Recycling & processing technology
Conveying technology
Belt, chain, screw and vibrating conveyors sized in length, width and capacity to the material flow – turning machines into a plant.
Partner Vecoplan
01Performance
What it does.
Sized to fit
Width, length, incline and speed follow from the material, bulk density and required capacity.
Clean transfers
Chutes, scrapers and covers reduce spillage, dust and material loss at transfer points.
The right principle
Belt, chain, screw or vibrating trough – depending on material, temperature, abrasiveness and route.
Integrated into existing plants
Connecting new conveyors to existing machines, halls and steelwork – on request based on a 3D laser scan.
Safe in operation
Emergency stops, guards and maintenance access are part of the design, not a retrofit.
- Site survey by 3D laser scan
- Installation, dismantling and relocation

Machine types & parameters.
Typical machine types
- 01
Belt conveyors
Flat, troughed or cleated – the all-rounder for bulk materials over short and long distances.
- 02
Chain & scraper conveyors
For heavy, abrasive or hot materials and enclosed, low-dust routes.
- 03
Screw conveyors
Compact, enclosed conveying for shavings, dust and fine-grained bulk materials – also as a dosing element.
- 04
Vibrating conveyors
Spread and even out the material flow, for example ahead of screens and separators.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions.
01Do you also plan conveyors for existing plants?
Yes. Conveyors often connect new machines with existing ones – for example in extensions or modernisations. For tight installation situations we can survey the existing plant by 3D laser scan.
02Belt or chain?
Belt conveyors are economical and versatile but reach their limits with hot, highly abrasive or sharp-edged material. Chain or scraper conveyors are often the more robust choice there. We decide with an eye on material, route and maintenance.
03Do you also handle installation and commissioning?
Yes – delivery, installation and commissioning are part of our services, as is training your staff.
