Tubular Screw Conveyor

Description

Specifications

Casing Design

Tubular casing: The tubular casing provides containment for the materials being conveyed, preventing spillage and dust emissions.

It also offers protection for the screw, reducing wear and extending the life of the conveyor.

Material Construction

Can be offered both in mild steel and stainless-steel construction.

Screw Design

The screw is the central component responsible for moving materials. It typically consists of a helical flight mounted on a central shaft.

Versatility

Materials Handling:Mild steel screw conveyors can handle a wide range of materials, such as powders, granules, and bulk solids.

Customization:These conveyors can be customized based on the specific requirements of the application.

Drive Options

Motor Types: Screw conveyors can be powered by various types of electric motor configurations. The choice of motor depends on factors such as the required capacity, speed, and the nature of the materials being conveyed.

Inlet and Outlet Options

The conveyors can be designed with different inlet and outlet configurations to accommodate specific material loading and discharge requirements.

Maintenance and Safety

Access Points: Consider designs that facilitate easy access for maintenance and cleaning.

Safety Features: Incorporate safety features such as guards and emergency stop to ensure safe operation.

Capacity and Power Requirements

Capacity: The conveyor’s capacity is influenced by factors like the screw diameter, pitch, and rotational speed.

Power Requirements: The power needed to drive the conveyor depends on factors such as the material’s characteristics and the conveyor’s design parameters.

Applications

Cement plants, Thermal power plants, Floor mills, Rice mills, Animal feed, Bin and silo discharges, Grain storage and handling, Bulk solids handling, etc.
