Powder screw conveyors for fishmeal – 30025
Powder screw conveyors for fishmeal – 30025
Powder screw conveyors for fishmeal delivered as a complete project delivery for a fishmeal plant.
Delivery of machines:
- 11 pcs. of different powder screw conveyors
- 2 pcs. bucket elevators for vertical transport during the transportation process
Which tasks have BEMA solved in this project for powder screw conveyors?
- Based on a layout drawing of the existing factory, BEMA has designed all the screw conveyors and the bucket elevators
- Selected the steel material to be used for manufacturing the fish meal screw conveyors
- Manufactured all machines
- Assembled and tested them in our workshop
- Shipped the complete project to the final customer site
- Delivered a full documentation package for future maintenance of the machines
Powder transport of fishmeal is in general easy, but in parts of the process the fishmeal can be a little sticky and require attention.
What do BEMA suggest when we design powder screw conveyors for fishmeal?
- Ensure that the filling degress i lower than 30%
- Do not use intermediate bearings for the screw conveyors
- Manufacture all in 1.4301/AISI-304 stainless steel
If these guidelines are followed the screw conveyors will last for many years and require very little maintenance.

Screw conveyors for powder and granules covers a very broad range of different types of screw conveyors and design. Working with powders and granules require the technician to be cautious.
Which Type of information is necessary working with powder for screw conveyor transport?
- The density
- Clarify if the material can fluidize
- Ensure that the angle with horizontal is at least 15° below the slip angle of the material
- Clarify if the material is sticky and require a special design of the screw flights
BEMA has our own engineers and technicians. These can assist during the design process to get the right design of the screw conveyors and other related transport equipment.
