Space-Saving Side Drive Spiral Conveyor System

The Side Drive Spiral Conveyor revolutionizes vertical conveying by eliminating the need for a traditional large central drum. Unlike cage-style spirals, this system utilizes a unique side-drive mechanism that engages the edge of the modular belt, allowing for a more open, accessible, and sanitary structure.

Engineered for flexibility, the system can handle elevations up to 10 meters with customizable tier spacing. Its simplified design requires only a single drive motor, significantly reducing energy consumption and maintenance complexity compared to traditional drum spirals. Whether you are cooling baked goods or elevating packaged cartons, this conveyor delivers smooth, continuous flow with a lower total cost of ownership.

Key Features

Space-Saving Design: Maximizes vertical space utilization with a compact footprint, ideal for facilities with limited floor space.
