U Type Screw Conveyor
After designing according to the given information and getting approval on the drawing are custom made.
What are U-Type Screw Conveyors and U-Type Double Screw Conveyors?
U-Type Screw Conveyors can be manufactured in various diameters considering the required conveying capacity. Additionally, like other screw systems, U-type screws can be produced with various quality options such as Hardox, stainless steel, or special anti-wear coatings based on customer demand or industry needs. The U-type screw is not only long-lasting but also does not require special maintenance, making it the most economical choice among screw types. Furthermore, since the U-type screw has an easily openable top cover system, the bed and the screw can be cleaned easily when used for transferring different products.
U-Type Screw Conveyors ensure the linear transmission of solid-bulk raw materials through translational motion. A screw feeder mechanically transports bulk materials from the feeding point to the discharge point by pushing them within a trough or tube channel using helical (spiral) flights fixed on a rotating shaft.
Sealing in screw conveyors is provided by elements such as Teflon packing, rubber-Viton seals, or mechanical seals. In screw conveyors exceeding certain lengths, intermediate bearings are used to prevent axial misalignment of the screw shaft.
Moreover, U-Type Screw Conveyors can be manufactured with double screws upon customer request. Similarly, U-Type Double Screw Conveyors can be used for both mixing and conveying.
