless steel, is a welded construction throughout and is designed to be bolted to the floor with some additional bracing near the top. The lifting is accomplished via chains driven by a motor gearbox mounted at the top of the one column with a crossover shaft to the other column. The Dough Tub is loaded to tip along its long length using a Forklift Truck or similar.

Safety Guard to BS EN 14120:2015 Safety of Machinery Guards

This Bakery Tub Elevator is supplied complete with a safety guard to meet the guidelines of BS EN 14120:2015 Safety of Machinery Guards. The safety guard is constructed from 80 x 40 x 3mm stainless steel box section and 40 x 40mm aperture, 3mm wire stainless steel weld mesh which encloses the Bakery Tub Elevator to a height of 7820mm on all sides with a pair of hinged safety guard doors at the loading position. The guard doors are electrically and mechanically interlocked preventing the machine from operating when a door is open. Additionally, the guard doors can only be opened when the lift carriage is at the full down position to prevent access whilst a load is raised.

Bakery Tub Elevator Electrical Control

This Bakery Tub Elevator is fitted with an IP65 Stainless Steel Control Panel which is mounted on the Safety Guard at a convenient position to give good maintenance access under the Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulation 1998 (PUWER). The control panel incorporates the following controls; Up, Down, Guard Release, Emergency Stop and a Reset Facility.

Upper and Lower end of travel limit switches are positioned to prevent inadvertent adjustment or damage but are easily adjustable by trained personnel for fine adjustment on site. The Bakery Tub Elevator operation is latched so that pressing the ‘Up’ push button once will raise the lift to the full tip position. Once the product has been discharged, after an adjustable time period, the Bakery Tub Elevator will return to the full down position. The control panel has a volt free pair of contacts which can be used to connect a ‘Call to Run’ signal if required.
