Ryson Dual Track Spiral Conveyor

Final tests and tweaks are made to a dual spiral prior to shipping from our Yorktown, VA plant.

We’re completing final shop testing of another dual track spiral conveyor. When installed, this spiral will have both lanes declining two different product lines to a floor-level robotic palletizer. Knowing the products were going to be conveyed side by side, the integrator decided to save as much floor space as they could by using a Ryson Dual Track Spiral Conveyor instead of two single lane spirals. This spiral will ship from our manufacturing facility in Yorktown, VA fully assembled, reducing implementation costs.

The two tracks of the Ryson Dual Spiral operate independently within one spiral structure. Both tracks can convey up or down, and can optionally be reversible. Only one drive motor is required for each track, resulting in big savings in energy, controls and systems integration. Models with dual 8”, 12”, 16” or 20” wide slats are available. Some site assembly is required for models with 16” and 20” wide slats. Click here to download a Ryson Dual Spiral Conveyor Brochure, or read more about them on ryson.com.

The system builder is Integrated Solutions in Memphis, TN and the customer is a major consumer products manufacturer.

High Capacity Spiral Conveyor from Ryson

High Capacity Spiral in a Packaging Line

Since their induction close to two years ago, the Ryson High Capacity Spiral Conveyor has taken off. Once the benefits of our heavy hitter were realized, their demand has increased dramatically. The high capacity spiral conveyor came about primarily because our customers needed to move heavier loads and go higher.  The 1 inch chain that moves the slats is  heavy duty, allowing for a capacity of 75 lbs. per linear foot of conveyor for speeds up to 200 FPM. The total weight capacity in the spiral at any one time is 3600 lbs.

Only one drive motor is required, resulting in substantial savings in energy, controls and system integration. Ryson Spirals are designed for low maintenance and long life. An innovative modular design allows Ryson to customize with ease and modify in the field to accommodate emerging needs. Download the Ryson High Capacity Spiral Conveyor Spec Sheet here.
