Mechanical conveyors for powder transport
Optimize your powder and granule handling with precise, customizable conveying solutions that ensure gentle transport and hygienic processing, minimizing material degradation and contamination risks.
Transports and Discharges Fragile and Abrasive Powders
Powder Process-Solutions’ Volumetric Screw Feeders and Conveyors are engineered to provide precise material handling for dairy, food, infant nutrition, pharmaceutical, and specialty industries. Designed with stainless steel construction, these systems offer robust solutions for transporting fragile and abrasive powders, including milk and cheese powders, whey protein, and vitamin supplements. The feeders and conveyors utilize a demountable design, compliant with 3A sanitary standards, ensuring easy cleaning and maintenance. With screw diameters ranging from 4″ to 10″ and lengths up to 60″, they facilitate controlled discharge rates and are adaptable for batch, continuous, and manual operations. Incorporating vibrating tube technology eliminates product degradation, maintaining material integrity while ensuring efficient, dust-free operation. Custom options, such as variable pitch augers and double flight designs, support integration into existing production lines, while optional PLC control enhances automation. These features make them an ideal choice for maintaining high-quality production standards across various complex applications.
