'''Screw Compactors''' are single machine transportation, de-watering and compress solids.. In this way the solids volume is greatly reduced. The structural and functional simplicity of the compactor design in the form of shaftless flighting, allows for the absence of internal supports and minimum maintenance. The clever design of this equipment allows it to be used in many fields. | |||
A sieve at the spiral end of the screw coupled with a discharge closure unit creates the dewatering and compressing action of the solids. The liquid is pressed out through a specially designed tube. The machine is designed for intermittent working. | |||
==Typical Designs== | |||
Screw Compactors consist of a conveyor trough in stainless steel, a shaftless extra-heavy-duty spiral in carbon steel, a compacting and de-watering discharge module, a return duct for squeezed out water, and a drive unit suitable for the application. | |||
==Application== | |||
*Municipal waste water treatment plants for dewatering of screenings after coarse and fine screen | |||
*Industrial waste treatment plants | |||
*Paper mills | |||
*Tanneries | |||
*Chemicals | |||
*Abattoirs | |||
*Food processing ( vegetables , fruit , fish , etc..; in some cases process-integrated use ) | |||
==Advantages== | |||
Absence of outlet end bearing and intermediate bearing assemblies | |||
No mechanical components in contact with the handled product | |||
Low speed | |||
No jamming or blocking even in the presence of fibrous products | |||
Fully enclosed pollution-free and odour-free machine | |||
Horizontal or vertical outlet | |||
Possibility of discharging into plastic bags | |||
