Equipment Options & Accessories

Heating & Cooling

Holes can be incorporated into the tower to force air out and across the material. Air can be blown down onto the material from the hollow flight stiffeners on larger spiral units.

Flights

Jacketed flights are manufactured using heavy, pre-formed dimple plate and are plug welded to the center tower. They provide indirect heat transfer with steam, oil, or water.

Size & Capacity

Available in diameters in excess of 11 feet and heights in excess of 60 feet with light to heavy-duty, high-capacity and high-temperature designs available.

Materials of Construction

Material contact surfaces can be fabricated from mild steel, stainless steel, or other metal alloys with non-stick coatings to reduce the likelihood of buildup. Sanitary construction for USDA/3A requirements is also available.

Drive Unit Design

Available in brute force or natural frequency design. Material can be conveyed aggressively or in a gentle, harmonic motion.

Enclosures, Access Doors & Inspection Windows

Stationary or vibrating enclosures protect the unit and the materials from the environment and provide additional employee safety. Shrouds are available to protect the drive unit. Custom inspection windows can be incorporated for access to the spiral trough and material.

V-Trough Conveyor Design

Carrier’s V-Trough design aids in conveying sticky materials that have a difficult time conveying up an incline.

Applications

Catalyseurs

Catalyst applications involve the handling and processing of powdered, granular, or pelletized materials used to accelerate chemical reactions in industries such as petrochemical, refining, and chemical manufacturing.

Cement & SCMs

Because SCMs and cement powders often require tight, vertical plant layouts, these elevators lift materials while occupying a minimal horizontal floor space and provide thermal conditioning.

Alimentation et produits laitiers

Spiral Elevators are available in sanitary designs for food and dairy processing and handling of raw ingredients and finished products. Elevate and convey powders, granules, flakes, and particulates used in food and beverage production.

Fonderie

Foundry applications involve the handling and processing of materials used in metal casting, including sand, molds, cores, and metal scrap.

Lithium & Critical Minerals

Transport bulk lithium and critical mineral products vertically within a tight plant footprint. Our spiral elevators can be equipped with jackets to dry and cool materials, all with gentle vibratory motion.

Produits pharmaceutiques

Sanitary pharmaceutical designs are available for applications involving the processing and handling of powders, granules, and active ingredients used in the manufacture of medications, supplements, and other healthcare products.

Boulettes de plastique

Plastic pellet applications involve the handling and processing of polymer granules used in the production of molded, extruded, or fabricated plastic products.

Polymers

Polymer applications involve the processing and handling of synthetic and bio-based polymers in granular, powdered, or flake form for use in plastics, coatings, adhesives, and specialty chemical products.

Caoutchouc et miettes de caoutchouc

Rubber and crumb rubber applications involve the handling and processing of natural or synthetic rubber, including recycled crumb rubber, for use in tires, mats, molded products, and industrial components.

Featured Resources

A chemical company contacted Carrier Vibrating Equipment with a need to transport an extremely high temperature chemical catalyst immediately after it had been processed in a rotary calciner. With the extremely high-temperature product, the customer needed a solution that would safely and efficiently move the catalyst.

Vibrating Spiral Elevators FAQs

When is a spiral elevator preferred over a traditional bucket elevator?

Spiral elevators provide gentle vertical conveyance of bulk materials without buckets, reducing material breakage and maintenance complexity.

Can spiral elevators handle hot or sticky materials?

Yes. They are designed for a range of materials, including high-temperature feedstocks or materials with slight cohesiveness, while maintaining smooth flow.

How does vibration assist in vertical lift applications?

Vibration helps disengage particles and encourages upward movement without relying on high-friction surfaces, improving reliability and reducing clogging.

Are spiral elevators space-efficient?

Yes. Their vertical footprint allows for tight plant layouts where horizontal space is limited.

What typical maintenance can be expected?

Maintenance focuses on bearings, wear liners, and the drive assembly, with maintenance minimized by the simplicity of the vibration-driven design.
