Vertical Screw Conveyor

Product Description

A vertical screw conveyor is a small, effective means of vertically moving large items. It has a revolving screw that is housed in a housing that can be adjusted for use with various materials. A smooth material flow is guaranteed by the variable pitch design, while safety elements guard against mishaps. It takes up less room, works with different materials, and can be adjusted to match particular layouts. Vertical screw conveyors provide a cost-effective option for vertical material transportation in sectors including food processing, pharmaceuticals, and mining thanks to its gentle handling and little maintenance needs. 

Following are some characteristics and advantages of vertical screw conveyors:

Features of Vertical Screw Conveyor:

1. Casing Options: Depending on the material being handled and the environmental circumstances, vertical screw conveyors can be built with a variety of casing materials, such as stainless steel, carbon steel, or other alloys.

2. Variable Pitch: To optimise material flow and avoid any material blockage or bridging, the screw's pitch can be changed throughout its length.

3. Safety Features: To limit access to moving parts and reduce the danger of accidents, vertical screw conveyors are fitted with safety features including covers and guards.

4. Flexibility: These conveyors are capable of transporting a variety of substances, including powders, granules, flakes, and even viscous substances. They can adapt to a variety of industries, including mining, pharmaceuticals, chemicals, and food processing.

Benefits of Vertical Screw Conveyor:

1. Effective Bulk Material Handling: Vertical screw conveyors are made to carry bulk goods vertically in an effective manner, allowing for a continuous and smooth flow of materials. This aids in streamlining production procedures and cutting down on downtime.

2. Space Saving: Because vertical screw conveyors transfer goods vertically, they require less horizontal space than conventional types of conveyors. They are therefore appropriate for installations with constrained space.

3. Vertical screw conveyors can be configured to meet unique layout needs, such as having several inlets or exits, and they are simple to connect into existing systems.

4. Gentle Material Handling: Vertical screw conveyors' screw design and modest rotational speed enable gentle material handling, minimising deterioration or damage to delicate or irreplaceable objects.

5. Versatility: Vertical screw conveyors are capable of transporting a variety of materials, including both wet and dry ones. By adding other components to the system, they can also be utilised for mixing, cooling, or heating purposes.

6. Vertical screw conveyors are a cost-effective option for moving bulk items since they require little upkeep and use little energy. They save money in the long run because they are dependable and long lasting.

Overall, vertical screw conveyors offer a useful and effective method for vertically moving bulk products. They are flexible, space-saving, and customizable to meet the needs of different industries.
