Tanis Z Type Elevator: Precise and Compact Product Transportation Solution
Efficient Horizontal–Vertical–Horizontal Transportation
In agriculture, seed processing, and granular product lines, products often need both horizontal and vertical transport. Traditional conveyors may lack the flexibility for such complex movements.
The Tanis Z Type Elevator combines horizontal–vertical–horizontal transport in a single system, offering compact installation, gentle handling, and high-precision conveying.
