Resin bag lifted up to the hopper
Feeding an injection molding machine or extruder by lifting 25 kg bags to the hopper is repeated effort all shift long. A screw conveyor takes the pellets to the machine.
Industry · Plastics and packaging
Resin, parts and packaging in the plastics industry
In the plastics industry, the material arrives in resin bags, goes into the machine, comes out as a part and leaves packed. Every transfer done by hand costs time and people. The right screw conveyor and belt conveyor link these stages.
- Screw conveyor to feed resin pellets without lifting bags
- Conveyor at the outlet of the injection molding machine and the extruder
- Boxes and bales going straight to shipping

What holds the operation back
The problems that show up in this industry
Before talking about machines, it is worth looking at where the process loses time, material and people.
Parts piling up at the machine outlet
Parts falling straight into a box at the foot of the injection molding machine become a bottleneck and get crushed. A conveyor at the outlet takes the part to cool, be checked or packed.
Regrind going back into the process
The regrind that goes back into the mix also needs conveying. An enclosed screw or trough avoids spilling and dirtying the floor.
Bales and boxes standing in shipping
Finished packaging stacked on the floor waiting for the truck takes up space and delays loading. A conveyor to the dock keeps the flow going.

Industry questions
Questions that come up before buying
Yes. The screw conveyor is used for the continuous conveying of granulated plastic resin, and the diameter and length are defined by the amount the machine consumes.
Yes. Height, width and speed are adjusted to the machine and the part. Send the model of the machine or a photo of the site.
It depends on the particle size and how much dust the material releases. In these cases engineering assesses an enclosed screw or trough to avoid dirt.
