Hopper Auger Screw Conveyor

Product Description

Screw conveyors are bulk material transportation systems composed of a rotating, spiral screw inside tubular casing or a trough. As the screw rotates, dry or semi-dry bulk material is pushed forward through the conveyor from one area to another.
Screw conveyor systems, also called auger conveyors, helix conveyors, worm conveyors and flexible screw conveyors, handle all kinds of different substances, including powder, sludge, dust, flakes, granules and other loose products like seeds, food waste, wood chips, cereal, grain, boiler ash, fuels, feed and cement.

Working Principle

In addition to transporting materials down a linear plane, industrial screw conveyors also aide in the mixing, agitation or breakdown of some substances due to their rotating motion with the screw’s paddles. While most are made out of metals like aluminum and steel, some plastic screw conveyors are used in high heat, sanitary and high impact applications. The screw and bulk materials that are being conveyed are held in a trough or wholly incased.

Tubular screw conveyors completely cover the screw, ensuring that no material will be lost in transit. Whether they are stationary and permanent or portable screw conveyors, these bulk handling systems are positioned at a number of orientations. Standard conveyors are horizontal, while some vertical screw conveyors lift material straight up and down. Inclined screw conveyors are positioned at an angle and are considered flexible conveyors if they can alter or bend in some way.
