What is a Grain Tubular Screw Conveyor?

Grain Tubular Screw Conveyor features a fully enclosed cylindrical tube design, using rotating helical blades to smoothly move grain from one location to another. A single unit can reach a length of 30 meters and an hourly output of up to 20 tons. It supports horizontal, inclined, and even vertical conveying. The entire machine can be customized to your site's specific processes; materials, inlet and outlet positions, helical blade thickness, and even the need for bottom rollers can all be customized. It easily adapts to different grain silo and production line layouts, making it an ideal choice for large-scale grain transfer.

What types of Grain Tubular Screw Conveyors are available?

Based on different customer needs, our Grain Tubular Screw Conveyors are available in two main categories: cylindrical tube and flexible hose. The cylindrical tube type is rigid and suitable for long-distance fixed installations; the flexible hose type is flexible and can be bent flexibly, meeting the needs of multi-point unloading and operation in confined spaces.

Circular Tubular Screw Conveyor:Utilizing a rigid, seamless steel pipe shell, this robust structure offers excellent sealing and is suitable for stationary, long-distance conveying, particularly ideal for grains like wheat and corn that are whole and have low abrasion. It can be installed horizontally or at steep angles, preventing spillage and dust generation.

Hose-Type Screw Conveyor:Employing highly wear-resistant hoses, this flexible conveyor is commonly used in space-constrained environments or where multiple unloading points are required, such as unloading bulk trucks or loading/unloading simple grain silos. Lightweight and easily movable, it can be quickly deployed to different work sites, making it particularly suitable for temporary transfer of small batches of various grains.

What are the advantages of a Grain Tubular Screw Conveyor?

The Grain Tubular Screw Conveyor excels at horizontal, inclined, and vertical multi-angle conveying, ensuring grain remains intact, without spillage or dust overflow. Its low energy consumption, long-distance transport, and high-capacity operation make it a core transfer device in grain silos, feed mills, breweries, and similar settings.

Sealed and Dust-Free:The fully sealed tube body prevents dust leakage, ensuring a safe working environment.

Long-Life Design:Wear-resistant spiral blades and intermediate hanger bearings result in long maintenance cycles and low operating costs.

Wide-Angle Conveying:Allows for operation at any angle from 0-90°, saving space.

Flexible Customization:Length, inlet/outlet ports, and materials can all be designed to meet specific needs.

How ​​Does the Grain Tubular Screw Conveyor Work?

A motor-driven reducer rotates a shaft with spiral blades within the sealed circular tube. Grains enter through the inlet and are propelled axially along the tube wall by the thrust of the spiral blades, eventually exiting through the outlet. The entire process achieves stable and continuous conveying through the balance between blade thrust and material gravity.

Powdered Grains: Corn Flour, Wheat Flour, Whole Wheat Flour, Rice Flour

Grain Tubular Screw Conveyor Customer Case

In June 2025, a large Russian grain depot needed a long-distance, high-capacity grain conveyor line between its newly built flat warehouse and deep-processing workshop. The client adopted our 30-meter long cylindrical screw conveyor to transport corn, requiring a minimum of 15 tons per hour. We provided a non-standard customized solution, thickening the screw blades, adding two sets of suspension bearings in the middle, and specially designing the inlet and outlet according to the silo bottom height. The output stabilized at 18-20 tons/hour, with continuous operation without blockages or leakage, and an efficiency increase of 40% compared to the original auger.

How to choose a suitable Grain Tubular Screw Conveyor?

When choosing a suitable Grain Tubular Screw Conveyor, we must first determine our needs, considering the conveying distance, output, and site conditions to ensure the selection of a conveyor of appropriate height.

Confirm material characteristics: Grain type, bulk density, moisture content, and fragility.

Define conveying parameters: Total length, maximum lifting height, and target output.

Determine the installation environment: Indoor/Outdoor, horizontal/inclined/vertical, and whether there are bends.

Special requirements: Stainless steel construction, explosion-proof motor, wear-resistant coating, etc.
