Trough screw conveyors for animal by-products
Streamline the processing of animal by-products with reliable conveyors designed for continuous operation, ensuring efficient material flow and shredding while reducing maintenance downtime.

Conveys and Shreds Slaughterhouse By-Products
The CLO-CLOS Trough Screw Conveyors from WAMGROUP are engineered for demanding applications in abattoirs and industrial waste processing. These conveyors utilize a shaftless helicoid screw to handle continuous operations, efficiently conveying and shredding animal by-products such as bones, hooves, and fat. Offering modular design with various trough configurations, these units prevent material overload and include replaceable bottom bars to enhance shredding of fibrous materials. Equipped with gear motors for optimized performance, they integrate seamlessly into pre-processing and processing lines for producing bone meal, tallow, or animal feed additives. Constructed from hot galvanized carbon steel, they offer material durability and easy maintenance, with options for different end bearing assemblies, inspection hatches, and cleaning systems to match specific operational needs.
