Standard Pitch, Single Flight |
|
|
|
 |
|
Conveyor screws with pitch equal to screw diameter are considered standard. They are suitable for a wide range of materials in most conventional applications. |
|
|
|
Half Pitch, Single Flight |
|
|
|
 |
|
Similar to short pitch, except pitch is reduced to 1/2 standard pitch. Useful for vertical or inclined applications, for screw feeders & for handling extremely fluid materials. |
|
|
|
Variable Pitch, Single Flight |
|
|
|
 |
|
Flights have increasing pitch & are used in screw feeders to provide uniform with- drawal of fine, free flowing materials over the full length of the inlet opening. |
|
|
|
Tapered, Standard Pitch, Single Flight |
|
|
 |
|
Screw Flights increase from 2/3 to full diameter. Used in screw feeders to provide uniform with- drawal of lumpy materials. Generally equivalent to and more economical than variable pitch. |
|
|
|
Cut & Fold Flight, Standard Pitch |
|
|
|
 |
|
Folded flights segments lift and spill the material. Partially retarded flow provides thorough mixing action. Excellent for heating, cooling or aerating light substances. |
|
|
|
Standard Pitch With Paddles |
|
|
|
 |
|
Adjustable paddles positioned between screw flights oppose flow to provide gentle but through mixing action. |
