MODEX 2026 is almost here, and Ryson is preparing to showcase solutions that transform vertical conveying in modern warehouses and distribution centers. Next month in Atlanta, supply chain professionals will gather to explore the newest technologies shaping intralogistics. If you plan to attend, make sure Ryson is on your booth visit list.
Better yet, Ryson can provide complimentary registration to MODEX 2026. Contact our team to receive your FREE pass and experience the show firsthand.
Why MODEX Matters for Warehousing and Logistics
MODEX brings together leaders in automation, material handling, and supply chain technology. For warehouse operators and system integrators, the event offers a rare opportunity to evaluate solutions that improve throughput, reliability, and space utilization.
Vertical conveying remains a critical part of modern facility design. Distribution centers continue to build upward, not outward. As a result, companies need equipment that moves product efficiently between levels without sacrificing valuable floor space.
That is where Ryson comes in.
See the Ryson Demo Loop Running Live
At our booth, visitors can experience our fully operational demo loop, designed to illustrate the real-world performance of Ryson Spiral Conveyors in automated environments. The demo highlights multi-tier high-capacity conveying, smooth product transfers, and controlled product orientation during diversion.
For example, our High Capacity Spirals feature overlapping slats and a heavy-duty chain that can handle up to 75 pounds per linear foot and 3,600 pounds fully loaded, while achieving speeds up to 200 feet per minute.
You will also see several design features that improve system reliability and product handling:
-
MDR induction conveyors with friction-coated rollers ensure smooth product transfers into the spiral.
-
Powered divert arms and low-friction divert conveyors maintain product orientation during discharge.
These elements demonstrate how Ryson integrates Spiral Conveyors into larger multi-level warehouse automation systems.
Built for Real Distribution Environments
The demo loop also showcases several engineering advantages that matter in daily operations.
Ryson Spiral Conveyors feature modular construction, which simplifies customization and makes field modifications easier during installation or expansion. The systems also deliver high uptime, energy efficiency, and long operational life.
These capabilities make Ryson equipment a strong fit for:
-
E-commerce fulfillment centers
-
3PL distribution operations
-
high-speed sortation systems
-
cold storage environments
Because the design uses rolling friction instead of sliding contact, the equipment handles heavy loads while reducing wear and maintenance demands.
Meet the Ryson Team at MODEX
MODEX also provides an opportunity to talk directly with the Ryson team. Our engineers and application specialists will be available to discuss facility layouts, retrofit opportunities, and vertical conveying strategies for complex warehouse environments. Also present will be members from our service team, to answer any installation, integration and maintenance issues for you.
Whether you are planning a new facility or optimizing an existing operation, a conversation with our team can help uncover new ways to improve throughput and system reliability.
