An screw feeder machine is a mechanical device used to transport bulk materials upward through an enclosed tube or trough using a rotating helical screw. It provides continuous, controlled, and efficient material handling in industrial processes.
It is widely used for conveying powders, granules, grains, cement, sand, chemicals, food products, fertilizers, and plastic pellets in agriculture, food processing, pharmaceuticals, construction, mining, and chemical industries.
Bulk material enters through the inlet hopper. The electric motor drives the screw via the gearbox. As the screw rotates, the helical flights move the material upward along the casing until it reaches the discharge outlet, ensuring a continuous flow.
The screw feeder machine is an efficient material handling system that improves productivity, reduces manual labour, and ensures smooth transfer of materials between different stages of industrial production.
