Powder Screw Feeder Conveyor

Powder Screw Feeder Conveyor can convey any powder to the packaging machine and food processing destination. It adopts the principle of spiral feeding and can convey in an inclined, horizontal or vertical manner. It is suitable for different scenarios and is made of stainless steel and carbon steel.

Working principle of powder spiral feeder conveyor

The powder spiral feeder conveyor pushes the material along the pipeline direction through the rotation of the spiral blade. When the transmission device is started, the motor drives the spiral shaft to rotate, and the spiral blade drives the material forward to complete the material conveying process.

Composition structure of powder spiral feeder conveyor

The powder spiral feeder conveyor is usually composed of the following main components:

Spiral shaft: It is the core component of the conveyor, runs through the entire length of the conveyor, and plays the main role in conveying materials.

Spiral blade: It is fixed on the spiral shaft and is the key component for pushing the material along the axis direction of the conveyor.

Bearing: It is used to support and fix the spiral shaft, reduce friction, and ensure the smooth rotation of the spiral shaft.

Transmission device: It is usually composed of a motor, a reducer, etc., which is used to drive the rotation of the spiral shaft.

Support frame: used to support the structure of the entire conveyor to ensure the stability and safety of the conveyor during operation.

Feed port and discharge port: used for the entry and exit of materials. The feed port is usually located at one end of the conveyor, while the discharge port is located at the other end, which facilitates the smooth transportation of materials.

Product features and advantages of powder screw feeder

The powder screw feeder has many advantages, such as efficient and stable conveying capacity, flexible and diverse design, etc. Its main features include but are not limited to the following points

1. Using double electric motors: feeding motor & vibrating motor, separately controlled.

2. Product funnel is designed to be adjustable vibrate, which lead to avoid product blocking and improve the adaptation of different products.

3. Product funnel can separate from the tube for easy assembly.

4. Special anti-dust design to protect bearing from dust.

5. In order to facilitate machine cleaning, following functions are added in: auger can reverse for emptying the tube, product discharge gate is mounted in the bottom of the funnel, auger can be disassemble for washing.

Application fields of powder screw feeder

The powder screw feeder is a kind of conveying equipment widely used in many industries. Its application fields include but are not limited to the following aspects:

Building materials industry: powder screw feeder is often used to transport raw materials such as cement and limestone powder to realize the automated feeding process and improve production efficiency.

Food processing: spiral feeder conveyors are used to convey powdered food raw materials such as flour, powdered sugar, and grains to ensure continuous feeding of food production lines, production efficiency, and food quality.

Chemical manufacturing: powder spiral feeder conveyors are often used to convey chemical raw materials or finished powders, such as granular fertilizers, plastic granules, etc., to meet the conveying needs of different process flows.

Pharmaceuticals: commonly used to convey pharmaceutical raw material powders or granules to ensure accurate feeding in the pharmaceutical production process and ensure production quality and safety.

Agricultural field: can be used to convey granular agricultural products such as feed and seeds to improve the efficiency of feed processing and seed processing.

Other industries: powder spiral feeder conveyors are also widely used in plastic processing, mining, environmental protection and other industries to convey various types of powdered or granular materials to meet the production needs of different industries.

As one of the indispensable key equipment in modern industrial production, powder spiral feeder conveyors play an irreplaceable role in improving production efficiency, reducing costs, and realizing automated production, injecting vitality into the development of various industries.
