4. The silo top was manufactured in sections for easier installation on-site.
5. The screw feeders have been design with a gradually increased pitch towards the discharge end. This results in uniform material extraction.

Designing of a live screw conveyor bottom requires engineering capabililties. Each application is unique

What to consider during design:

• Type of material to handle
• Transport capacity out of the screw conveyor bottom
• Required torque/power to run the live screw feeders
• How to fill the silo and how to handle the material from the live screw bottom
• What kind of documentation that is needed
• How to install it on-site

BEMA has engineering capabilities to assist in clarification of the application. We can based on the agreed design manufacture the application and deliver it to the customer side.
