SS-Type continuous metal spirals

Continuous metal spirals, also known as screw conveyors, are essential components in many industries for the efficient transport of materials. SS-Type metal augers represent one of the most advanced and versatile solutions available on the market.

Below, we will explore the main features, advantages and applications of SS-Type continuous metal augers.

Characteristics of SS-Type continuous metal spirals

SS-Type metal spirals are manufactured using high-quality materials such as Fe 510 and stainless steel 304. These materials guarantee durability and strength, making the spirals suitable for a wide range of operating conditions.

Used materials:

  • Stainless steel 304 (SS 304): stainless steel 304 is chosen for applications where corrosion resistance is crucial, such as in the food, chemical and pharmaceutical industries. This material offers excellent resistance to rust and corrosion, ensuring a long service life even in aggressive environments.
  • Fe 510: this steel is known for its strength and durability. It is an ideal material for applications requiring mechanical strength and structural stability.

Sizes and specifications

SS-Type spirals are available in standard sizes ready for delivery, with the possibility of customised sizes on request. Specific dimensions can be found in the product brochure. Key features include:

  • Outer diameter (Ø D): see product brochure for specific dimensions.
  • Pitch (P): constant or variable, depending on application requirements.
  • Inside diameter (Ø d): consult product brochure for specific dimensions.
  • Thickness (Spp): on request, to suit specific application needs.

Right (RH) or left (LH) pitch

SS-Type spirals are available with either right (RH) or left (LH) pitch, offering further options to suit specific operational needs. The ability to choose the pitch direction is crucial for efficient material transport.

Advantages of SS-Type continuous metal spirals

SS-Type metal spirals offer numerous advantages over other material transport solutions. Some of the main advantages include:

  1. Corrosion resistance: the use of 304 stainless steel guarantees excellent corrosion resistance, making these spirals ideal for chemically aggressive environments.
  2. Robustness and durability: the choice of high-quality materials such as Fe 510 and stainless steel ensures a long service life and exceptional resistance to mechanical stress.
  3. Transport efficiency: the design of the spirals ensures continuous and uniform transport of materials, minimising waste and blockages.
  4. Versatility: standard and customised size options, together with a choice of left or right pitch, make SS-Type augers suitable for a wide range of industries, from food processing to chemicals and mining.
  5. Ease of maintenance: the spirals are designed for easy installation and maintenance, reducing downtime and operating costs.
  6. Flexibility in use: the possibility of adapting the size and pitch of the augers allows a wide flexibility in applications, enabling specific operational needs to be met.

Applications of SS-Type continuous metal spirals

SS-Type continuous metal spirals find application in numerous industrial sectors due to their efficiency and versatility. Below are some of the main applications:

food industry - SS-Type continuous metal spirals
