The working principle of the screw conveyor is mainly based on its rotating spiral blade. When the motor drives the rotating shaft to rotate, the spiral blade will push the material along the axis direction, so as to realize the conveying of the material. The material’s own weight and the friction resistance of the screw conveyor housing to the material ensure that the material will not rotate with the blade. The screw shaft of the screw conveyor has a thrust bearing at the end of the direction of material movement to react with the axial force of the material to the screw. When the captain is long, the middle hanging bearing will be added to support.
Screw conveyors are widely used in many fields. In the environmental protection industry, it is often used to transport all kinds of sludge, solid waste and other materials, compact structure and easy to clean and maintain. In the building materials industry, screw conveyor is often used to transport cement, lime, gypsum and other powdery materials, its sealing is good, can prevent the material in the conveying process of dust. In addition, screw conveyors are also widely used in food, chemical, mining and other industries, used to transport grains, beans, powder or granular chemical raw materials and products, ore, coal and slag and other materials.
In general, screw conveyor with its unique working principle and a wide range of application fields, plays an irreplaceable role in many industries.
