A screw conveyor, also known as an auger conveyor, is a mechanical device used to transport bulk materials such as powders, granules, and pellets. It consists of a helical trough or channel with a rotating screw that moves the material through the trough via a continuous turning motion. This type of conveyor is commonly employed in industries like agriculture, mining, food processing, and waste management for efficient material handling.
