What is the purpose of a particle screw conveyor?

The primary purpose of a particle screw conveyor is to efficiently and reliably transport granular or powdered materials from one point to another within a production or processing system.Whether it's the movement of agricultural produce, minerals, or processed materials, particle screw conveyors offer a reliable solution for conveying various particle types.

Purpose of a particle screw conveyor

Particle screw conveyors have a variety of functions to meet different application needs. Some common functions are listed below:

Conveying function: The basic function of the granular screw conveyor is to transport granular materials from one location to another. It propels granular materials along pipes or channels through rotating spirals or screws to achieve continuous and controllable transportation.

Mixing and stirring function: The screw conveyor can be used for the mixing and stirring process of granular materials. By adjusting the rotation speed and design characteristics of the spiral, different granular materials can be effectively mixed and evenly distributed.

Feeding and Metering Functions: The pellet screw conveyor can be used for accurate feeding and metering operations. By controlling the rotational speed and conveying speed of the spiral, the flow and quantity of granular materials can be accurately controlled to achieve precise metering and feeding processes.

Unloading and storage capabilities: Pellet screw conveyors can be used to unload materials from containers or storage facilities and transport them to other locations. It can effectively unload and store granular materials, ensuring the continuity and flexibility of the production process.

Appliation of particle screw conveyor

Particle screw conveyors are widely used in the following industries:

Grain processing industry: used to transport wheat, corn, rice and other granular materials.

Chemical industry: used to transport powder, granules and other materials.

Construction industry: used to transport sand, gravel, cement and other materials.

Mining industry: used to transport ore, coal and other materials.

Food industry: used to transport food raw materials, finished products, etc.

Pharmaceutical industry: used to transport pharmaceutical raw materials, finished products, etc.

These features make granular screw conveyors ideal for handling and transporting granular materials, and are widely used in various industries such as metallurgy, chemicals, food processing, mining, and agriculture. At the same time, depending on specific needs, screw conveyors can also be custom designed to meet special application requirements.
