With the Van Beek shaftless screw conveyors you can transport sticky, wet, coarse or irregular products without the risk of blockage or sticking.
Sticky solid bulk materials such as magnesium as a waste product, tend to stick to the central inner tube of a screw conveyor. Shaftless screw conveyors do not have this problem because there is no inner tube, also called a shaft, as only the spiral is used to transport the bulk product. This makes the shaftless screw conveyor the perfect solution for elevating and transporting ‘difficult’ products.
Compared to a shaft screw conveyor, shaftless spiral conveyors are ideal for bridging distances of 10 metres or greater without an intermediate support.
The screw is supported over its entire length by a wear-resistant plastic lining. The shaftless conveyor also performs well in a limited space, even with a considerable difference in height: a feed angle of up to 90° is possible.
