Screw Conveyor at the Best Price

Do you need a reliable and efficient way to transport bulk materials? Screw conveyors from INSORTEX offer high quality, durability, and favorable terms! We provide solutions for transporting various raw materials, semi-finished products, and finished goods, fully customized to your needs.

Application, Working Principle, and Design Features of the Equipment

A screw or auger conveyor is a special installation used to move bulk materials. It can transport products in both open and closed channels, and also lift them to a certain height (e.g., to the second floor of a workshop). The simplicity of the design, compact size, and tightness make this unit indispensable for operation and intermediate unloading. Using screws automates processes, reduces logistics time, and increases overall company productivity.

Manufacturing of screw conveyors is most relevant for the following industries:

  • feed production;
  • flour milling;
  • production of fuel pellets;
  • manufacturing of building materials and other products.

Working Principle and Design Features

The main working element of the equipment is a screw (auger), which rotates within a stationary housing by means of an electric motor with a gearbox. The screw blades capture and move the material to the discharge opening. The conveyor body usually consists of steel sections connected by flanges with airtight gaskets.

An example of using this equipment is a screw loader for grain, which operates in three stages: loading, transportation, and unloading into the receiver. Bearings support the screw, while the end bearing absorbs axial load.

Technical Specifications of the Screw Conveyor

We offer each customer an individualized selection of equipment based on their technical requirements. This allows us to accurately calculate the price of the screw conveyor and provide the most efficient equipment. The main specifications considered include:

  • equipment performance;
  • diameter and pitch of the screw (the distance traveled by the screw per full 360° turn);
  • blade thickness;
  • construction and size of the screw.

Types of Screw Blades

The selection of the working element depends on the characteristics of the transported materials:

  1. Solid blades – for bulk semi-finished products.
  2. Ribbon blades – for small-piece raw materials.
  3. Paddle blades – for viscous and sticky materials.
  4. Custom blades – for simultaneous mixing of materials during transport.

Types of Screw Conveyors We Manufacture

We offer closed (tubular) and open (trough) type screw loaders.

Closed screw conveyors have a sealed body, making them water- and airtight. These units are ideal for transporting dust-like materials both indoors and on outdoor sites. The rigid tubular body and compact design make them popular in various industries.

We offer the following types of closed screws:

  1. Straight, adjustable, or vertical models.
  2. Stationary or mobile modifications.
  3. Made from stainless steel or galvanized.
  4. Equipped with feeders and adjustable screw speed.
  5. Reversible.

Open screw conveyors are used only indoors, as they lack airtightness. These are trough designs in which the screw rotates inside an open channel. An open-type screw conveyor is preferable for transporting materials that are odorless and without the risk of dust formation.
