Grain Buckets - Design Considerations

BA Caulkett high capacity Grain Buckets are designed for the bulk handling of materials including grain, pellets and wood chip.

A benefit of the Grain Bucket is that larger volumes can be moved with minimum loss of grain. Where only grain is being transported BA Caulkett can design and manufacture these in a lightweight format which provides significant weight loss advantages.

Elements to consider when selecting your Grain bucket

  • Would you benefit from a Spill Guard. These can be designed into the bucket build  reducing the chance of grain spilling whilst in transit.
  • What Bucket Angle will provide you with maximum operating efficiency. By having a specific angle designed to suit your head stock this can maximise the crowd and dump potential of your machine
  • Depending on the width of grain bucket that you need would it benefit from additional support across the width of your mounting brackets to spread the load around the bucket.
  • Would corner gussets be beneficial on larger models to provide additional strength and durability
  • If you are looking for the floor length to be as short as possible would a stepped side profile be beneficial. This design allows a level bucket fill whilst maximising the tear out force
  • Depending on your equipment a lightweight grain bucket might provide you with the volume capacity you require but at a fraction of the bucket weight
