Vertical and Horizontal Transport
Vertical and horizontal transportation are the two fundamental methods used for moving materials and products within industrial facilities or storage areas. Vertical transportation refers to the movement of materials or products in the vertical direction. It is typically accomplished using equipment such as conveyor systems, elevators, cranes, or forklifts. Vertical transportation is commonly used to meet material storage or transport requirements in confined spaces.
Horizontal transportation, on the other hand, refers to the movement of materials or products in the horizontal plane. This is achieved using systems such as conveyor belts, pallet carriers, transport carts, and similar equipment. Horizontal transportation is used to move products to different processes within a facility, organize materials in storage areas, or transport products.
Both transportation methods are essential in many sectors, including industrial production, logistics, storage, and materials management. The proper selection of a transportation system can enhance efficiency and optimize business processes.
Vertical and horizontal conveying equipment types:
Vertical Transport
Vertical transport enables the movement of products or raw materials in an upward or downward direction. It is commonly used in confined spaces to lift materials or lower them from a height. Oresis' vertical transport systems are designed with high capacity and safe operation features. • Screw Conveyors: Used for transporting powders, granules, or small-sized materials. They move materials from a horizontal position to a vertical one using a rotating screw mechanism. These systems are widely preferred in the food, chemical, agricultural, and mining industries. Enclosed pipe systems prevent material loss and enable hygienic transport. • Bucket Elevators: One of the most commonly used vertical transport systems. Bucket elevators operate with a system where buckets rotate along a belt or chain, ensuring efficient material handling. They are widely utilized in industries such as cement and gypsum production.
Horizontal Transport
Horizontal transport systems enable the movement of materials along a horizontal plane. These systems are used in production lines and storage areas to transfer materials between different points. Oresis' horizontal transport systems stand out with their high capacity and durable structure. • Belt Conveyors: One of the most widely used horizontal transport systems. They ensure the safe movement of products from one end to the other. Belt conveyors prevent product damage and enable continuous flow in production lines. They are used in industries such as food, packaging, mining, and heavy industry. • Z-Belt Conveyors: A flexible system capable of both vertical and horizontal transport. It is particularly used when materials need to be transported between machines positioned at different levels within production lines. Z-belt conveyors optimize space usage while ensuring damage-free transport, making them an excellent solution for complex production lines.
Advantages of Vertical and Horizontal Transport
• Oresis' vertical and horizontal transport systems enhance efficiency in production lines. The fast and safe movement of materials accelerates business processes and prevents production interruptions. • Both vertical and horizontal transport systems have a wide range of applications in various industries, including food, construction, chemicals, agriculture, and mining. They can be adapted to meet specific facility requirements. • Vertical transport systems provide high efficiency in confined spaces. Particularly in facilities with limited storage areas, they enable compact material handling. • Oresis' transport systems are made from durable materials, ensuring long-lasting performance even in challenging industrial conditions. These systems reduce maintenance costs and provide a reliable solution for businesses. • Oresis transport systems are designed in compliance with the highest safety standards. They include safety features to protect operators and materials, preventing workplace accidents and ensuring smooth production processes.
