Vertical Screw Conveyor Machine Manufacturer
What Is a Vertical Screw Conveyor?
A vertical screw conveyor is a compact material handling equipment that transports bulk materials upward in a vertical or steeply inclined direction. It operates on a simple mechanism: as the helical screw rotates inside a closed tubular casing, it continuously carries material from the lower inlet to the upper discharge point.
Unlike horizontal screw conveyors, the vertical design eliminates the need for large floor space while achieving lift heights of up to 12 meters. This makes it the ideal choice for industries where space optimization and continuous vertical conveying are critical priorities.

Features & Benefits of Vertical Screw Conveyor
Space-Saving Vertical Design: Efficiently elevates bulk materials without the long footprint of inclined or belt-based systems. Ideal for plants with limited floor space.
Continuous & Steady Material Flow: The enclosed helical screw ensures a smooth, uninterrupted discharge flow — eliminating blockage and ensuring consistent production throughput.
Dust-Sealed Enclosed Housing: The fully enclosed tubular casing prevents dust emissions, product contamination, and material spillage — meeting strict hygiene and safety norms.
Wide Range of Material Compatibility: Handles dry powders, granules, flakes, pellets, and mildly sticky products. Suitable across industries from food & pharma to cement & chemicals.
Hygienic SS304/SS316 Construction: Food-grade and pharmaceutical-grade models are available with mirror-polished interior surfaces, ensuring contamination-free operations and easy cleaning.
Low Maintenance & Energy Efficient: Fewer moving parts and a robust helical geared motor translate into lower operational costs, minimal downtime, and longer equipment life.
Customizable to Your Process: Available in a wide range of diameters, heights, and inlet/outlet configurations — fully customizable to match your plant layout and production needs.
How Does a Vertical Screw Conveyor Work?
The working principle of a vertical screw conveyor is straightforward yet highly efficient. The bulk material enters through an inlet at the bottom of the machine. As the motor drives the helical screw flight, the material is pushed upward along the spiral. The enclosed tubular casing prevents the material from falling back, ensuring continuous upward flow until it is discharged at the top outlet.
The speed of the screw and the pitch of the flight can be adjusted to control the flow rate, making it a flexible solution for varying production demands.
