This article presents information on the newly introduced hydraulics material lifting equipment, named "Spirallift," developed by Paco Corp. A vertical band of steel inserted between rising layers of a flat steel spiral forms the basis for so-claimed heavy-duty, compact lifting device. Driven by a cylindrical rotor, a sloped set of support wheels lifts successive layers of the horizontal spiral. As the spiral is lifted, the vertical band uncoils into the spirals central groove. Continuous formation of the I-shaped cross-section builds the spiral into a virtually solid column. Driving the rotor in the opposite direction reverses the procedure. "Spiralift" is claimed less expensive than hydraulic units of equal capacity, and provides a more uniform load capability than scissors lifts.
