Screw Conveyors U Conveyors

Screw conveyors are used to convey bulk material from almost any position (vertical, horizontal, or at an incline) and are one of the most reliable methods of conveyance. The screw conveyor is composed of a pipe with a welded steel strip that is formed into a continuous helix.The horsepower required for the above conveyor may also be determined graphically by the use of the two horsepower nomographs. The first nomograph determines Friction Horsepower. The second determines Material Horsepower. Total Shaft Horsepower is determined by adding the two values.
