Flexicon Twin BEV-CON flexible screw conveyor system

The Flexicon Twin BEV-CON flexible screw conveyor system with a common hopper and mobile base is supplied ready to plug in and run, and the self-contained system can fill two vessels with the same material simultaneously. Mounted on a frame with locking castors for in-plant mobility, it can be utilised in multiple locations and rolled to a washdown booth.

The hopper is equipped with dual discharge adapters, each of which charges a BEV-CON flexible screw engineered to move free- and non-free-flowing bulk materials that pack, cake, smear, fluidise, compress or are otherwise problematic to convey. The screws are the only moving parts contacting material and are driven beyond the point at which material is discharged, eliminating wear and contamination related to product contacting seals and bearings.

Discharge housings of the conveyors are supported by dual booms cantilevered from the mobile base, allowing discharge of material into processing equipment or storage vessels up to 3.5 m above the plant floor.

The hopper has a capacity of 550 litres and is designed with divergent angles causing non-free-flowing material to topple into the conveyor charging adapters. The unit is constructed of 316 stainless steel and features sanitary quick-release clean out caps, quick-disconnect discharge box access covers, washdown motors and a stainless control panel with stainless conduit and liquid-tight compression fittings that permit washdown during changeovers and/or when conveying of corrosive materials. HMI controls allow manual and automatic start/stop and speed adjustment.
