Flexible Screw Conveyor for Abrasive Sand Structure

The Flexible Screw Conveyor for Abrasive Sand consists of a drive device, flexible conveying pipe, spiral blades, inlet and outlet ports, and a support frame. The overall structure is compact, occupies a small area, and can flexibly move through narrow spaces in the workshop, especially suitable for the dense equipment layout of abrasive sand processing workshops.

Drive System: As the power core, it is equipped with a reducer and coupling to accurately adjust the screw speed to control the conveying volume.

Flexible Conveying Pipe: Made of high-strength rubber hose, it can flexibly deform according to the installation angle, is wear-resistant and durable, and can be used in harsh environments.

Spiral Blades: Made of high-chromium alloy or wear-resistant ceramic coating material, the shaftless spiral blades can withstand the continuous scouring of sharp abrasive sand particles, extending the service life.

Inlet and Outlet Ports:  The large-diameter design of the inlet port is adapted to the size of abrasive sand particles, significantly improving feeding efficiency and preventing material accumulation and blockage; the outlet port can be fine-tuned according to the specifications of the downstream equipment interface.

How does the Flexible Screw Conveyor for Abrasive Sand work?

The core of the Flexible Screw Conveyor for Abrasive Sand achieves material transfer through the coordinated action of power drive, spiral propulsion, and sealed conveying. The diesel model is powered by a diesel engine, and the electric model is powered by a variable frequency motor. After the speed is adjusted by the reducer and coupling, it drives the wear-resistant spiral blades to rotate inside the flexible conveying pipe. The material enters through a large-diameter inlet and is propelled along the pipe by rotating blades.  It is then conveyed at different angles through an adjustable-angle conveying pipe, and finally discharged from the outlet that connects to the downstream equipment.

Flexible Screw Conveyor for Abrasive Sand Technical Parameters

Flexible Screw Conveyor for Abrasive Sand Customer Cases

As the original manufacturer of Flexible Screw Conveyors for Abrasive Sand, we always focus on in-depth non-standard customization, providing one-on-one technical solutions for our customers, successfully achieving high-speed, wear-resistant, and sealed conveying of various abrasive sands.

Small Quartz Sand Processing Plant:  Mainly engaged in the processing of refined quartz sand. Previously, the process of conveying screened quartz sand to the finished product warehouse relied on manual labor. We customized one Φ159 type abrasive sand flexible screw conveyor with a conveying length of 8 meters and a lifting height of 4 meters, directly connecting the screening machine outlet and the finished product warehouse inlet; achieving automated continuous conveying without manual intervention.

Large Sandblasting Treatment Plant: Undertakes sandblasting and rust removal services for bridges and ship components. Previously, fixed pipe conveyors were used, but due to the dense equipment and numerous columns in the workshop, the pipe layout was limited, resulting in multiple conveying dead ends. We provided four customized abrasive sand flexible screw conveyors, using flexible wear-resistant rubber hoses that can flexibly avoid obstacles in the workshop; the conveying path is optimized according to the workshop layout, perfectly adapting to complex layouts with no conveying dead ends.

National Abrasive Products Enterprise: Produces grinding wheels, sandpaper, and other products, requiring the conveying of various abrasives such as silicon carbide sand and corundum sand. Different types of abrasives need to be strictly separated to avoid cross-contamination. Using multiple fixed conveyors for different abrasives resulted in a large equipment footprint and a crowded workshop layout; switching between abrasive types was difficult to clean, and residual abrasives easily led to product purity not meeting standards. We provided six mobile abrasive sand flexible screw conveyors, equipped with universal wheels and quick-connect interfaces, allowing a single device to be flexibly switched to different raw material warehouses and production lines.

What is the maximum length of the Flexible Screw Conveyor for Abrasive Sand?

The single-unit conveying length of the flexible screw conveyor for abrasive sand varies depending on working conditions and drive capacity. In the vertical conveying direction, the lifting height can reach up to 5 meters, effectively achieving direct lifting of abrasive materials from a low position to a high position. In the horizontal conveying direction, the maximum single-unit length can reach 30 meters, meeting the planar layout requirements of most production lines. When the process requires longer distance conveying, the system can be flexibly expanded through a series connection design. This involves connecting multiple conveyors end-to-end for relay conveying, thus overcoming the limitations of a single unit's length.

What is the price of a Flexible Screw Conveyor for Abrasive Sand?

As a direct manufacturer, our flexible screw conveyor for abrasive sand starts at $50, with the specific price calculated based on customized requirements. Key factors affecting the price include conveying length, pipe diameter specifications, wear-resistant material selection, motor power, and whether special accessories such as anti-clogging and sealing devices are required. We adhere to a factory-direct supply model, eliminating the markup of intermediate distributors, while offering both standardized production and customized services. All equipment includes a basic warranty and free technical solution design, ensuring transparent pricing with no hidden costs, allowing customers to obtain high-quality equipment suitable for abrasive sand conveying conditions at a high cost-performance ratio.
