In the United States, CPM|Crown, part of CPM Holdings Inc. (CPM), a leading solutions provider of process equipment, engineered technologies, and aftermarket parts and services, has announced the expansion of its technology, equipment and service offering to include a full portfolio of conveyor solutions. This strengthens CPM|Crown’s ability to deliver integrated, end-to-end systems and provides oilseed processors with a single, trusted partner for system design, equipment, and lifecycle support.
With the addition of conveyor systems, CPM|Crown now delivers a true one-stop solution for crush, proteins, and specialty facilities.
For more than 75 years, CPM|Crown has been at the forefront of designing and engineering oilseed processing facilities. Expanding into conveyor systems is a natural evolution of our business, allowing us to deliver even greater value to our customers, said Kris Knudson, President.
Purpose-built for the demanding environments of oilseed processing, the new conveyor portfolio includes a full range of robust solutions designed to support every stage of material handling:
- Chain drag conveyors — including vapor-tight drag conveyors for solvent-handling environments and horizontal loop conveyors for continuous material flow
- Bucket elevators — belt and chain configurations for efficient, high-capacity vertical transport
- Screw conveyors — including plug, tubular, and U-Trough designs for controlled conveying, feeding, and discharge
- Belt conveyors — from single and triple roller systems to air-supported designs for long-distance, high-capacity transport
By sourcing equipment from a single provider, customers can reduce complexity, improve coordination, and achieve cost efficiencies across their projects.
CPM|Crown’s integrated approach ensures processors benefit from the highest quality engineering standards and best-in-class delivery performance, with systems designed for long-term reliability and serviceability to help minimize
downtime over the equipment’s lifetime.
One call. End-to-end support.
In addition to equipment, CPM|Crown supports oilseed producers through “Lifecycle360”, a comprehensive, single-source support program. From pre-engineering through long-term operation,
Lifecycle360 connects customers to a global service network and strategic parts inventory to help minimize downtime and keep operations running at peak performance.
With CPM|Crown, customers gain more than equipment. They gain a partner that’s fully committed to their long-term success, said Kris Knudson.
