Conveys and Lifts Materials Vertically
The GEA Scan-Vibro Spiral Elevator is a robust vibratory solution tailored for the food, pharmaceutical, and chemical industries. Its unique design conveys materials in a spiral path, offering gentle and effective vertical transport of solids, powders, and granules. This equipment excels in handling dry, wet, warm, greasy, and frozen products, integrating cooling or heating as needed. With spiral diameters ranging from 750 to 1500 mm and lifting heights from 500 to 7000 mm, it addresses diverse operational requirements. Made of stainless steel AISI 304 or 316, it ensures high sanitary standards and corrosion resistance, suitable for continuous operation with negligible maintenance due to its lubrication-free design. The system supports integrated PLC control for seamless production line integration, available with dust covers and customizable support columns to eliminate external frameworks. Meeting current environmental standards, it reduces noise, dust, and odors, making it an eco-friendly choice for processing applications such as conveying, lifting, and simultaneous material treatment.
