Vertical conveyors are mainly used when nests are arranged in an offset layout, for example with Big Dutchman’s NATURA Nova aviaries, when there is little space between the nests and the cross collection system, or when obstacles need to be circumvented.
They operate at ascending or descending gradients of 50° and are available in two widths: 350 mm and 500 mm. Vertical conveyors are powered by a separate drive unit for a more flexible collection speed. Big Dutchman recommends frequency-regulating the longitudinal egg belts (optional).
