Plastic sheet screw conveyors are used to convey materials such as plastic sheets or films in the plastic processing, packaging and manufacturing industries. The conveyor usually consists of a rotating spiral blade in a trough or tube, which can move the plastic sheet along the length of the conveyor, which can reduce manual handling and improve production efficiency while protecting the surface of the sheet from damage.
Working principle of plastic sheet screw conveyor
The plastic sheets are first put into the feed port of the conveyor. Once the plastic sheets enter the conveyor, the spiral blades begin to rotate, pushing the plastic sheets forward along the pipe of the conveyor. When the plastic sheets reach the discharge port, they are discharged from the conveyor to enter the next processing stage or packaging process.
Advantages of plastic sheet screw conveyor
Wide range of materials: Suitable for plastic sheets of various specifications and thicknesses, including PVC, PET, PP, etc.
Uniform conveying: The screw conveyor can evenly convey plastic sheets to ensure that there will be no blockage or interruption during the conveying process.
High degree of automation: It can be used in conjunction with other automation equipment to realize the automation of the production line.
Good sealing: It can effectively prevent the entry of dust and debris to ensure the cleanliness of the conveying environment.
Application of plastic sheet screw conveyor
Plastic sheet screw conveyor has a wide range of application scenarios in various industrial fields, including but not limited to the following aspects:
Plastic processing industry: used to convey raw materials or finished products such as plastic sheets, plastic sheet, plastic particles, etc., suitable for the conveying and processing of plastic product production lines.
Packaging industry: used to convey plastic sheet or films in packaging materials, such as plastic bags, packaging films, etc., to realize the conveying operation of automated packaging production lines.
Food processing industry: suitable for conveying plastic sheet or sheet in food packaging, such as bread bags, potato chip packaging, etc., to ensure the smooth operation of food production lines.
Pharmaceutical industry: used to convey plastic sheet or films in pharmaceutical packaging, including pharmaceutical packaging, medical device packaging, etc., to ensure the production efficiency of pharmaceutical production lines.
Chemical industry: suitable for conveying plastic sheet or particles in chemical raw materials, such as plastic particles, plastic powder, etc., for conveying and mixing operations in chemical production lines.
Selection suggestions for plastic sheet screw conveyor
When selecting a screw conveyor for plastic sheets, consider the following factors:
Material ompatibility:Ensure the screw conveyor is made from materials that are compatible with the type of plastic being handled (e.g., stainless steel for food-grade plastics).
Screw design:Choose a screw design (e.g., standard, tapered, or segmented) that minimizes damage to the plastic sheets and allows for smooth flow.
Diameter and length:Select the appropriate diameter and length based on the volume of material to be transported and the available space.
Incline angle:Determine the required incline angle, as this affects the efficiency and capacity of the conveyor.
Drive system:Consider the type of drive system (e.g., electric motor) and ensure it provides adequate torque for the application.
Speed control:Look for options with variable speed control to adjust the flow rate as needed.
Plastic sheet screw conveyors are widely used in plastic processing production lines and can be used to convey plastic sheet of various shapes and sizes, such as plastic particles, sheet, films, etc. It has a simple design and compact structure, can efficiently convey plastic sheet, improve production efficiency and reduce labor costs.
