OverviewThe TRC screw conveyor, designed by Silos Córdoba, is a trough-type screw conveyor intended for bulk material handling in industrial environments. The modular design allows adaptation to different capacities and installation layouts.
CapacityConveyors are sized to meet the required throughput for each product. A 45% filling rate is used in capacity calculations to avoid overestimation.
ReliabilityThe simple mechanical layout, selection of quality components and low-speed operation contribute to long service life and dependable operation.
SafetyIntermediate bearing supports are fully covered and maintenance-free. Shaft-mounted gear motors reduce the risk of material entrapment associated with chain or belt drives. Additional safety features can be supplied to meet specific regulatory requirements.
FlexibilityModular construction enables varied lengths and capacities, and facilitates future upgrades or reconfiguration.
FinishStandard sheet galvanization (600 g/m²) provides high resistance to atmospheric corrosion. Optional special paint finishes and stainless steel construction are available.
SuitabilityThe TRC can be customized for different products and plant conditions, including material, feed/discharge arrangements and screw configurations.
