Two designs, one principle. Which one fits depends on particle size, throughput and the bend radius your route requires.
Two designs
Both spiral conveyors work without a centre shaft. The choice follows from particle size, throughput and the bend radius your route requires.
Type RL(N)
The rugged one
Rigid shaftless conveying spirals in steel or stainless steel for large volumes and bulky material. Built as a tube or trough conveyor.
Type SL(N) / KL(N)
The adaptable one
Flexible spirals in tube systems of steel, stainless steel or plastic. For powders, granulates, dusts and pellets — including awkward routes.
The full type ranges with lengths, throughputs and motor ratings are on the product pages.

Type RL(N) — rigid
Type SL(N) — flexible
Both designs are screw conveyors without a centre shaft. We call them spiral conveyors just as readily: conveying happens through the spiral itself, not around a shaft that material could wrap around.
Choose rigid (Type RL) when large volumes are moved or the material is bulky: Type RL handles item lengths up to approx. 400 mm. The rigid design is also built for high duty cycles of up to 8,700 hours a year.
Choose flexible (Type SL or KL) when the route is long and awkward, the material fine to medium-grained — up to approx. 45 mm particle size — and the quantity manageable. Tube bends allow conveying routes that a rigid system would need several sections and transfer points for.
Just the component? We hold more than 150 rigid conveying spirals in different sizes in stock — see components.
If you are unsure: describe the task to us. Making the choice is our job, not yours.
