Screw conveyors are an effective way to transport bulk materials at horizontal or low angles. In the operating logic of screw conveyors, a rotating screw pushes the material from point A to point B in a closed enclosure.
Waste dust and particles fall from the hopper to one of the screw conveyor inlets. A motor-driven rotary screw pushes material from one point to another through a sealed enclosure. At the end of the spindle, the material falls into just one container or a rotary airlock, depending on the application.
