Cold Rolled Steel Auger Conveyor Continuous Sectional Screw

Spiral Screw Function

The spiral conveyor is widely used in the material handling industry, primarily for short-distance conveyance of powdered, granular, and small block materials. Its working principle involves rotating spiral blades to propel the material axially, achieving continuous conveyance of the material. This conveying method boasts advantages such as a simple structure, reliable operation,

and ease of maintenance, making it suitable for various materials that are not prone to breakage.

In certain applications, the spiral conveyor also possesses mixing and stirring capabilities. Especially when the spiral blades are designed with special shapes (such as blade-face or blade-propeller shapes), they can stir, knead, and mix materials while conveying them. This functionality is particularly important in industries such as food processing and chemicals, ensuring that materials achieve a uniform mixed state during conveyance.

During rotation, the spiral blades of the spiral conveyor exert a certain pushing force and grinding action on the material. This action aids in breaking down, refining, or altering the physical properties of the material. In industries such as agriculture and food processing, spiral conveyors are often used to push materials into presses, grinders, and other equipment for further processing.

Spiral Screw Application

1.Food Processing: In the food processing industry, spiral conveyors are commonly used for conveying grain particles such as cereals, rice, and others, as well as for mixing and advancing food items like dough and ground meat. Their gentle conveying method helps maintain the shape and integrity of the food while avoiding contamination and deterioration during the conveying process.

2.Mining and Mineral Processing: In the mining industry, spiral conveyors are primarily used for conveying solid mineral resources such as coal and limestone. Their robust structure and wear-resistant materials enable them to withstand the conveying demands of heavy materials.

3.Chemicals and Pharmaceuticals: In the chemical and pharmaceutical industries, spiral conveyors are frequently used for conveying powdered, granular, or liquid chemicals. Their excellent sealing performance helps prevent leaks and contamination of chemicals while meeting the requirements of Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP).

4.Building Materials and Construction: In the building materials industry, spiral conveyors are commonly used for conveying construction materials such as concrete and mortar. Their efficient conveying method and stable performance contribute to improving production efficiency and quality in the construction sector.

5.Environmental Protection and Waste Management: Spiral conveyors also play an important role in the environmental protection and waste management industries. They are used for conveying and processing various types of waste and pollutants, such as municipal solid waste and industrial waste. Through the conveying and processing capabilities of spiral conveyors, these wastes can be effectively sorted, recycled, or disposed of, thereby reducing environmental pollution.
