Screw Conveyor designs and manufactures equipment for various industries such as Food, Pharmaceuticals, Chemical industries, Packaging industries, salt, cement, coal, biomass, agriculture, gypsum and other industries where there is a need for industrial duty equipment to convey free-flowing bulk materials.
Yagnm Screw Conveyors are available in many configurations. Screw Conveyors are designed based on industry standards and are modular in construction providing flexibility for a variety of applications.
Screw Conveyor has a constant volumetric capacity according to speed. It may be exposed to a head of material and by having a correctly designed flight and with variation in the speed can be used to control and feed equipment at a uniform metered rate down the process stream, eliminating surges in the process. In many situations, it is the only device that can be used as a feeder.
The flexible screw conveyor operation begins with product entering the sealed tube as the auger rotates. The shape, design style, size, and length of the auger are factors selected for each application. The screw conveyor is typically mounted to a hopper for easy loading of material. A single motor drives the auger rotation allowing the material to be pulled through the enclosed tube. The helicoid design of the auger effectively conveys a wide range of materials from powder, to granular, to larger particles.
Screw conveyors are bulk material transporting devices capable of handling great variety of materials which have relatively good flow ability. Flow ability find a CEMA material classification standard and denotes the degree of freedom of an individual material particles to move past each other. This characteristic is important in screw conveyor operation as the screw helix mounted on a central pipe or shaft, rotates within a fix trough or tube, pushes the material along the bottom and sides, sharing the material in the radial clearance between the helix and trough and causing the material to tumble upon itself as the moving face of the helical flight tends to lift the material.
The screw conveyor is one of the most cost-effective methods for transporting bulk materials. Screw conveyors are used in thousands of applications in almost every industry. Yagnm has provided successful bulk material handling solutions for over 20 years. If you have a difficult application, please Contact Us. We have the solution.
