Feb 21, 2017 The purpose of this article is to help the reader understand the basics of inclined screw conveyor design for various applications. History of Screw Conveyors. Archimedes Screw for Lifting Water. Archimedes designed the screw conveyor in the third century B.C. The first screw was used for removing water from ships and for irrigating farmland.
MoreThe screw conveyor is a direct descendant of the Archimedes screw. However, while the Archimedes screw lifts fluids trapped within cavities formed by its inclined blades, the screw conveyor propels dry bulk materials (powders, pellets, flakes, crystals, granules, grains, etc.) through the
MoreA screw conveyor is an Archimedes screw contained within a tube and turned by a motor so as to deliver material from one end of the conveyor to the other. It is particularly suitable for transport of granular materials such as plastic granules used in injection moulding, and cereal grains. It may also be used to transport liquids. In industrial control applications the conveyor may be used as a rotary feeder or variable rate feeder to deliver a measured rate or quantity of material into a process.
