Re: Screw Conveyor - Details Needed
In screw conveyors
the length is normally defined as EITHER:
the dimension between the end plates OR
the dimension between the centrelines of the inlet and outlet
the size of the screw conveyor is normally defined as:
the outside diameter of the finished scroll
the tube on which the finished scroll is mounted is according to the application and manufacturers standards.
If you are making a scroll by cutting sections from flat plate then this is simple geometry based on FINISHED outside diameter, inside diameter and pitch. (Forming into the correct shape is another matter!!) ■

Dear Sir,
We need your assistance for the below points.
Drawing details:
Screw conveyor Length : 7500 mm, Pitch 300mm , Screw Dia: 300 mm,Flight thickness : 3 mm,Capacity :11tons/hr M.O.C: Mild steel
1. What should be the shaft diameter to be selected to have a pitch of 300mm.
2. What should be the bore to be made on the flights to have a pitch of 300mm.
3. In the drawing they have given the screw dia as 300 mm.Is it the final screw dia after swirling or srew dia before swirling.
