Spiral Elevators for Plastic Recycling

Compact, efficient vertical conveying — with added processing benefits.

Rotajet’s Spiral Elevators are designed to vertically convey plastic granulate in a compact footprint, making them ideal for space-limited facilities. Compared to traditional belt or screw systems, our elevators offer a cleaner, quieter, and more energy-efficient alternative.

How It Works

Powered by twin unbalanced motors, the elevator produces a smooth, oscillating vibration. This harmonic motion gently “throws” the material upwards along a helical track, without causing degradation — even with delicate plastic materials.

The extended travel path not only enables vertical transport but also adds valuable dwell time. This makes spiral elevators perfect for:

  • Cooling hot material using ambient air or integrated water jackets
  • Thermal drying in a controlled environment
  • Dewatering plastic flakes or granules before the next processing stage
