Inclined Screw Conveyor is a widely used conveying equipment. There are two kinds of screw conveyors divided from conveying direction, one is horizontal screw conveyor, and another is vertical screw conveyor. The conveyor is used for loose materials such as all kinds of powders, granules and small blocks. The screw conveyor is made of steel.
Products can be conveyed and elevated at the same time by mounting a screw conveyor at an incline. This is often desirable because it covers two operations with one piece of equipment therefore saving space and reducing downtime, maintenance cost, etc. A standard screw conveyor will often operate normally at angles up to 90º with only a small loss in capacity. Beyond that, adjustments and/or modifications are typically necessary.
