Shafted Screw Conveyor
Conveyors
Our conveyors can be custom engineered for specific applications or as per CEMA standards
Shafted Screw Conveyor
A shafted screw conveyor has a solid shaft that goes through the flighting of the screw. This helps hold the flighting off of the bottom of the trough.
Shafted screw conveyors are ideal for handling dry to semi-fluid materials. They have the capability to be totally enclosed for corrosive or hazardous requirements. In most applications, the shafted screw conveyor uses hanger bearings every 10-12 feet. This kind of screw conveyor has no need for a liner, reducing the need for maintenance. The usual fill rate for a shafted screw is around 15-30%.
Our shafted screw conveyors are designed based on industry standards and modular in construction, providing flexibility for various applications. They can be custom engineered for specific applications or as per CEMA standards. A wide range of construction materials such as carbon steel, stainless steel and abrasion-resistant alloys are available as are different flight configurations. Shafted screws conveyors are very cost-effective and require minimal maintenance to operate.
