The Spiral Elevator is a proven JVI product for the vertical conveyance of dry bulk material. The Spiral Elevator has a very light conveying motion that handles the product gently to virtually eliminate product degredation. The helical pattern of the Spiral Elevators trough creates a long conveying path with high retention time that makes it ideal for cooling, heating or drying processes in a small workspace. Using the Spiral Elevator, a product can be coveyed vertically- either up or downThe JVI Spiral Elevator is commonly used in industries where grains, powders, sands, pellets or similar types of material need to be thermally treated or vertically conveyed. The JVI Spiral Elevator is a better choice for the application than a bucket elevators when there is a limited amount of space for new equipment.

The JVI Spiral Elevator is a better choice for the application than a bucket elevators when there is a limited amount of space for new equipment.
Industries that use the Spiral Elevator:
- Chemical, Fertilizer, Feed, Plastic, Food and bakery, Pharmaceutical, Ceramics, Textiles, etc.
Thermal Treatment Options : |
- Direct: Air cooling is accomplished by a vent on top of the elevator through which cooled air travels into the center tube of the elevator. The vertical center tube has holes on each level. The cooled air is blown out of the holes and across the moving material.
|
- Indirect: Water heating, drying or cooling is accomplished via a laser-welded double floor that is filled with water. The water is the transfer medium used to heated or cool material as it is conveyed. Oil heating can also be accomplished in the same way. A thin layer of material on the conveyor bed works best with this method, and agitation during conveying enhances the thermal transfer process.

- Heights from 3-25 feet are possible
