Screw conveyor is bulk material handling equipment, which usually consists of a tube containing either a spiral blade coiled around a shaft (sometimes called an auger), driven at one end and held at the other, it is widely used in chemical, metallurgy, paper making, and construction industries, etc. Below you will see its daily maintenance methods:

1. When operate the screw conveyor, bearings, gears and transmission chain should be added lubricating oil regularly.
2. After machine stops, the spiral blade wear condition should be checked, if wears seriously, please repair welding.
