Heavy-duty tubular screw conveyor for bulk solids

Optimize your production line with a durable solution for uninterrupted bulk solids transport, designed to handle a wide range of materials, ensuring longevity and seamless integration into both batch and continuous operations.

Conveys and Processes Bulk Solid Materials

The Heavy-Duty Tubular Screw Conveyor TP-TE from WAMGROUP is engineered for medium to extra heavy-duty industrial applications, particularly in mineral processing, glass manufacturing, and cement production. Constructed from carbon steel with a suitable surface finish, this conveyor features a tubular trough with an inlet and outlet spout, helicoid screw flighting, and adjustable shaft seals, ensuring durability and ease of maintenance. With the ability to handle solid, powder, and granular materials, it supports both batch and continuous operations, integrating seamlessly into existing production lines with its flexible design.

The TP-TE is equipped with a robust gear motor and offers various drive options, such as direct and chain transmission, to optimize performance for different processing needs. Known for coping with demanding environments, it provides reliable service in the transportation of sand, bentonite, and other industrial materials. While not suitable for food applications, it excels in enhancing material flow efficiency, reducing process downtime, and ensuring smooth operation under tough conditions. Customization options include additional spouts, inspection hatches, and rotation indicators, allowing it to meet specific operational requirements.
