Helix conveyor

Principle of Helix conveyor

Helix conveyors use the rotational motion of screw blades to transport materials along pipes. Here's how it works:

Material inlet: The material enters the screw cavity of the helix conveyor from the inlet.

Spiral blade movement: The motor drives the screw shaft to rotate, and the screw blades rotate accordingly, pushing the material forward.

Centrifugal force: The material is subjected to centrifugal force under the action of the screw blades and moves along the screw axis.

Conveying materials: The materials are gradually transported forward with the rotation of the screw blades, and finally discharged through the discharge port.

Advantages of Helix conveyor

Efficient and reliable transportation

Designed to move material in a controlled and efficient manner, which helps increase productivity and reduce labor costs.

Can be used for multiple functions

It can be used to mix, heat or cool, lift and dewater materials, making it a versatile conveying system.

Versatility

A wide variety of materials can be handled, including powders, granules, and even liquids. They are commonly used in a variety of industries including agriculture, food processing, mining and construction.

Prevent material compaction

The circular motion of the helix conveyor helps prevent material settling or compaction, which can be a problem in other types of conveyors.

Customizable Design

Can be customized to meet the specific needs of the application, including the size and shape of the tank or housing, the diameter and pitch of the screw, and the type of material being conveyed.

Low maintenance cost

Maintenance costs are generally low, with few moving parts and minimal wear and tear. They require little lubrication and are easy to clean and maintain.
