Lambton Conveyor Builds the Grain Leg for Skyway Systems

Skyway uses the grain leg and drag chain conveyors from Lambton Conveyor in some of its grain systems designs. In systems where grain needs to be conveyed vertically, the Lambton bucket elevator gets the job done quickly and efficiently. In addition to the bucket conveyors, Skyway also utilizes Lambton drag chain conveyors when grain needs to be moved from bin to bin or from bin to dryer.
Skyways association with Lambton Conveyor goes back more than 20 years so designing their grain handling equipment into grain storage systems is a familiar process. Since the Grain Leg is familiar to international clients, it’s often the conveyor they ask to be part of their new Custom grain system. Lambton equipment has been incorporated into Skyway grain storage designs in locations around the world. Countries like Canada, United States, Australia, Czech Republic, Libya, New Zealand, Guatemala, and Argentina all have benefited from the installation of Lambton grain legs as part of Skyways grain system designs.

The bucket elevator is the “old reliable” in the grain handling industry, invented in 1842 by Joseph Dart and build in Buffalo, New York. The original grain legs were used in ports to handle the loading and unloading of grain being transshipped from North America to the rest of the world. The grain leg buckets deliver the gentlest handling, least spillage, lowest maintenance, minimum amount of wear and tear, and quietest operation compared to similar mechanical elevating devices on the market.
