Flexible screw conveyor accommodates range of sources

Capable of receiving materials from multiple outlets of feeders, grinders, blenders and other process equipment, the Flexicon flexible screw conveyor with a trough hopper features an extended-length charging adapter that exposes 45 in. of the flexible screw rotating within an inclined U-shaped trough to charge material entering the hopper at any point. As it rotates, the flexible screw self-centers within the tube; material exits the conveyor below the drive point, avoiding contact with the bearings or seals. The hopper is equipped with a stainless steel grate that prevents oversized particles from entering the conveyor.
