ANALYSIS OF TECHNOLOGICAL PROCESSES AND STRUCTURAL FEATURES OF SCREW CONVEYORS

Screw conveyors are used in various sectors of the national economy - heavy industry, construction, agricultural production, etc. They are intended for the transfer of various bulk and artificial materials. In the agrarian sector, as a rule, screw conveyors are used. They are intended for moving in the horizontal, sloping and vertical directions of products of agrarian production, for example, root crops, potatoes, grains, fodder mixtures, mineral and organic fertilizers, etc. On the basis of their design features, they can simultaneously perform adjacent operations and functions - mixing products, dispensing materials, separating impurities, etc. On the basis of the advantages and disadvantages of the work of screw mechanisms, a constructive-functional scheme of the improved root canal conveyor was proposed.
