A bucket conveyor works by using buckets to scoop up material or grain, that is fed into a hopper. The bucket travels up the conveyor by a series of chains and pulleys, over the head sprocket and pulley, and dumps the material out of a discharge throat. The buckets continue down the conveyor to continue the cycle. This type of conveyor is used to till a silo with grain.
