Horizontal Screw Feeder
A horizontal screw feeder is an industrial device used for the stable conveying and quantitative feeding of powders, granules, and small lumps. It is widely used in the plastics processing, chemical powder, building materials, and food industries.
This equipment adopts a horizontally installed spiral conveyor structure. The spiral blades rotate in a closed trough to achieve continuous and uniform material conveying, which is suitable for industrial production systems with high requirements for flow stability.
Working principle
The Tapered Single Shaft Screw Feeder equipment is driven by a motor to rotate the screw shaft in a horizontal tank, and the material moves continuously along the axial direction under the push of the screw blades.
During operation:
- The material enters the spiral groove through the feed inlet.
- Spiral blades propel materials forward.
- The conveying capacity can be adjusted by speed or frequency conversion system.
- Achieve continuous or quantitative stable feeding
Applicable materials
This equipment is suitable for a variety of industrial materials:
- PVC/PE/PP plastic powder
- Mineral fillers such as calcium carbonate and talc
- Chemical Powders and Additives
- Food-grade powders and additives
- Cement, gypsum and building material powder
- Recycled plastic powder and mixture
