Almost like magic, your material or product enters the Olds Elevator™ Vertical Bulk Material Conveyor*
and seconds later exits the top clean and intact – without
generating dust, without noisy buckets or compressors!
You can elevate any size granular material, as well as most
powders, slurries or viscous liquids!
It’s a totally enclosed
system, so your material is protected from machine grease
and contamination. You’re free to position the intake anywhere you
want it, as low as you want it.
The Olds Elevator™ utilizes
a rotating casing around a fixed screw. Intake scoops at
the bottom of the casing feed material into the elevator
where it quietly climbs the static screw.
And that’s just the start,
because the Olds Elevator™ Vertical Conveyor brings process
and economic benefits never before seen in the bulk materials
handling equipment market.
Use as a Combination
Elevator/Volumetric Feeder
The Olds Elevator™ discharges
a smooth, steady flow of product at any speed. Whether the
flow rate is 5 lbs. per minute or 500 lbs. per minute the Olds Elevator™ delivers at
a constant rate, without the pulsating discharge common to
screw feeders. Variable speed motors and controllers allow
the Olds Elevator™ to serve as
an ideal volumetric feeder. Feed
rate accuracy can be controlled to within 1%-3% for most
materials. The RPM of the casing dictates the flow rate of
the elevator. Eliminate overhead storage hoppers and volumetric
screw feeders. Let the Olds Elevator™ feed your process.
Cost savings hit
your bottom line
It’s energy efficient. It requires
no complicated feed system.
Space utilization is more cost-effective, because it takes
less than 10 sq. ft. of floor space – a tiny fraction
of the area required for conventional conveyor systems.
There’s good reason to believe
the Olds Elevator™ Vertical Conveyor can save you 25
to 50% or even more in
purchase, installation, operation and maintenance costs.
