Screw conveyor
TC/TCSA
CATEGORY WATER INTAKE
TYPOLOGY CONVEYORS
DESCRIPTION
TC screw conveyor has been designed for the transportation of sludge and screened material. It consists of a sturdy metal sheet channel provided, on the forward end, with a top loading hopper and on the opposite side end with a discharge opening, a tubular shaft, on which a screw with constant diameter and pitch is welded, and a driving gear motor. The screw, rotating around its axis, pushes the material toward the discharge end. The type TCSA, consisting of a central shaftless screw, can be also supplied. This type is particularly recommended in case of filamentous solid materials. Both models can be installed in horizontal or sloping position (TCI, TCISA). On request, the channel can be closed by the use of suitable steel covers in order to guarantee hygiene and safety. For special requirements, it is also possible to have a conveyor with the screw completely tubed; this type of execution is required if considerable inclinations are concerned. The standard construction is in carbon steel protected by hot dip galvanization. On request it is possible to produce metallic parts in stainless steel.
