Showroom Spotlight Series: Flexible Screw Conveyor

Reliable Product Feeding for FFS Bagging Systems

Efficient, adaptable, and built for simplicity, the Helix Flexible Screw Conveyor in the IMS warehouse provides a dependable solution for feeding product directly into our FFS bagging machine. Designed for smooth, controlled material transfer, it supports clean operation, consistent flow, and a compact footprint—ideal for modern packaging environments.

Efficient Product Transfer to FFS Bagging

The Helix conveyor uses a helical screw housed within a durable, enclosed tube to move bulk materials such as powders, granules, or pellets from the intake point to the FFS bagger. This enclosed design minimizes dust, spillage, and contamination while ensuring a steady, reliable feed into the bagging process.

Its flexible layout allows the conveyor to navigate tight spaces and adapt easily to existing equipment, making it well-suited for warehouse demonstrations, retrofits, and live production setups.

Key Advantages

• Consistently feeds bulk material into FFS bagging machines

• Compact, flexible design for tight or changing layouts

• Handles a wide range of powders, granules, and solids

• Enclosed system reduces dust, spillage, and product loss

• Simple installation with minimal components

• Low maintenance and durable for long-term operation

Designed for Integration and Control

The Helix Flexible Screw Conveyor is easily configured to match specific application needs, with customizable lengths, tube diameters, and discharge heights. Variable-speed drive options allow operators to fine-tune product flow, ensuring optimal fill accuracy and performance at the FFS bagger.

Optional screw and tube materials are available for abrasive or sensitive products, helping protect both the equipment and the product being conveyed.

Simple, Low-Maintenance Design

With few moving parts and a fully enclosed conveying path, the Helix system is easy to maintain and built for reliable daily operation. Reduced downtime and straightforward cleaning make it an ideal companion to automated bagging systems.
