    Hello paragwanjari


    Without more specific details it is difficult to provide that.
    How high will the elevator have to raise it's content?
    What is the total required capacity per hour?

    Height (ft) x Capacity (cu. ft.) x .0000379 = power required in horsepower(HP)

    Here is a LINK to a design of bucket elevators.

    Success !

    :)

    There are number of different parameters that are reqired to decide the power and torque of an elevator for example :- elevator capacity,traction means,material handeled,its granulation,bucket size,etc if you can give all the details I would calculate same for you...

    Sir,

    If the bucket's weight were to be doubled would that affect motor capacity?
