In this paper the chain driven bucket elevator, for material transport modeled and simulation studies are made to see the static and dynamic behavior. The proposed bucket elevator model is almost similar to the model developed by previous researchers for a 2 Tonne/hr capacity. This paper outlines the simulation study on proposed bucket elevator with CAD tools, NX and Ansys. With the simulation studies the scope of earlier setup enhanced to 20tonnes/hr the output. The stresses and modal shapes are critically examined on two critical components of the setup.
