HORIZONTAL SCREW CONVEYOR
Description
Horizontal Screw Conveyor Manufacturer in Ahmedabad.
Orevia Engineering designs and manufactures dependable Horizontal Screw Conveyor systems for efficient bulk-material handling across a wide range of industries. These conveyors are suitable for powders, granules, and other dry materials that need controlled movement over short or medium horizontal distances.
Built for practical plant operation, the conveyor can be configured with a U-trough or O-tube construction depending on the material and application. Its enclosed design helps maintain a cleaner working environment while supporting smooth, consistent material flow.
As a Horizontal Screw Conveyor Manufacturer in Ahmedabad, Orevia Engineering focuses on application-specific construction, reliable drive arrangements, and easy maintenance. The company also serves customers looking for a Horizontal Screw Conveyor Supplier in Gujarat, Horizontal Screw Conveyor Distributor in India, and Horizontal Screw Conveyor Wholesaler in Gujarat.

⢠Configurable length and capacity to suit different production needs.
⢠Variable-speed operation for better control of material flow.
⢠Suitable for demanding industrial environments and varied bulk materials.
Working Principle
A horizontal screw conveyor transfers material through a rotating helical flight mounted on a central shaft. Material enters through the inlet and is progressively pushed toward the discharge point as the screw rotates.
Infeed
Bulk material enters through the inlet or hopper and settles into the conveyor trough before conveying begins.
Conveying
The rotating helical flight continuously moves the material forward through the housing, providing controlled and uniform transportation.
Rate Control
A geared motor drives the screw, while an optional VFD can adjust the RPM to achieve the required conveying rate for different materials and production conditions.
Discharge
Material leaves through the outlet and can be directed toward downstream processing equipment, storage units or other handling systems.
