vertical conveyor technology
Since September 1996, when the first S-shaped POCKETLIFT® Conveyor was installed for muck hoisting in a vertical shaft at a New York City Tunnel Project, the system has proved itself in many other projects, mainly in the coal and gypsum underground mining industry.
Due to its outstanding features, the POCKETLIFT® has many advantages in comparison with the traditional skip or cage systems for hoisting heights up to 800 m.
