Inclined tubular screw conveyors for premix – 18761

Inlcined tubular screw conveyors manufactured for transporting premix building material in a concrete factory.

What are the design parameters for inclined screw conveyors above 45°

1. Housing in general be tubular to reduce the backflow of material
2. The pitch of the screw flight must be reduced compared to a horizontal screw conveyor
3. The power of the gear box shall be increased to compensate for the vertical transport

In this case, the customer asked for long life screw conveyors with a minimum of maintenance.
