At Spiral Elevators Ltd, we don’t just follow industry trends we set them. We proudly developed the world’s first Recirculation Spiral Elevator, giving manufacturers a powerful way to recycle, reprocess, and recover products directly within their production line.
This breakthrough system allows you to divert material flow, elevate it back into the process, and re-feed it without manual handling or extra transfer equipment. Whether you need to recover product from quality checks, reintroduce off-spec batches, or maintain a continuous closed-loop production system we’ve engineered the ultimate solution.
Industry Applications
Food & Beverage – Cooling roasted coffee beans, separating flour, sugar, grains, spices
Pharmaceutical – Screening and cooling powders, granules, and tablet components
Chemicals & Plastics – Cooling resins, pellets, and powder blends before packaging
Metals & Foundry – Cooling castings, removing fines from sand, separating scrap
Recycling & Waste Management – Sorting dry or cooled recyclables for reuse
We Solve Your Processing Problems
Reduced Waste – Recover and reprocess product instead of discarding it.
Increased Efficiency – No downtime for manual recycling operations.
Lower Costs – Save on raw materials, labour, and extra equipment.
Better Quality Control – Remove off-spec batches without halting production.
Faster Changeovers – Switch between recycling and standard discharge instantly.
Eco-Friendly Operation – Reduce waste output and environmental impact.

How it Works
Product Entry
Material enters the Recirculation Spiral Elevator from a conveyor or process outlet.
Flow Control
Motorised diverters decide whether to send product forward or back into the process.
Vibration Transport
Heavy-duty vibrator motors lift the product up the spiral track.
Recirculation Feed
Recovered product is discharged at a higher point back into upstream machinery for reprocessing.
Forward Processing Option
When recycling is not required, the system sends the product forward for normal discharge.
This system can be integrated with cooling, drying, or screening functions, giving you a multi-purpose, fully automated material handling solution.
Key Features
Recirculation Capability – Diverts product from any point and reintroduces it upstream.
Automated Flow Control – Motorised gates or diverters manage the flow without manual intervention.
Closed-Loop System – Maintains product integrity by reducing handling and exposure.
Multi-Directional Feeding – Option to send product forward, recycle it, or discharge it as needed.
Custom Build – Designed to fit into your existing line layout and process requirements.
High-Capacity Throughput – Handles large volumes without clogging or slowdowns.
Space-Efficient Design – Eliminates the need for separate lifting and conveying systems.
Durable & Hygienic Construction – Stainless steel options for food, pharma, and hygiene-critical industries.
