Newton Conveyors' Sectional Flight Conveyor Screws consist of individual flight segments which are cold formed from separate flat plate blanks and then butt welded to form the helix.
The flights are anchored securely at each end of the conveyor pipe by formed steel
lugs and with carefully spaced intermediate welds. For severe conveying applications, the flights may be continuously welded to the conveyor pipe on one or both sides. Sectional
flights, unlike helicoid flighting, have uniform thickness at the outer edge and inside root. Sectional conveyors are available in a wider range of sizes, materials and thickness. ( See Sectional Screw Dimensions Table ) All
Newton Conveyors' Sectional Flight Conveyor Screws are available in stainless steel. They may also be furnished in abrasion resistant steel may be hard surfaced for longer service life. Virtually any combination of flight thickness, diameter,
pitch and materials can be furnished to suit any conveying application. As with helicoid screws, pipe ends are bushed with internal collars. The collars are pressure fitted, plug welded and reamed for the
appropriate coupling diameter. Coupling bolt holes are jig drilled for perfect alignment.
Sectional flight conveyor screws are fully interchangeable with standard helicoid conveyors. (See
Helicoid & Sectional Comparison Table ) Numerous deviations from standard are available for virtually any applications. For description of basic flight types, including most
common flight modifications and pitch deviations. ( See
