How To Choose The Ideal Screw Conveyor

Some customers are purchasing a screw conveyor for the first time and have never used the equipment before, so their understanding of the equipment is limited. So, how can they choose a screw conveyor suitable for their production needs?

1. Be clear about the type of screw conveyor you need. Explain your primary purpose, the materials you convey, and the required conveying capacity to the manufacturer. Our technicians will then recommend the most suitable type of conveyor.

2. Select the model of screw conveyor you need and thoroughly understand the characteristics, advantages, and disadvantages of each model. The dimensions of a screw conveyor's components, including the feed opening size, pipe diameter, and distance between the spiral blades, directly affect the conveying capacity of the equipment.

3. Contact the screw conveyor manufacturer frequently, asking questions and gaining a deeper understanding of any areas you don't understand. While listening to the manufacturer's advice, explain your specific requirements. This thorough communication will help you choose the conveyor you need.

Screw conveyors offer a simple structure, small cross-sectional dimensions, excellent sealing, reliable operation, and low manufacturing costs. They facilitate intermediate loading and unloading, are reversible, and can convey in two opposite directions simultaneously, making them suitable for a wide range of applications.
