What is a Flexible Screw Conveyor?
A flexible screw conveyor is a type of bulk material handling equipment designed to transport various materials efficiently.
Unlike traditional rigid conveyors, the flexible design allows for a variety of configurations, making them ideal for constricted spaces.
At SKE, we offer high-quality flexible screw conveyors that adapt to your processing needs.
How Flexible Screw Conveyors Work
Flexible screw conveyors operate by using a helical screw, which rotates within a flexible tube. The rotation of the screw lifts the material up the tube to the discharge point. This system is highly adaptable and can convey materials at various angles and distances. To learn more about the mechanics, check out our detailed technical principles guide.
