Hapman Highlights Next-Generation Helix® Flexible Screw Conveyor
Innovative solution designed to enhance efficiency in material transport
Kalamazoo, MI - Hapman, a global leader in the design and manufacture of custom bulk
solution engineered to enhance efficiency in material transport. The Helix® Flexible Screw
Conveyor is designed to excel in a multitude of applications, from bulk material transport to
batching and blending, effectively accommodating powders, granules, crystals, flakes, pellets,
and most irregularly shaped materials.
This innovative conveyor features unrivaled flexibility, utilizing a helicoid screw that rotates
inside a fixed tube to efficiently convey materials from point A to B. Its design allows for
horizontal conveying up to 80 feet and vertical discharge heights of up to 40 feet, making it
adaptable to various layouts and space constraints. The Helix® is available in sizes ranging from
2.5 inches to 8 inches in diameter, with capacities from 15 to 1800 ft³/h, ensuring it meets the
diverse needs of any operation.
The Helix® Flexible Screw Conveyor is equipped with a range of customizable options,
including multiple auger types tailored for different material characteristics, such as sticky
materials, fine powders, and heavy, abrasive substances. Additionally, the conveyor offers a tool-
free casing removal feature for quick maintenance, enhancing operational efficiency and
reducing downtime. The Hi/Lo functionality keeps operators safely at ground level, eliminating
the need for ladders or lifts, while the portable base allows for easy movement between
processes.
For operations requiring precise material dosing, the Helix® is available with a Loss-in-Weight
Batching option, integrating seamlessly with automated systems through programmable batch
controls and built-in load cells. The conveyor can also be customized with various hopper
designs, right-angle drives for low ceiling installations, and a center core option to mitigate
challenges when conveying dense or highly aerated materials.
Hapman's Helix® Flexible Screw Conveyor is not only a versatile and efficient material
handling solution but also a testament to the company's commitment to innovation and customersatisfaction. With quick-ship availability for select models in as fast as 48 hours, Hapman is
