Material Handling

Chief Elevators

Chief bucket elevators are built to last and easy to maintain. Components are manufactured to precise standards from heavy gauge materials to provide easy installation and strength and are designed for convenience with urethane liners, easy-open hinged discharge inspection doors, and head hood slide clamps.

Chief Conveyors

Chief horizontal chain conveyors come standard with fully galvanized intermediate sections and can be customized to your application by combining exterior gauging, liners, chain types, sprocket options, paddles and speed requirements. By using components fabricated to exacting specifications, your Chief chain conveyor will be easy to assemble and provide long-lasting service.
