PBE Vibrating spiral elevator's design moves hot material vertically while preventing clumping Vibrating spiral elevator vertically transfers hot material that would oth- erwise clump easily when static in the process line. Elevator has a twin- motor design that easily moves material up the almost 30-foot height while vibrations ensure there are no clumping issues during cooling. Elevator is fabricated from Type 304 stainless steel and uses top-mounted isolation springs and a floor-level stabilizing spring to reduce vibrations for the surrounding structure.
