A screw conveyor, alternatively known as an auger conveyor, is a mechanism that transports and elevates bulk materials using a rotating helical screw inside a trough. It is widely used in various industries for moving granular, powdered, or liquid-like substances from one location to another. The rotation of the screw conveys the material through the trough, making it an effective solution for efficient material handling and transfer processes.
