For decades, WAMGROUP has built extensive expertise in the handling of powders, granules and bulk materials across a wide range of industries. This experience has established the Group as a global leader in bulk solids handling technologies and one of the world’s foremost manufacturers of screw conveyors.
Selecting the right conveying solution is critical. A poorly designed system can lead to material degradation, inconsistent flow, increased wear and higher operating costs. Conversely, a conveying system engineered around the specific characteristics of the material and the process can improve reliability, reduce downtime and enhance overall plant performance.
This philosophy underpins WAMGROUP’s approach: combining robust, proven technologies with deep application knowledge to deliver solutions that integrate seamlessly into the production process and create measurable value throughout the plant lifecycle.
A Complete Portfolio for Bulk Material Handling
WAMGROUP’s mechanical conveying portfolio is built around a comprehensive and highly modular range of technologies designed to support every stage of bulk material handling.
While screw conveyors remain at the heart of the product range, the portfolio also includes screw feeders, vertical conveying systems, bucket elevators, chain conveyors, rotary and diverter valves, discharge equipment and silo safety devices.
This breadth of solutions enables WAMGROUP to act as a single technology partner for complete material handling systems. Rather than supplying individual machines, the company supports customers throughout the entire process chain—from material extraction and discharge to conveying, feeding, dosing, interception, loading and storage.
A key advantage lies in the combination of industrial standardisation and application-specific flexibility. Modular product platforms ensure consistent quality, cost-effective manufacturing and reduced lead times, while allowing configurations to be tailored to different materials, operating conditions and plant layouts.
The result is a reliable and scalable approach that simplifies engineering, facilitates maintenance and supports long-term operational efficiency.
Screw Conveyors: The Core of WAMGROUP Expertise
Screw conveyors represent one of the most recognised and widely used technologies within the WAMGROUP portfolio. Designed for the reliable handling of powders, granules and bulk solids, they are successfully employed across sectors including cement, construction materials, food processing, animal feed, chemicals, plastics, glass production and foundries.
Among the most widely adopted solutions are TU Tubular Screw Conveyors, whose modular design facilitates integration into a broad variety of production environments.
Engineered for continuous operation and long service life, WAMGROUP screw conveyors combine robust construction with low maintenance requirements. Their design incorporates high-quality screw flights, reliable bearing assemblies, integrated drive units and sealing solutions selected according to process conditions and material characteristics.
To meet the needs of specialised applications, the range includes stainless steel versions for hygienic and corrosive environments, heavy-duty configurations for abrasive materials and elevated temperatures, shaftless screw conveyors for sticky or fibrous products, and trough-type designs where open or customised layouts are required.
This versatility allows customers to select the most appropriate solution while maintaining the reliability and operational consistency expected in demanding industrial processes.
Controlled Feeding for Consistent Performance
The performance of any conveying system begins with the way material enters the process. For this reason, WAMGROUP has developed a complete range of screw feeders designed to ensure accurate and consistent material dosing.
Among the most established solutions are ES Screw Feeders, extensively used in cement and powder handling applications, together with customised feeder configurations based on the TU platform.
By transforming variable bulk material behaviour into a controlled and predictable process input, these systems help maintain stable production conditions, optimise conveying efficiency and improve product quality.
Effective feeding is often overlooked, yet it plays a decisive role in overall plant performance. Leveraging decades of application experience, WAMGROUP supports customers in selecting the most suitable feeder configuration based on material characteristics, throughput requirements and process objectives.
Vertical Conveying and Heavy-Duty Solutions
Many industrial facilities require materials to be transported vertically or over extended distances. To address these challenges, WAMGROUP offers a range of solutions including vertical screw conveyors, specialised sludge handling systems and bucket elevators for high-capacity vertical transport.
Designed for continuous operation and energy-efficient performance, these systems ensure reliable material flow while minimising losses and maintenance requirements.
For applications involving high throughputs, abrasive materials or demanding operating environments, chain conveyors provide a robust and dependable solution. Their strength and durability make them particularly suitable for sectors such as cement production, mining, quarrying and other heavy industrial processes.
By combining standard and heavy-duty technologies within a single portfolio, WAMGROUP can support a wide variety of conveying requirements while adapting solutions to the specific physical properties of the material being handled.
Integration Creates Value
One of the distinguishing characteristics of WAMGROUP’s offering is the ability to integrate conveying equipment into a complete bulk solids handling ecosystem.
Conveyors and feeders can be seamlessly combined with rotary valves, diverter valves, discharge aids, loading equipment, silo accessories and monitoring systems. This integrated approach simplifies plant design, reduces interface risks and ensures that all components operate efficiently as part of a coordinated system.
For customers, the benefits extend beyond individual machine performance. Integrated solutions contribute to improved productivity, enhanced operational reliability, simplified maintenance and increased process safety.
In industries such as cement, construction materials, food and feed, chemicals, plastics, renewable energy and environmental technologies, these advantages can have a significant impact on competitiveness and long-term profitability.
A Reliable Partner for Modern Industry
As industrial operations continue to pursue higher levels of efficiency, sustainability, safety and process reliability, conveying technology is evolving from a simple transport function into a strategic process asset.
Through its combination of application expertise, modular engineering and comprehensive product portfolio, WAMGROUP supports customers worldwide with solutions that optimise material flow, enhance operational continuity and simplify plant integration.
From screw conveyors and feeders to bucket elevators, chain conveyors and complete bulk solids handling systems, WAMGROUP delivers technologies designed not only to move materials, but to improve overall process performance and long-term plant productivity.
In this way, mechanical conveying becomes more than a means of transport—it becomes an enabler of industrial excellence.
