Helicoid Flight Screw Conveyors

Helicoid Flight Screw Conveyors

Helicoid flighting is cold rolled from special steel into a continuous helix that produces a work-hardened, smoothly finished flighting surface. It is very cost-effective and provides superior strength with diameter, pitch and thickness closely controlled. Helicoid screws are manufactured by mounting helicoid flighting on a center pipe and fastening by intermittent welds. Continuous welding on the carrying side or both sides is also available. Internal collars are inserted in each end and plug welded to accommodate shafts. Screws are structurally reinforced at the ends by end lugs.

Sectional Flight Screw Conveyors

Sectional Flight Screw Conveyors

Sectional flighting is manufactured from steel plate and formed into a helix. Sectional flighting is available in heavier thicknesses than helicoid flighting and used in more abrasive applications. Sectional screws are manufactured by mounting sectional flighting on a center pipe, butt welding each flight together and fastening by intermittent welds. Continuous welding on the carrying side or both sides is also available. Internal collars are inserted in each end and plug welded to accommodate shafts. Screws can be structurally reinforced at the ends by end lugs.
