Ideal for OEM’S in screw conveyor, screw presses, decanter, centrifuge, food processing equipment, agitators, screw piles industries to produce highly accurate and consistent helices
Helix Outer Diameter: 50mm to 600mm
Helix Pitch: up to 600mm
Plate thickness:
- Up to 16mm in mild carbon steel and stainless steel
- Up to 10mm thick Hardox 450 and other abrasion resistant plates
Helix Flight Forming Machines are specifically designed to form sectional helices cut from flat plate. Our advanced forming technology allows simple safe operation while delivering true form helices at the lowest whole of life cost per helix.
Guidance above subject to below conditions and limitations
- Indicated machine ranges are based on 250Mpa Yield Strength Plate & range of sizes will affected by alternate grades.
- Maximum Pitch is a function of diameter to fit the shaft and will be limited accordingly
- Extended Diameter and pitch range may be achieved if flange width is a less than 25% of Diameter.
- Pitch may be limited for material thickness to thin to hold form
- Forming Abrasion-resistant material may require special high wear forming plates
- Forming of abrasion-resistant material may be limited by the forming force of the machine, limitations in pitch due to increased spring back and limitations of the material to stretch during forming without cracking
- The maximum achievable plate thickness is subject to both pitch to shaft diameter ratio and the maximum flange width cross-sectional area for respective machine.
