Conveyor Screws

Screw conveyor flights are the helical blades that rotate within the trough, efficiently moving material along the conveyor, and pitch is the distance between flights. At IBT, we offer a wide range of flighting and pitch options to perfectly match your specific application:

Standard Flights: For specialized material handling, choose from various styles, such as short pitch and stepped pitch.
Double Flight: Need increased capacity? Double flight options move more material per revolution.
Specialty Flights: For unique challenges, we offer specialty flights like ribbon flights and cone screw designs. Tapered flights are also available.
Quick Detachable Options: Minimize downtime with quick detachable screw flights, allowing for faster shaft and screw removal.
Wear and Hard-Surfaced Flights: Conveying highly abrasive materials? Our wear and hard-surfaced flight options extend service life and reduce replacement needs.

Shafts and Bolts

Conveyor coupling shafts join individual lengths of conveyor screws. Close couplings adjoin conveyor screws where no hanger is required. In selecting a shaft, ensuring it has the durability and strength to transmit the expected horsepower and torque is key.

Shafts are available in drilled and self-locking options to fit your needs. Coupling bolts, also known as gudgeon bolts, connect the shaft to the pipe. They work as a failsafe mechanism to prevent further damage to the system. The most commonly used grades are two and five.

Hangers and Hanger Bearings

Located between screw sections, along the length of a screw conveyor, hangers provide adjustable support, maintain alignment, and serve as bearing surfaces within the high-vibration conditions of a screw conveyor system. Hangers and hanger bearings are available in various styles and sizes. Hanger bearings materials include wood, UHMW, bronze, graphite, and hard iron.

Troughs

Order from a selection of heavy-duty troughs in standard “U”, tubular, rectangular, or flared designs. Each design is built specifically for the task at hand to best accommodate the conveyed material━whether that’s draining liquids, handling abrasive materials, protecting against weather or dust, allowing for accessibility for sanitation purposes, or insulating hot or cold materials.

Trough Ends, Seals, & End Bearings

IBT supplies a selection of conveyor screw trough ends, seals, and bearings to perfectly match your screw conveyor needs. These components play a vital role in supporting the screw and trough, ensuring smooth operation and material flow.

Trough Ends: Choose from various styles, including outside, inside, flared, and discharge ends. Some are available with optional feet for added stability.
Seals: We offer a variety of seals to prevent material leakage and contamination, keeping your operation clean and efficient.
End Bearings: Select from single or double-bearing pedestals to optimize support for your screw shaft.

Trough Covers, Clamps, & Shrouds

Trough covers keep material inside the trough and protect it from outside elements. They are also a safety measure for workers, preventing injuries and keeping them clear of the moving parts inside the conveyor trough.

Additionally, IBT offers mild steel, stainless steel, or zinc-plated clamps to securely fasten your chosen covers to the trough. The optimal clamp style will depend on the cover design and ease of access for installation and removal.

Supporting Feet & Saddles

Saddles and feet support, align and secure troughs within screw conveyor systems. Trough feet are used at trough joints, while trough saddles are welded on to support troughs where there is no joint.

Inlets and Discharge Spouts & Gates

Fixed spouts with slide gates allow the distribution of material to be controlled. Standard discharge spouts are available in several designs for either conveyor trough or tubular housing. They can be operated manually or by remote controls via electric, hydraulic, or pneumatic gate options.
