Screw Conveyor
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. Screw conveyors in modern industry are often used horizontally or at a slight incline as an efficient way to move semi-solid materials, including food waste, wood chips, aggregates, cereal grains, animal feed, boiler ash, meat and bone meal, municipal solid waste, and many others.
Screw conveyors can be operated with the flow of material inclined upward. When space allows, this is a very economical method of elevating and conveying. As the angle of inclination increases, the capacity of a given unit rapidly decreases.The rotating part of the conveyor is sometimes called simply an auger.
We mainly provide two kinds of screw conveyors:
- LS Series (Tubular and Trough Type)
Adopting DIN 15261-1986 standard;
Screw diameter is from 100mm to 1250mm, with conveyor length up to 70m;
Inclination angle is below 20 degree.
- LSY Seris (Tubular Type)
Specialized cement screw conveyor;
Screw diameter is 90/ 115/ 135/ 163/ 185/ 237/ 285/ 362mm, with conveyor length up to 22m;
Inclination angle is below 60 degree.
