The Benefits of the spiral conveyor system
Intralox’s DDS has a major advantage over failure-prone tension-driven, stainless steel belts by relying on a patented operating system that engages the belt edge directly with the drum to generate zero slip and significantly reduce belt tension. No drum-belt edge friction means reduced tension and simple, reliable performance.
Maintenance and cleaning expenses are significantly decreased and production time maximised. The DDS can also improve product orientation and maximise load-carrying capacity on any given conveyor and has the further advantage of simplifying Spiral operating controls. Simply put, Spiral conveyors using the patented DirectDrive System technology receive dramatic benefits.
