Flexible Screw Conveyor Systems
The accompanying image showcases multiple flexible screw conveyors and hoppers that we manufactured for an Ireland-based company to convey plastic powders. With over twenty-five years of expertise in the solids handling industry, Trantec has collaborated with renowned brands and OEMs worldwide. Our extensive experience enables us to deliver high-quality, reliable solutions tailored to the specific needs of our clients.
Alongside manufacturing complete conveyor systems we offer a wide range of spare and replacement parts for flexible screw conveyors of all brands, including UHMWPE conveyor tubes, spiral augers, and fabricated components. All our parts are guaranteed to be 100% interchangeable with existing flexible screw conveyor systems, ensuring continuous operation and minimising downtime for your processes.
At Trantec, we are committed to excellence and customer satisfaction, ensuring that your material handling solutions are always efficient, reliable, and seamlessly integrated with your operational needs.
Chemical Handling Equipment
A leading manufacturer of cleaning products approached us to help optimise their material handling process. The company faced significant challenges with efficiently transferring raw materials to their production line, requiring a system at floor level with minimal climbing that must also fit in a small room with little working area.
To address these challenges, we proposed a solution involving the implementation of a stack tip station combined with a Flexible Screw Conveyor system specifically designed to enhance the efficiency and reliability of unloading and conveying bulk materials from sacks up to a bottle-filling machine. The sack tip station seamlessly integrated with the client’s existing setup, ensuring a smooth and consistent product flow.
Flexible Screw Conveyor For Food Industry
The image above showcases a flexible screw conveyor system we supplied to a snack food manufacturer based in Ireland. This system was designed to convey maise grits into a food processing line efficiently.
Trantec Flexible Screw Conveyors provide an efficient and cost-effective solution for transporting a wide range of free-flowing and hard-to-handle dry bulk solids, suitable for fine powders, grains, granules, pellets, flakes, and pills. Our extensive knowledge and experience ensure that we deliver high-quality, reliable solutions tailored to our clients’ specific needs. From complete conveyor systems to replacement parts, Trantec has you covered.
True-flow Screw Feeder
The accompanying image is one of our True-Flow feeders, which we manufactured for a UK-based construction company that required precise dosing of silica flour and sand. The True-flow range represents our latest and most popular offering, known for its ability to deliver accurate dosing of materials from kilograms to tonnes per hour.
Trantec True-Flow metering screw feeders are designed with modularity in mind; from various hopper sizes to different screw designs, our feeders can be adapted to your requirements, offering a versatile array of options that can be configured to meet the demands of a wide variety of applications and industries. The specific unit featured a 10-litre extension hopper, complete with a mesh inlet grid and lid, as well as additional base extension support as requested by the customer.
Rigid Conveyor For Handling Plastics
At Trantec, we pride ourselves on delivering customised solutions across all industries, including the plastic industry. Previously, we manufactured two rigid screw conveyor systems for a waste management and recycling company in the UK. The conveyors included integrated hoppers and frames and were Robust in construction and manufactured from mild steel to ensure durability and long-lasting performance.
These conveyors were specifically designed to integrate into the client’s existing setup seamlessly. This ensured a smooth transition and compatibility with their current operations. The conveyors were required to transport plastics into two extrusion systems and ensure efficient and reliable material handling throughout the process.
Screw Conveyor Inlet For Seasonings
To address this issue and ensure maximum hygiene, we engineered an inlet tailored for easy cleaning, meeting their hygiene and operational efficiency needs. Featuring a quick-release bomb door and tube connectors, it allows easy access to all parts for thorough cleaning, alongside a new seal design that enables rapid and easy removal for cleaning. The inlet also featured a crevice-free design to minimise areas where residue can accumulate, reducing the risk of contamination.
These enhancements not only improve the ease of cleaning but also significantly reduce downtime, boosting the overall efficiency of the client’s production line.
