Integrated bulk material movement for process plants

Ferro Oiltek engineers conveying systems around the material, required capacity, route geometry, operating environment and downstream process. Our Material Handling Division supports individual conveyors and complete plant-wide systems for oilseeds, meals, powders, biomass and industrial bulk solids.

Commodity handling profileSoybean – whole seed

Free-flowing; use gentle handling to limit splits and seed damage.

Typical range700–780 kg/m³
Reference values are typical loose bulk-density ranges only. Moisture, variety, particle size, compaction and processing condition can materially change density. Use a measured project sample for final equipment sizing.

Approx. route60.9 m
Daily movement480 t/day
Volumetric flow46.2 m³/h
Initial direction: Belt or drag-chain conveying is a practical starting point for oilseeds. Final equipment selection requires material testing and route review.
This tool creates a preliminary concept only. It is not a certified engineering design. Ferro Oiltek engineers will verify material characteristics, power, speed, safety, dust control, support structure and equipment sizing before quotation.

Engineered equipment portfolio

One division. Every transfer challenge.

Belt conveyors

Gentle, continuous movement for oilseeds, bags and bulk materials across long horizontal or inclined routes.

Screw conveyors

Controlled transfer, feeding and dosing of powders, meals and semi-free-flowing materials in compact spaces.

Drag-chain conveyors

Enclosed, dust-controlled movement of bulk solids with multiple inlet and discharge arrangements.

Bucket elevators

Efficient vertical lifting of seeds, grains, meals and granules with application-specific bucket selection.

Pneumatic conveying

Flexible enclosed transfer of powders and granular products using pressure or vacuum conveying principles.

Turnkey integration

Hoppers, feeders, magnets, weighing, dust collection, controls, supports and process equipment integration.
