Choosing a Screw Conveyor for Material Handling
Question
Under what circumstances will you choose a screw conveyor for material handling?
Answer
Screw conveyors are one of the most versatile and cost-effective mechanical conveyors for bulk material handling. Screw conveyors are ideal for conveying dry to semi-dry and free flowing to sluggish bulk materials horizontally, vertically or at an incline. Screw conveyors are available in a variety of sizes, lengths, configurations, components, materials of construction and can be totally enclosed for dusty, corrosive, sanitary or hazardous environments.
Choosing a screw conveyor for your material handling application involves several considerations to ensure proper functionality. Please consult with KWS engineers who can evaluate your needs and recommend the correct material handling equipment for your application.
