Component Description Screw conveyors are one of the oldest and simplest methods for moving bulk materials and consist primarily of a conveyor screw rotating in a stationary trough, Material placed in the trough is moved along its length by rotation of the screw which is supported by hanger bearings. Inlets, outlets, gates and other accessories control the material and its disposition. Screw conveyors are compact, easily adapted to congested locations and can be mounted horizontal, vertical, and in inclined configurations. Their supports are simple and easily installed. These versatile conveyors...

component description Trough Ends and Hangers The trough ends support the conveyor drive and end shafts while the hangers support the conveyor couplings, thereby maintaining proper alignment and clearance between the conveyor screw and trough. To provide additional protection for the drive shaft and end shaft bearings, for or against the material being handled, trough end seals are Conveyor Trough with Inlet Opening and Discharge Spout Discharge spouts provide outlets for the material and direct its flow to bins or succeeding equipment- With more than one discharge point in a conveyor, selective...

component description Conveyor Screws Helicoid Flight Conveyor Screws The helicold flight conveyor screw is made of a helix, formed from a flat steel bar or coil strip and mounted on a pipe or shaft. The helix, formed by special rolling equipment to the required diameter, pitch and thickness, is a smooth, continuous one-piece flight. By virtue of its one-piece construction, it possesses superior strength. The absence of laps, rivets or welds on the carrying face of the Flight promotes and maintains cleanliness and reduces wear. The rolling process effects a hardening and smoothing of the flight...

component description Conveyor Screws Cut flight conveyor screws have notches cut in the periphery of either helicoid or sectional flights. These notches supplement the conveying action with a moderate mixing action. They are used for light, fine, granular or flaky materials. Ribbon flight conveyor screws consist of continuous helical flighting formed from steel bar and secured to the pipe by supporting lugs. They are used for conveying sticky, gummy or viscous substances, or where the material tends to stick to flighting at the pipe. Conveyor screws with paddles have paddles spaced at intervals...
