RA U Trough Screw Conveyor: General Characteristics and Advantages
The RA U Trough Screw Conveyor is engineered for the heavy-duty extraction and conveying of bulk powders, granules, and sluggish materials directly from under hoppers and horizontal silos. The flanged U-shaped trough design with a bolted top cover provides immediate access to the internal screw, drastically reducing cleaning and maintenance downtime.
Stainless Steel & Shaftless Auger Options
Manufactured in sizes up to Q1000 trough diameter, our U trough screw conveyors can be customized in robust carbon steel or food-grade stainless steel (AISI 304/316) to meet your plant’s exact hygiene requirements. For highly abrasive or sticky materials, RST Group can design these units completely shaftless or without intermediate hanger bearings to prevent material blockages.
