Traditionally, shafted conveyors were used to move industrial materials around in the mines and other businesses. Now, shaftless conveyors are gaining in popularity because they offer long term cost savings.
Shaftless Screw Conveyor Systems
We design, manufacture and supply shaftless screw conveyors. They are engineered to be more robust than conventional shaft conveyors. Because you need a strong solution to move industrial materials around and our conveyors are Built to Last®.

Why Are Shaftless Conveyor Systems Becoming More Popular?
The Old Way vs The New Way
- Shafted screw conveyors
- Thinner spirals surround a shaft
- Maintenance requires you to remove motor and gear box
- More energy is required
- Shaftless screw conveyors
- Thicker spirals that last longer
- Maintenance time is cut by half – fully portable
- Power saving
Spiral Tech Shaftless Screw Conveyors
- Also known as auger conveyors
- Used in a variety of industries, e.g. coal, mining, agriculture. Many niche industries also use spiral systems to move all types of materials around
- Most materials can be moved with a spiral conveyor system, even materials that are not easily moved by conventional means e.g. hazardous, sticky or aggregate materials
- Manufactured in high quality tensile steel for durability
- Thick, hard wearing spirals – 160 to 560 mm in diameter
- Material handling capacities of up to 126 cubic meters per hour
- Maintenance-friendly – easy and portable, results in less down-time
- Enable you to convey more material at a lower speed – less wear and tear
- Can be fitted into standard and purpose-built conveyor systems
Options
We can use several shaftless spirals to create a conveying system for your workplace. The conveying system can lead from one place to another, e.g. we can make a conveyor that moves from a hopper to a silo.
- Optional materials can be used, such as Hardox, 304 / 306 stainless steel or Tungsten tipping, for abrasive, corrosive or special material handling
- Sizes can be custom-made to your requirements
- Various extras are available, such as bins and hoppers
