Flexible Screw Conveyor Transfer Bulk Material From front End Loader
Extreme-duty Flexicon flexible screw conveyor with purpose-built hopper transfers bulk material received from front end loaders.
Conveyor consists of a heavy-gauge stainless steel screw that rotates within an 8 in. dia. (200 mm) stainless steel tube. Since the conveyor is driven at its top end by a 20 hp (15 kW) variable speed electric motor and gear reducer, material exits the discharge housing prior to contacting any seals or bearings. The tube interior and removable screw are smooth and crevice-free, allowing rapid, thorough cleaning.
The heavy-gauge stainless steel hopper holds up to 8 tons or 200 cu ft., and provides an ample supply of material for the high capacity conveyor to run continually as a front end loader replenishes the material.
