Customizable Solutions for Diverse Material Handling Needs

Tailor the Sugar Screw Conveyor to suit your facility, with customizable diameters, lengths, hoppers, and discharge outlets. Whether you process sugar, grains, or bulk powders, this conveyor easily adapts to space and operational requirements, supporting both floor and structure-mounted installations.

Engineered for Performance and Durability

Constructed from mild or stainless steel, with powder-coated or polished finishes, the conveyor is built to withstand corrosive and abrasive environments. It operates efficiently at variable speeds (1060 RPM) and temperatures up to 80C, delivering dependable performance while maintaining low noise and minimal upkeep.

Efficient and Hygienic Material Handling

The dust-proof cover and sealed tubular casing ensure hygienic, efficient transfer of materials in food, chemical, and bulk processing plants. Grease-packed bearings reduce maintenance, and the helical geared drive system ensures smooth operation, translating to greater uptime and productivity.

FAQs of Sugar screw conveyor:

Q: How does the sugar screw conveyor operate and transport materials?

A: The conveyor uses a helical screw rotating inside a tubular casing to propel sugar or other materials from the feed hopper to the discharge outlet. The rotation, powered by a helical geared motor, moves bulk solids efficiently even at variable inclinations between 0 and 45 degrees.

Q: What materials can be conveyed using this screw conveyor?

A: It is suitable for conveying free-flowing and semi-free-flowing materials, including sugar, grains, powders, granules, and similar bulk solids, making it ideal for processing plants handling diverse products.

Q: When should I choose a customized hopper or discharge outlet?

A: Customized hoppers and discharge outlets are recommended when standard options do not fit your existing setup or process requirements. We tailor the design based on your plant layout, space constraints, and the nature of the materials being conveyed.

Q: Where can the sugar screw conveyor be installed within a facility?

A: The conveyor can be installed as a floor-mounted unit or supported by structures, according to the facility layout. Its versatile design ensures effective integration with existing processing equipment and workflow.

Q: What is the process for installing and commissioning the screw conveyor?

A: Installation involves securely mounting the conveyor to the floor or support structure, connecting the electric drive (220-240V), and aligning inlet and outlet connections. After setup, we recommend a commissioning check of motor function, bearing lubrication, and screw rotation before regular operation.

Q: How does the conveyor ensure hygiene and low maintenance?

A: A dust-proof cover and sealed structure minimize contamination and leakage, crucial for handling food-grade materials like sugar. Grease-packed bearings and heavy-duty construction keep maintenance requirements low and extend service life.

Q: What are the main benefits of using this screw conveyor in material handling?

A: Key benefits include efficient, continuous material movement, customization for specific needs, low operating noise, robust corrosion and abrasion resistance, minimal maintenance, and adaptability for a wide range of applications within processing industries.
