By Spiral-Team Ryson No Comments »

The Ryson Bucket Elevators combine vertical and horizontal transportation of bulk material in a single unit. The modular design and rugged construction make them suitable for a wide variety of applications in many industries.

Ryson Bucket Elevator

This week we are shop testing a stainless steel Bucket Elevator which will be used in a product waste recovery operation at a large metal and powder manufacturer in the Northeast. This bucket elevator has one inlet and one outlet and will be handling up to 1,000 lbs per hour of crushed glass and metal powder with a bulk density of up to 60 PCF.

The Ryson Bucket Elevators are designed for heavy-duty operations and long life. They are fully enclosed with tipping buckets and can have multiple in and outlets. The buckets are overlapping at the inlets to prevent spillage and can be tipped selectively at the outlets.

The Ryson Bucket Elevators are designed for gentle product handling and the proprietary modular design offers a wide range of configurations, making the bucket elevator easy to customize and install. If you would like additional information on the Ryson Bucket Elevator, please visit our Bucket Elevator Page on www.ryson.com, or you can download our Product Spec Sheet.

Ryson Spiral Conveyor Crew

Project team from Mori in front of a shiny new spiral in Argentina

Ryson recently shipped a spiral conveyor to a major consumer products manufacturer in Buenos Aires Argentina. The spiral lift is part of new aerosol bottle filling and packaging line. The vertical spiral conveyor is located after the case packer and provides vertical transportation of the products to a mezzanine conveyor which feeds a high-level palletizer.

The System integrator on this project was Mori & Asociados, SRL. They are a new integrator with Ryson and specialize in conveyor systems. The spiral was shipped in one piece, pre-assembled and pre-tested, drastically reducing the time and cost of installation.

The South American market is starting to recognize the many benefits of Ryson’s vertical conveying solutions and we are gearing up to service this growing market. Ryson spiral conveyors need less floor space than conventional conveyors and are faster and more reliable than any elevator or lift. All Ryson products are designed for low maintenance and long life and our proprietary modular construction makes future reconfiguring cost effective. That is a huge advantage in any competitive market.

Ryson Booth at NA2010

The North American Material Handling and Logistics show was a great showing for Ryson. We had a pime booth location, right at the entrance and generated a lot of buzz even before the attendees were allowed to enter in the mornings. Counltess times “are you giving rides on your spiral” was heard, but it was hard for someone not to notice our large red high capacity spiral running as you passed bye.

The show was also a great opportunity for Ryson to reach out to our integrators and customers. Existing customers and prospects alike got a first hand demonstration of our latest innovations and models. The trade shows are one of the best ways to connect with our customers, and reaffirm that Ryson Spirals are on the cutting edge of vertical transportation.

It is also flattering when an existing customer, comes up to us just to thank us for a job well done.

If we didn’t see you in Cleveland, hope to see you at the next show.
