Spiral conveyor

The spiral conveyor is a conveyor system for bulk goods . It is a modification of the screw conveyor , but differs from it by the lack of a screw shaft in the middle. The Spiral Elevators have been in use since the mid-1970s. They can be used to convey bulk goods with different grain sizes . They are also suitable for lumpy, long-fiber and sticky bulk goods.

The most important area of application is waste disposal and recycling .
