Industrial Screw Conveyor System: Working, Types & Efficient Material Handling Solutions

Efficient Material Handling has become essential for maintaining productivity and reducing operating costs in the rapidly changing production environment of today. Because of their ability to withstand extreme conditions, provide efficient transport of bulk materials, and be useful across various applications, Industrial screw conveyor systems are one of the most commonly used and reliable methods of transportation of bulk materials in modern industries.

Margo Industries understands the significance of efficient material handling; therefore, we have designed our screw conveyor solutions to yield the highest degree of performance, even in the most difficult situations.

What is an Industrial Screw Conveyor System?

An Industrial Screw Conveyor System is a mechanical device designed to transport bulk materials. A rotating spiral screw blade (or flighting) moves bulk material on a continuous basis that moves along an enclosed tube or open trough. This type of conveyor system is typically found in the cement, food processing, chemical, and agricultural industries.

Screw Conveyor Systems are highly effective when transporting powders, granules, and semi-solid materials. They enable users to handle materials quickly and effectively while minimizing spillage.

Working Principle of Screw Conveyor System

A screw conveyor system allows the movement of product through an entire system (from head to tail) by using a rotating screw which turns at different speeds and in various directions based on the amount of time the screw rotates.

As with any piece of industrial machinery, failure can occur from many reasons including operator or maintenance error; therefore, Margo Industries wants to reduce mechanical failure due to the use of faulty components on the assembly and maximise the life of the product it manufactures by only purchasing high-quality components for its Industrial Screw Conveyor Systems so that its products will have high durability and be energy efficient.

Types of Screw Conveyor Systems

There are many different configurations of screw conveyors depending on the specific needs of the material being conveyed. The majority of configurations can be broken down into four categories.

1) Horizontal Screw Conveyors are used for carrying the material short distances, and usually, make straight (linear) paths with the material.

2) Inclined Screw Conveyors are typically used to carry materials to an elevation above their original position, with the ability to retain material flow.

3) Vertical Screw Conveyors perform very well at elevating bulk materials vertically in a small footprint.

4) Shaftles Screw Conveyors are very effective at moving sticky or fibrous materials with a much lower potential to clog.

Here at Margo Industries, we provide systems for Industrial Screw Conveyors based on the needs of our customers.
