Conveyor System Technology
For all conveyor technology product solutions, we focus on safety, operability and durability. We help you get things moving.
Individual conveying and bulk material technology
Tailor-made support concepts are created at Werkstätten GmbH in close cooperation with our customers. In the same way that we think during the planning process, we also act the same during the implementation: quickly, conscientiously and goal-oriented. We implement the right solutions based on the requirements of the conveyed medium, the transport routes, the necessary functions and the special features of the object. No detail goes unnoticed, no matter how small it may seem at first glance. We prefer to check one time too many than one too few and regard every project as a chance to prove ourselves personally.
Made to measure solutions
Conveyor systems manufactured by us enable the gentle transport of bulk materials such as dust, granulate, powder and sludge in any desired direction — whether vertically, perpendicular or on inclines. More energy efficiency, greater safety and less time wasted are just some of the different issues that customers turn to us with. Our answer is always an innovative, tailor-made system that fits exactly. From low-budget to high-end, we implement customised system solutions in the field of conveyor technology in a targeted manner. That’s our goal.

Service
Assembly & Commissioning
An integral part of the large workshop team are experienced and skilled employees who carry out the assembly of products manufactured by us as well as third-party products. We put everything together that belongs together.
Repair & Maintenance
We offer our customers worldwide fast maintenance and repair when required. As an experienced company with technically skilled employees, we solve problems reliably, competently and at fair market prices.
Examples from our product portfolio
Screw conveyors
Precise transport, exact dosing and easy operation. We develop low-maintenance screw conveyors precisely matched to respective product properties, working conditions and tasks.
Trough screw conveyor: For transport on slopes of up to 30 degrees.
Tubular screw conveyor: For transport on slopes of more than 30 degrees.
Your advantages at a glance
- Conveying of powder, granules,
- Dust, sludge and problematic goods
- Shaft geometry adapted to bulk material
- Can be absolutely dustproof, shockproof and gas-tight
- Modular design
- Extremely flexible and suitable for reversing the direction of drive rotation
Vertical conveyors
These travel steeply upwards. Our dust-tight vertical conveyors reliably ensure the vertical transport of bulk material. They can be used for many purposes and different products, require minimal space and can be integrated into existing systems. We supply customised solutions, also in food-safe versions.
Your advantages at a glance
- High capacity
- Low space requirement
- Can overcome large differences in height
- Can be integrated into existing systems
- Dust-tight
- Bearing outside the conveyed material
- Design of the inlet and outlet opening in all directions
- Low height loss for input and output unit
- Inspection flaps / cleaning flaps
- ATEX-compliant version (optional)
- Food-safe version (optional)
Elevators
For those who want to aim high! Elevators or belt bucket elevators are continuous conveyors for vertical, dust-free conveying of bulk materials. We manufacture customised elevators as versatile and economical means of transport for continuous conveying. The latest safety components contribute to durability, offering the perfect solution, also available as a food-safe design.
Your advantages at a glance
- Equipped with the latest safety components (speed monitor, misalignment sensors, backstop and full detectors)
- Suitable as a special design for potentially explosive areas
Centre bearing units
We supply split centre bearing units with flexible lamella coupling in stainless steel design, which we have especially developed. The multi-plate coupling compensates for misalignments and minimises trunnion and bearing loads. The centre bearing unit is adapted to the size of the desired screw tube. Integration into existing screw conveyors is possible.
Your advantages at a glance
- Stainless steel split bearing housing
- Split roller bearings
- Cascade arrangement of the screw conveyors is not necessary
- Can be integrated into existing screw conveyors
- Easy to assemble and maintain
- Multi-plate clutch
- Minimum bearing and trunnion load
- Compensation of misalignments
- Air seal connection
- Bearing unit incl. mounting thread with connections
- Food safe design
- Several sealing options: Felt seal, labyrinth seal, shaft seal ring, special food-safe seal
- Permanent lubrication possible
