FEM 2.121 - Screw Conveyors for Bulk Materials

FEM 2.121-EN

Recommendations for the design of horizontal and slightly inclined screw conveyors

This recommendation only applies to the screw conveyor, horizontal or inclined position (up to approximately 20 degree), with regular and continuous supply of the bulk material.
