Atara Equipment Ltd
About
Atara Equipment Ltd, founded in 1967 and headquartered in Laval, Quebec, Canada, is a manufacturer of shaftless and shafted screw conveyors and associated wastewater treatment equipment with over 600 installations across North American treatment plants and industrial facilities. The company designs and manufactures its full product line at a 100% Canadian facility, providing in-house engineering, 3D design, fabrication, assembly, delivery, on-site installation, and after-sales service. Atara's core conveyor lineup includes horizontal, inclined, and vertical shaftless and shafted screw conveyors for transporting screenings, grit, and sludge. Screening processing equipment features compactors and washer-compactors that dewater and wash organic matter from captured debris, along with small screening units for industrial applications. Grit handling products cover inclined and vertical grit classifiers for sand separation and dewatering, plus bolt-in grit chambers for retrofitting existing tanks. Storage and loading systems include live bottom multi-screw conveyors (2-screw and 4-screw configurations) for hopper discharge, storage hoppers, and outloading and level-loading conveyors with slide gates. Beyond municipal wastewater treatment, Atara serves the agro-industrial sector including meat processing, food and beverage, and agronomy; recycling and biomethanization; and general industrial markets spanning mining, automotive, pulp and paper, and foundries.
Key Products
Coreless spiral flighting conveyors that transport screenings, grit, sludge, and other wastewater materials without a central shaft, eliminating material wrapping and clogging.
Traditional screw conveyors with central shaft for heavier-duty material transport in wastewater and industrial applications.
Screw conveyors designed for angled material transport, moving screenings or sludge from lower to higher elevations in treatment plants.
Upright screw conveyors that lift materials vertically, suitable for space-constrained installations where horizontal conveying is not possible.
Screw-driven dewatering and compaction units that reduce volume of screenings by removing water and compressing debris for disposal.
Combined washing and compacting units that clean organic matter from screenings while dewatering and compressing the remaining debris.
Inclined screw-type classifiers that separate and dewater grit from wastewater grit chamber effluent for disposal.
Vertical screw classifiers that separate grit from wastewater flows in a compact footprint, suitable for installations with limited floor space.
In-channel or concrete tank systems designed to extract sand and grit from wastewater, available with bolt-in-place retrofit options for existing tanks.
Multi-screw extraction conveyors installed beneath storage hoppers to ensure complete material discharge, available in 2-screw and 4-screw configurations.
Receiving and storage vessels for screenings, grit, or sludge that feed material to downstream conveyors or processing equipment.
Shaftless or shafted screw conveyors with slide gates that transfer stored material from hoppers to trucks or containers for disposal.
Screw conveyors that evenly distribute material across storage containers to maximize capacity and prevent uneven loading.
Compact industrial screening units for small-flow wastewater applications that capture and remove debris from influent streams.
Replacement shaftless and shafted screws, wear liners, slide gates, shock relays, gear drive motors, and safety instruments for Atara equipment.
