Screw Conveyors
A screw conveyor or auger conveyor is a mechanism that uses a rotating helical screw blade, called a “flighting”, usually within a tube, to move liquid or granular materials. They are used in many bulk-handling industries.
There are closed-type augers and trough augers. We have closed-type (circular cross-section) and trough (U cross-section with cap) screw conveyors in mild steel, galvanized, and stainless steel in lengths from 0.5 m to 12 m.
Up to 6m in length is available without an intermediate bearing.
Slight wear is observed on the grain of the conveyed product.
The inlet and outlet of the screw can be with an adjustable joint.
