U.S. Gypsum needed a dependable system to transport raw gypsum through multiple stages of its Southard, Oklahoma processing facility. Serpentix conveyors were installed to navigate inclines, confined layouts, and continuous production demands. The system improved material flow, reduced handling bottlenecks, and supported consistent, large-scale gypsum production.
Conveyor hauled ~15 tons/hour of screened gypsum waste via 40° incline and 90° helical turn into elevated processing building
Belt pans reinforced with stainless steel for magnet use and durability
Convoluted belt flattened at discharge for even feed into mixing and drying stages
Self-cleaning design ensured minimal residue and maintenance
~100% recovery of original waste pile + reuse of rejected products
Reduced environmental footprint and restored local industrial site
Created a $2M round-the-clock recycling operation for ongoing gypsum recovery
Helped transition from high-maintenance, multi-conveyor design to compact, versatile conveying
Industry: Manufacturing / Industrial Waste Recovery

System Used: Streamlined Gypsum Processing with Reliable Conveyor Integration
Application: U.S. Gypsum needed a dependable system to transport raw gypsum through multiple stages of its Southard, Oklahoma processing facility. Serpentix conveyors were installed to navigate inclines, confined layouts, and continuous production demands. The system improved material flow, reduced handling bottlenecks, and supported consistent, large-scale gypsum production.
Needed a system that could transport sticky, gumbo-like gypsum sludge across vertical and helical paths
Risk of heavy maintenance, labor, and cleanup from traditional conveyor setups
Tramp metal contamination required inline magnetic separation before final discharge
Layout constraints between outdoor pile and elevated processing plant
