Screw conveyors automatically transfer bulk materials
The Spiralfeeder line of flexible screw conveyors (photo) encompasses sanitary, standard and portable models, as well as custom designs. The Spiralfeeder line sets a rotating screw auger within an enclosed outer tube to automatically transfer powders, granules, blends, flakes and other dry, bulk materials from one point in the process to another within a sealed, dust-tight system. The line of conveyors is frequently used for transferring one or multiple materials from or into hoppers, mixers, reactors, tablet presses, bulk bag fillers and other equipment when gentle, quiet, reliable conveying is required. — Automated Flexible Conveyor, Inc., Clifton, N.J.
