MSC Trough Screw Conveyors are a customized version of the CA modular trough screw conveyor system. They are used in the flour milling industry, especially for conveying cereal grains, flour, and by-products such as bran. MSC Screw Conveyors are manufactured from carbon steel with food-grade surface finishing. They are made up from a U-shape trough that is equipped with at least one outlet spout, an end plate at each trough end, helicoid screw flighting welded on a centre pipe with a coupling bush at each end, two end bearing assemblies complete with shaft sealing unit, a number of intermediate hanger bearings with self-lubricating bushes depending on the overall length of the screw conveyor, and bolted trough covers. Furthermore, MSC Trough Screw Conveyors are equipped with a gear motor that suits the application. MSC Trough Screw Conveyors come in a light-duty design only and they are available with ATEX, zone 22 certification.
