U-Trough Screw Conveyor
U-trough screw conveyors are widely used for conveying bulk solid materials such as powders, granules, flakes, and pellets. The system is constructed with a helical screw flight welded onto a central pipe, designed according to the overall length and capacity requirements of the conveyor.
These screw conveyors are suitable for critical applications and can be supplied with special features such as jacketed construction for heating or cooling of the conveyed material. Most standard U-trough screw conveyors are manufactured for captive consumption as part of turnkey projects.
With a robust and adaptable design, U-trough screw conveyors provide smooth and steady transport of dry solid materials without causing preferential feed. We custom design and manufacture screw conveyors to meet specific customer and process requirements.
