Maximum angle of angled screw conveyor

Angled Screw Conveyor is a screw conveying device with an inclined angle, which can realize conveying in any direction of 0-60°.

Tilt angle:  0-60°

Length: 4-70 meters

Conveying capacity: 1.2-142m³/hour

Hopper volume: 200L

Angled screw conveyor is a type of screw conveyor that is designed to transport materials at an incline or decline. It consists of a helical screw blade or flight that rotates within a tube or trough, moving materials along the length of the conveyor. The angle of the conveyor can be adjusted to suit specific material handling requirements, allowing for vertical or inclined transportation of bulk materials.

Angled screw conveyors are used for handling various bulk materials, including powders, granules, flakes, and other free-flowing materials. They are commonly used in industries such as food processing, agriculture, chemical processing, mining, and wastewater treatment.

The angle of an angled screw conveyor can vary depending on several factors, including the specific application, material characteristics, and equipment design. However, there are practical limits to the angle of inclination for efficient and reliable operation.

In general, angled screw conveyors can handle inclinations ranging from a few degrees to around 45 degrees. Beyond 45 degrees, the material may experience difficulties in flow and may require additional measures to prevent material sliding or backflow.

It's important to consider the properties of the material being conveyed when determining the angle of inclination. Factors such as the cohesion, density, particle size, and flowability of the material can affect its behavior and the maximum angle at which it can be effectively transported.

Precautions for choosing Angled Screw Conveyor

In order to achieve the best conveying effect of the Angled Screw Conveyor, it is necessary to clarify the following key information or make a special design for the Angled Screw Conveyor before purchasing:

1. The condition of the bulk material that needs to be transported - fluidity, adhesion, water content, whether it is regular, whether it is flammable and explosive

2. The delivery volume that needs to be achieved

3. The height from the ground to the delivery point, the reserved space for placing the Angled Screw Conveyor

4. Do you need variable speed design?
