Screw Conveyor
Standard screw conveyors are made for simple conveying duties and straightforward applications. The real strength of our company, however, is our ability to produce individually designed units that include features to overcome awkward installations, materials that are difficult to handle, or include performance or process functions beyond simple conveying. Some requirements may be concerned with aspects of hygiene and cleanability, others with bulk solids that have poor or delicate conveying properties. Shriram screw conveyors can be made fully compliant with IS and BIS Standards if required.
Shrirams’ individually designed units can also include features to deal with:
- Materials at extreme temperatures (high or low)
- Materials that contain lumps
- Materials that require high containment
- Highly corrosive materials
- Systems operating under pressure or vacuum
Whatever the conveying problem Shriraam will undertake an expert assessment and provide the most practical solution.
