Screw Log Elevator

Pinnacle SA’s Screw Log Elevators offer a reliable and efficient solution for material handling in sawmills, lumber yards, and biomass energy plants. Built to withstand the demanding conditions of these environments, our Screw Log Elevators ensure durable and reliable performance.

For specialised vertical transport, the Pinnacle SA Screw Log Elevator is an essential tool for modern sawmill operations. This system is expertly designed to align, unscramble, and elevate logs from the log deck to the next machine in the sawmill, contributing to increased productivity and optimal use of space.

How it Works:
The Screw Log Elevator uses a rotating screw or auger within a cylindrical housing. Logs are fed into the bottom and are pushed upward by the rotating screw, allowing them to be transported to higher levels or different areas within the facility.

Key Features & Benefits:

Customizable Design: Our Screw Log Elevators can be tailored to your specific needs, including length, width, and material handling capacity.
Robust Construction: Built with durable materials like steel and cast iron to ensure long-lasting performance and withstand the weight and abrasive nature of logs.
Variable Speed Control: Adjustable speed settings allow for precise control of material flow.
Efficient Material Handling: Both systems provide a reliable and efficient way to transport materials, reducing the need for manual labour and saving you time and money.
Space-Saving: By transporting logs vertically, our screw log elevators help optimise the use of space within a sawmill.
Versatility: These systems can be used to transport a wide range of materials, including sawdust, wood chips, finished lumber, and logs.
