   Conveyors are used when material is to be moved frequently between specific points over a fixed path and when there is a sufficient flow volume to justify the fixed conveyor investment. [4] Different types of conveyors can be characterized by the type of product being handled: unit load or bulk load ; the conveyor's location: in-floor , on ...

5. Conveyor system - Wikipedia

   Like vertical conveyors, spiral conveyors raise and lower materials to different levels of a facility. In contrast, spiral conveyors are able to transport material loads in a continuous flow. A helical spiral or screw rotates within a sealed tube and the speed makes the product in the conveyor rotate with the screw.
