Selection condition of the Screw Conveyor

Primary considerations for the selection of a screw conveyor are as follow:

1. Type and condition of the materials to be handled, including maximum particle size, and, if available, the specific bulk density of the material to be conveyed.

2. Quantity of transported material, expressed in pounds or tons per hour.

3. The distance for which the material is to be conveyed.

Below is the necessary information for the selection of a screw conveyor system, presented in a series of five steps. These steps are arranged in logical order, and are pided into separate sections for simplicity. The five steps are:

1. Establishing the characteristics of the material to be conveyed.

2. Locating conveyor capacity (conveyor size and speed) on capacity tables.

3. Selection of conveyor components.

4. Calculation of required horsepower.

5. Checking of components torque capacities (including selection of shaft types and sizes)
