Spiral conveyor or screw conveyor

Description

A screw conveyor is a type of conveyor, which is used to transport curved materials or materials with a bubble or powder structure. These strips are made of steel and their shape is similar to a snail. It transfers the material from one side to the other by using a spiral screw inside a tube.

Due to its curved structure, these tapes have the ability to transfer materials with structures such as bubbles, powders or watery materials. The spiral conveyor is used in various industries such as food, chemical and agricultural industries. In this article we will review this special product more fully, please join us.

Introduction of screw conveyor or screw conveyor

The spiral conveyor belt is a type of conveyor belt, which is designed to move and transfer curved materials or materials with a bubble or powder structure. These strips are mainly made of steel and their shape is similar to a snail.

This product consists of a spiral screw that is inside a steel tube or polymer material. Helical screw consists of screws connected to each other that are intricately connected. This screw is moved by a motor located at the end of the conveyor belt.

One of the unique features of the screw conveyor is the ability of high quotation. The spiral screw creates a rotational movement in the materials inside the pipe and transfers them from one side to the other. This rotational movement and changing the inclination of the spiral screw, causes the materials to advance towards the head of the conveyor belt.

Due to its curved structure, the spiral conveyor has the ability to transfer materials with structures such as bubbles, powders, or watery materials. In addition, these tapes are also very suitable in terms of the ability to transfer curved materials. Spiral conveyors are used as an effective and efficient solution in various industries such as food industry, chemical industry, pharmaceutical industry and agricultural industry.

Other features of the spiral conveyor include ease of washing, low maintenance and easy installation. Due to the simple structure and absence of complex parts, these tapes are less difficult to operate and maintain. In the spiral belt, the amount of power required to move the material is less than other conveyor belts.

Famco’s website also said this about this product: Screw conveyor, which is also called a material transfer machine, is a device that is used to transfer small and powdery bulk materials in short horizontal and vertical distances.

Features of spiral conveyor or spiral conveyor

The spiral conveyor has several special and unique features, which are as follows;

1. Helical Structure: The helical design of the conveyor allows the material to move straight up or down without having to change direction.
2. Uniformity of movement: The spiral conveyor moves at a uniform speed, which makes the material move uniformly.
3. The ability to adjust the desired height: the spiral conveyor has the ability to adjust the height. This means that you can customize the height of the bar to meet the specific needs of your company.
4. Ability to adjust the movement angle: the movement angle of the tape can be adjusted and the material can be moved to the desired angle. This feature allows you to move materials horizontally or vertically.
5. High precision: This type of tape has high precision and can move materials with high precision. This is very important for industries that need to move materials with special precision.
6. The ability to transfer materials of different sizes: the spiral conveyor has the ability to transfer materials of different sizes. This means that different types of materials can be transported easily.
7. Low energy consumption: The spiral conveyor has low energy consumption. This is not only useful for saving energy costs, but can also be used as an environmentally friendly solution.
8. Ability to be used in difficult conditions: The spiral type conveyor can be used in conditions where heavy, mixed, or difficult materials are moved. The reliability and power of this type of conveyor allows it to easily meet these conditions.

Application of spiral conveyor

The efficiency and application of the spiral conveyor is quite wide and we will examine it well in several items;

1. Transmission of particulate materials: The spiral belt is highly efficient for transporting particulate materials and moves the materials in the desired direction through the spiral movement around its axis. This performance is very suitable for conveying materials such as grains, seeds, minerals and small particles.
2. Uniform movement: The screw conveyor moves at a uniform speed and hence, it moves the material uniformly and there is no need to change the direction. This feature leads to maintaining the integrity of the materials and preventing the wastage of materials.
3. Adjustable for different needs: The spiral conveyor has the ability to adjust the height and angle of movement. This means that you can adjust the height and angle of the conveyor as desired to meet the specific needs of your company.
4. Low energy consumption: This equipment consumes less energy than other methods of material transfer. This efficiency means both saving energy costs and reducing the use of fossil energy sources.
5. Mechanical efficiency: This conveyor model has high mechanical efficiency. By using pneumatic or electric motors to move the auger, optimal mechanical strength can be used and better performance can be provided.
6. Wide application: screw conveyors are used in various industries, including mining industry, food and beverage industry, chemical industry, mineral processing industry, water and sewage industry and other industries. Due to the ability to adjust efficiency and easy use, the spiral conveyor has become one of the suitable solutions for material transfer in these industries.
7. Quiet device: Compared to other conveyors, this conveyor model is known as a quiet device. This feature makes it possible to maintain the health of employees in industrial environments and factories, and also to reduce noise pollution, albeit in a limited way.
8. Stability and reliability: The spiral conveyor belt is manufactured with a strong structure and high-quality materials, and hence it has high stability. Also, by using quality parts and quality engines, it offers unmatched reliability and efficiency in its performance.
