Podmores supplies spiral elevators and a bespoke depositing & coating system to abrasive companies in the business of sanding blocks, sanding pads, cutting and sanding discs, bonded abrasives, among others.

The bespoke system includes a spiral elevator that feeds grit onto an abrasive product and two linear conveyors that screen and recycle the excess grit. The excess grit is then conveyed to the spiral elevator ready to deposit grit onto the next batch of products being manufactured. The controlled deposit rate gives an even coating to the product. Podmores has supplied several solutions and equipment to handle grit to the abrasive industry for over 30 years.

Steven Evans, Spiral Elevators Technician for Podmores said: “We are delighted to hear that our customers are pleased with the spiral elevators we supply. Podmores spiral elevators are great value for money as they elevate vertically and use a small factory footprint. We have a wealth of experience in manufacturing spiral elevators. This gives us the confidence and ability to build different shapes and sizes of spiral elevators to best suit the different applications on our customer’s production lines.”

This bespoke system was specially designed for this application but similar systems can also be developed to handle products for the following industries: aerospace, automotive, chemicals, cosmetics, electronics, food & beverage, medical & biotech, military, mining, packaging, pharmaceutical, plastics & recycling.
