Conveyors

Horizontal Screw Conveyor

When your line depends on moving materials accurately and efficiently, the horizontal screw conveyor from FPEC delivers steady, controlled conveyance designed to handle demanding production environments without compromising speed or sanitation.

Ideal for applications involving bulk product transfer or controlled feeding between phases, this conveyor is built to handle a wide range of food processing needs. Its robust construction and precision design make it an integral part of grinding lines, marination systems, and beyond—ensuring that nothing stalls your output.

For processors who can’t afford missteps in flow control, this is the conveyor that keeps everything on track.

A Conveyor Belt System for Demanding Applications

At FPEC, we understand that no two production lines are the same. That’s why our horizontal screw conveyors are never one-size-fits-all. Each system is designed in collaboration with your team to ensure proper fit, function, and flow—based on the specific needs of your operation.

Whether you’re moving ground product, blended ingredients, or other high-volume materials, our screw conveyors offer precise, even delivery that helps prevent product bridging, buildup, or backflow. The enclosed design limits contamination risk and supports a cleaner processing environment, while the screw speed and diameter are tailored to your material characteristics.

Every unit is built with cleanability, efficiency, and durability in mind, so you can count on it day in and day out.
