DescriptionTC screw conveyor has been designed for the transportation of sludge and screened material. It consists of a sturdy metal sheet channel provided, on the forward end, with a top loading hopper and on the opposite side end with a discharge opening, a tubular shaft on which a screw with constant diameter and pitch is welded, and a driving gear motor. The screw, rotating around its axis, pushes the material toward the discharge end. The type TCSA, consisting of a central shaftless screw, can also be supplied and is particularly recommended for filamentous solid materials. Both models can be installed in horizontal or sloping positions (TCI, TCISA). The channel can be closed by steel covers to guarantee hygiene and safety. For steep inclinations an execution with the screw completely tubed is available. The standard construction is carbon steel with hot-dip galvanization; metallic parts can be produced in stainless steel on request.
