The Ryson unit load spiral conveyor, also known as the case spiral, needs far less floor space than conventional conveyors and are faster and more reliable than any elevator or lift. Frequently used at the end of line, where packaged products are transported from production to palletizing and distribution, they convey cartons, cases, trays, totes and all sorts of packaged goods up or down in a continuous flow. The proprietary slat-style belts, central to the design of the conveyor, enables a low rolling friction operation without any sliding movements or wear strips on the spiral conveyor. Occupying a small footprint, saving space and increasing throughput, the unit load spiral conveyor's diameter is determined by the size of the load to be handled.
Its innovative modular made-to-order design allows Ryson to customize with ease and modify in the field to accommodate emerging needs. All four unit load spiral configurations accommodate most requirements relating to the location of the in and out feed tangents and operate up or down in a clockwise or counterclockwise rotation, and can be customized to meet specific layout requirements. With a broad range of size options, high speeds, low noise, and low maintenance, the case spiral conveyor is ideal for use in manufacturing, packaging, bottling, order picking, distribution, and warehousing operations.
