Custom Screw Conveyor
Mechanical screw conveyor perfectly suited for your application.
A mechanical screw conveyor can be designed specifically for unique applications that may require exotic grades of steel, such as Hastelloy or Duplex 2205, or stainless-steel sanitary conveyors with clean-in-place (CIP) features. Our team of designers and process engineers have developed and deployed custom screw conveyors around the world. Customizations can include specialized hoppers, variable frequency drives (VFDs), portable designs, split tube inclined screws, heating and cooling options, live-bottom bins, multiple augers, custom-engineered agitators, and more.
Where necessary, our test lab is available to conduct pilot and lab-scale testing to assess the feasibility of conveying your product.
Let the S. Howes’ engineering team design a custom screw conveyor to meet your production needs.

Test Lab & Innovation Center
Your Material Product. Our Thermal Processing Equipment.
Make sure your new process equipment delivers your desired final material requirements.
Lab Testing
Leverage the CPEG Innovation Center and expertise in process engineering to test material product prior to the design or purchase of bulk solids and material handling equipment.
Testing With Rental Units
When material testing in the Innovation Center is not feasible, S. Howes provides rental equipment that can be shipped directly to your site for reliable testing of powder and bulk solids materials.
