Cooling or Dry Spiral Elevator

Vertical conveying with product cooling or surface drying

We design and manufacture bespoke vibratory spiral elevators that combine vertical product transfer with cooling or surface drying. The thermal system is selected around your material, throughput, inlet temperature, required discharge conditions and available services.

Depending on the duty, cooling can use a jacketed conveying surface, a specified air supply or a combined arrangement. Drying is a separate requirement: we establish the moisture target, air conditions and available residence time before agreeing performance. Our small engineering team works with you on the layout and maintenance access, with 3D and 2D design approval before manufacture.

Key Features

Bespoke conveying geometry: Height, diameter, usable conveying width and connections selected for the material and layout.


Cooling arrangement: Jacketed surfaces, air cooling or a combined system assessed against the required thermal duty.


Surface-drying provision: Air conditions, product moisture and residence time considered separately from cooling.


Matched drive and suspension: Motor selection and supports considered with the moving mass and material load.


Construction and access: Materials, covers and cleaning provisions specified for the operating environment.


System integration: Inlet, discharge, utilities and control interfaces reviewed before manufacture.

Industry Applications

Food processing: Cooling suitable snacks, cereals or roasted products during transfer, with hygiene and handling requirements specified for the product.


Plastics and chemicals: Cooling suitable pellets, granules and resin products before downstream handling or packing.


Recycling: Cooling reprocessed granulate or assessing surface-drying duties for washed material.


Metals and foundry: Thermal conditioning of suitable components where part size, temperature and contact conditions allow.


Pharmaceutical applications: Project-specific assessment of suitable materials, containment, cleaning and qualification requirements before agreeing supply.

We Solve Your Processing Problems

Hot or damp material can create problems at the next process stage. We begin with the condition your product needs to reach, rather than adding cooling equipment to a standard conveyor and assuming it will achieve the required result.


Product sticking or clumping: We assess temperature, moisture, bed depth and feed consistency before selecting the conveying and thermal arrangement.


Limited floor space: Combining elevation with thermal treatment can reduce separate transfer stages, while retaining the conveying area and maintenance access the duty needs.


Uncertain discharge conditions: Throughput, cooling-medium conditions and residence time are agreed together. Cooling does not automatically dry a product, and a specified outlet temperature is tied to agreed operating conditions.

How it Works

Controlled infeed: Material enters at the agreed connection and feed rate. An even feed helps maintain a consistent material depth on the conveying path.


Vibratory conveying: The drive moves material along the helical path between the specified inlet and discharge levels. Direction of travel is established by the agreed machine configuration.


Thermal treatment: Heat is removed through the specified jacket, air arrangement or combination. Where surface drying is required, the air supply and moisture-removal duty are assessed separately.


Discharge: Product transfers to the next process at the agreed elevation. Acceptance criteria relate output temperature or moisture to throughput, inlet conditions and available cooling services.
