At Mark and Wedell, we understand the importance of accuracy and precision in sampling, which is why we have designed our Bucket Sampler (BS) to deliver consistent and reliable results. The BS is designed to extract increments/cuts from a free-falling flow of bulk materials in a vertical duct. Representativity is ensured since a complete cross section of the material is collected.
Whether you need to collect samples of grains, seeds, powders, or other granular materials, our Bucket Sampler is the perfect sampling solution for you. The M&W Bucket Sampler is designed to make your sampling process quick, efficient, and hassle-free.
Variant 1 (standard): The Bucket Sampler Chain (BS-C) is delivered with a robust chain system. So, whether you are a farmer, a food processor, or a quality control specialist, our BS-C is the perfect tool for your sampling needs.
Variant 2: The Bucket Sampler Wire (BS-W) is delivered with a robust wire system. The BS-W is preferable for materials containing large amounts of dust or fine particles. The BS-W is well suited for biomass, limestone powders etc.

The BS has a bucket cutter connected to two parallel drivers (chain/wire), moving at a speed of up to 0.6 m/s. The sampler runs the cutter twice through the falling material, after which the sample is emptied through the outlet. Between sampling operations, the bucket is parked above the bottom outlet. An inspection hatch is placed on top of the sampler to facilitate maintenance and replacement of spare parts.
The BS is delivered with either a local control unit or/and is controlled by a M&W central control cabinet depending on concept and preference. The M&W central control cabinet consist of motor control center, circuit breakers, PLC-system and man-machine interface.
Options
1. The M&W central control cabinet can exchange signals with the client’s control system.
2. It is possible to attach more than one sample bucket. For example, with two buckets the number of increments can be doubled within the same time interval.
Nota Bene 1
The BS can be calibrated with respect to the client’s material(s) and local sampling conditions. M&W offers clients a facility for quantitative assessment the performance of the cross-belt sampler on the client’s own material(s), following one or several types of analyses such as variographic or replicate analyses.
