Screw Conveyor
A screw conveyor is a mechanism used to move materials in a horizontal, inclined, or vertical direction. It consists of a helical screw blade rotating inside a trough or tube, effectively pushing materials along the conveyor’s length. Screw conveyors are commonly used in industries such as agriculture, construction, food processing, and mining for handling various bulk materials like grains, powders, pellets, and granules. They’re known for their simplicity, reliability, and versatility in transporting materials over short to moderate distances efficiently.
