Spiral conveyors increase available production floor space

Transport products vertically with the perfect balance of height and footprint

Spiral conveyors lift your line to a new level

Spiral elevators from FlexLink are our compact and adaptable conveyor solutions for up or down elevation. They ensure a continuous product flow while lifting is as reliable and straightforward as horizontal conveying.

Elevating product handling

The purpose of the spiral elevator conveyor is to transport products vertically, bridging a difference of height. The spiral conveyor can lift the line to create space on the production floor or function as a buffer zone. The spiral-shaped conveyor is the key to its uniquely compact construction that saves valuable floor space.

Our spiral elevating solutions work perfectly in filling and packing lines. Possible applications of spiral elevators range from handling individual parcels or totes to items such as shrink-wrapped bottle packs or cartons.
