Screw conveyors are widely used, mainly used for conveying powdery, granular and small block materials, such as coal powder, soda ash, reclaimed rubber powder, zinc oxide, calcium carbonate and small coal, etc. Screw conveyors are not suitable for conveying Perishable, sticky and caking materials.
The rotating screw blade pushes the material to be conveyed by the screw conveyor, and the force that prevents the material from rotating with the screw conveyor blade is the weight of the material itself and the frictional resistance of the screw conveyor casing to the material.
The spiral blade welded on the rotating shaft of the screw conveyor, the blade surface type has solid surface type, belt type surface type, blade surface type and other types according to the different conveying materials. The screw shaft of the screw conveyor has a thrust bearing at the end of the material moving direction to give the screw axial reaction force with the material. When the length of the machine is long, an intermediate hanging bearing should be added.
