Pipe screws conveyors
Scheuch COMPONENTS develops and manufactures pipe screw conveyors for industrial applications. Our specialists support you from the first enquiry through to commissioning, with personal consultation, in-depth process know-how and test facilities for material trials.
The right pipe screw conveyor for your system
Pipe screw conveyors are the right choice when bulk materials in industry and agriculture need to be conveyed efficiently and cleanly. Their closed body allows a wide variety of materials to be transported dust-free. Pipe screw conveyors are also particularly well suited for steep conveying, as they keep the loss of conveyed material to a minimum.
We offer you the precisely fitting design for your individual system.
In addition to conveying, pipe screw conveyors also cover various process steps such as shutting off, discharging, dosing and compressing.
Our product range also includes wear protection concepts and ATEX designs.

What is a pipe screw conveyor?
A pipe screw conveyor is a screw conveyor in which the screw pipe is completely closed. It features a round cross-section, which distinguishes this type of screw conveyor from a pipe screw conveyor. In general, it operates in the same way as a regular screw conveyor and also consists of a screw thread and shaft, a drive, and an inlet and outlet.
Pipe screw conveyors from Scheuch COMPONENTS boast a conveying output or throughput volume of between 0.25 and 610 m³/h, depending on the model and requirements.
Special features of a pipe screw conveyor
Thanks to their closed housing, pipe screw conveyors are suitable for conveying a wide variety of materials. The bulk materials can be moved not only horizontally but also up inclines.
Advantages of a pipe screw conveyor:
Closed, dust-free transport
Ability to convey materials of different consistencies
Transport across inclines/steep conveyors possible
Specific seal design for the area of application
Designed for 24/7 continuous operation
Scheuch COMPONENTS provides pipe screw conveyors up to 13 metres long
Robust design for maximum loads in continuous operation
Flexible system integration using 3D planning
Short delivery times due to largely standardized modular design
Just like the trough screw conveyors and special and custom-made screw conveyors in our range, the pipe screw conveyors we manufacture stand out for their robust design and thus high functionality with large conveying volumes.
Areas of applications for pipe screw conveyors
Where are pipe screw conveyors used?
Where are pipe screw conveyors used? screw conveyors are particularly well suited to conveying across steep inclines, as they are able to minimize the amount of conveyed material that is lost. They are mainly used in conveying systems in agriculture, the food industry and production, and can transport conveyed material in the following consistencies:
Powdery
Fine-grained
Coarse-grained
Lumpy
…
In addition to purely conveying, pipe screw conveyors can also be used for discharging, dosing (with a dosing screw) or compressing bulk materials such as grains or minerals. They are also able to discharge products made of various materials, such as wood, plastic or metal.
APPLICATIONS
Wood
Wood-based materials
Chemicals and pharmaceuticals
Metal
Plastics
Recycling
Minerals
Food
Animal feed
Which industries are pipe screw conveyors suitable for?
Thanks to their robust and durable materials, pipe screw conveyors are suitable for many areas. Because the conveying space is strictly separated from the surroundings, they are used above all in applications where occupational safety as well as fire and explosion protection play an important role.
Pipe screw conveyors are used in pharmaceutical companies, in recycling, in agriculture and in animal feed plants. These closed transport systems are also used wherever food is produced.
Depending on the specific application, you can choose the right pipe screw conveyor model at Scheuch COMPONENTS, for example with individually adapted inlet and outlet.
