Spiral-Lift Advantages:

  • Saves floor space in restricted areas 
  • Continuous product flow
  • Handles a wide range of package sizes and types
  • Proven positive drive (no drive roll slip)
  • Flexible design

Saves Floor Space
The Spiral-Lift utilizes a spiral design that requires only a fraction of the space needed by conventional conveyors to accomplish similar elevation differentials.

Continuous Product Flow
A continuous spiral belt conveyor system does not need expensive staging or synchronization equipment to keep the product flowing smoothly.

Wide Range of Products
The Spiral-Lift is designed to continuously convey both large and small products vertically without jamming, sliding or tumbling. Cartons, bags, drums or even many types of unpackaged products can easily be conveyed without the problems associated with other vertical lifting systems.

Positive Chain Drive
The belt on a Spiral-Lift is positively driven by a shaft mounted sprocket engaging a precision sidebow chain which is attached directly to the belt. This positive drive arrangement is unaffected by changes in loading, tension, temperature or humidity. Unlike friction drive conveyors, there is no drive roll slip caused by foreign material getting between the belt and the drive roll or by heavy loads. Rugged reliability means that the conveyor keeps operating in changing conditions without the frequent adjustments required on friction drive spiral conveyors.

Flexible Design
Every Spiral-Lift conveyor is custom designed for your particular requirements. Some of the many customized features are as follows:

  • Belt widths
  • Centerlines
  • Angles of incline/decline
  • Belt material
  • Cold temperature operation
  • Stainless steel construction (USDA approved design)
  • Clockwise/counter-clockwise travel
  • Floor mount/ceiling mount
  • Entry/exit combinations
  • Paint colors

With over 40 years of building curved and spiral belt conveyors, no company has more experience building spiral belt conveyors for special applications.
