Stationary screw conveyor for food industry of UHT

Conveyor screw stationary is designed for transporting grain and its products. The conveyor provides cargo movement in a horizontal position and at an incline (not more than 45 degrees). The components of the conveyor are the initial (loading) link, the final (unloading) link with the installed drive, the middle link (depending on the length of the conveyor different number), the level sensor.

The principle of operation of the conveyor is as follows: the product getting into the chute with a rotating screw, under the influence of pressure forces on it makes a movement along the axis of the chute. The load cannot rotate together with the screw as it is prevented by the friction force against the pipe and its own weight. The conveyor is loaded through an opening in the chute.

The product is discharged from the conveyor through the discharge window located at the bottom of the chute. There can be several discharge windows and all of them must be regulated by gate valves.
