Spiral Conveyors

I am interested in modeling spiral conveyors to transfer items between floors. Any recommendations on how to go about doing this operation?

There is no special trick to it. Add a curved conveyor, set the start and end height (Z-coordinate) to the desired values and change the "Sweep Angle" to how ever many rotations you would like the spiral to have (360° per rotation). If that's what you mean by "spiral conveyor".
