Screw Conveyor Manufacturer for Integrated Industrial Systems

Overview

The industrial screw conveyor, also known as chupim, is equipment designed for the continuous transfer and precise dosage of solid materials, powders and granules. As a specialist manufacturer, Agimix develops these conveyors exclusively as part of integrated mixing and discharging systems, ensuring your process feed is fully synchronized with key equipment.

Ideal for optimizing feeding time in industrial processes, the chupim-type screw conveyor provides fast and safe filling. In our projects, it works together with robust solutions, such as the Big Bag unloader and hoppers, streamlining logistics and providing high production on manufacturing lines.

Seamless integration is our differentiator. A classic application is the automated feeding of Ribbon Blender Mixers, which we custom manufacture in AISI 304 or 316 stainless steel, with capacities from 50 to 15,000 liters. By combining helical transport with the solid materials mixing plant, we eliminate operational bottlenecks and drastically reduce the dispersion of particulates in the environment.

For 15 years in the industrial agitation and mixing solutions market, Agimix understands that the efficiency of a plant depends on the synergy between its components. Therefore, we do not supply the conveyor in isolation, but rather we deliver complete industrial projects that range from receiving the raw material to the final mixture, serving the chemical, food, pharmaceutical and construction industries with excellence.

Frequently asked questions

Direct answers to the most common questions about this equipment and its application.

What is an industrial screw conveyor and what is it for?

The industrial screw conveyor is a mechanical equipment that uses a rotating helicoid to move solid materials, powders and grains continuously. It serves to automate the feeding of reactors and mixers, ensuring precise dosing and eliminating the manual transport of heavy loads in the factory.

Does Agimix sell individual screw conveyors or only in complete systems?

Agimix supplies the screw conveyor exclusively as part of complete and integrated industrial systems. We do not sell the accessory in isolation, as our focus is to deliver the entire engineering solution, combining transport with equipment such as the Big Bag unloader and high-capacity mixers.

How is the chupim screw integrated into the Big Bag unloader?

The chupim screw is strategically installed just below the capture hopper of the Big Bag unloader. As soon as the bag is opened, the material flows by gravity to the screw chute, which immediately begins the automated transport of the powder or grain to the next stage of the process, streamlining all internal logistics.

Which industries most use Agimix screw conveyor systems?

Our helical conveying systems are widely applied in the chemical, food, pharmaceutical and construction industries. They are ideal for any production sector that requires the clean, fast and safe movement of powders, granules and solid mixtures without the risk of cross-contamination.

Is it possible to feed a Ribbon Blender with a screw conveyor?

Yes, the automated feeding of the Ribbon Blender Mixer is one of the main applications of our integrated projects. The screw conveyor lifts the solid material to the upper nozzle of the mixer, optimizing feeding time and ensuring high operational efficiency in your production line.

What materials are used in the manufacture of integrated screw conveyors?

We manufacture our custom-made solid transport systems, mainly using AISI 304 or 316 stainless steel for sectors that require high sanitary standards, such as food and pharmaceuticals. For less restrictive applications, such as in civil construction or light mining, we can also use carbon steel with high mechanical resistance.

Does the screw conveyor system help reduce dust in the factory environment?

Yes, the use of a tubular screw conveyor, as it is a closed system, drastically reduces the dispersion of particulates in the air. By integrating this system into a solid materials mixing plant, we guarantee a much cleaner, safer working environment in compliance with environmental and occupational health standards.

How is the screw conveyor capacity dimensioned in the project?

The sizing of the transport capacity is done by our engineers based on the density of the product, the desired flow rate and the volume of the destination equipment. For example, if the destination is a 15,000 liter mixer, the screw will be designed with the appropriate diameter, helicoid pitch and power to fill it in the exact time stipulated by the customer.
