Vibrating spiral elevator - Vertical conveying

AViTEQ-Vibrating spiral elevator are used wherever bulk solids have to be conveyed in a vertical direction. These robust spiral elevators are suitable for conveying a host of bulk solids from various production processes. These can be fine to coarse-grained, as well as fragmentary bulk solids. Our spiral elevators are used in the chemical, pharmaceutical and food industries, and also in the raw material industry. The use of additional fixtures enables products to be treated by thermal (cooling/heating) or technical (drying) processes. The bulk solids can be transported both upwards or downwards.

Advantages & benefits

Energy and space-saving vertical conveying that's gentle on the material
Low-maintenance continuous operation
Easy-to-clean, hygienic design
Natural cooling of the bulk solid during the conveying process thanks to long dwell times
Bulk solids cooled either directly by air or indirectly by water through the use of double bottom or laser-welded Thermplate® bottoms as the spirals
Bulk solids heated/dried either directly by air radiators or indirectly by water or thermal oil through the use of double bottoms or laser-welded Thermplate® bottoms as the spiral

Construction

The main components are:

Spiral top from standard stainless steel or special purpose steel with single or double bottoms
The infeed plate and spiral are available as reinforced, plastic-injected versions upon request.
Extremely heat-resistant version (conveyed material temperature up to approx. 900°C) possible upon request
Drive gear with unbalanced motors (the spiral conveyor can be executed with the drives at the top or bottom, depending on the requirement)
Stationary or mobile version
Open or closed version (closed version with resonant cover or stationary housing)

Selection

The dimensioning of the spiral elevator depends on:
