Custom Ribbon Flights

Applications of Custom Ribbon Flights

Custom ribbon flights at Reinke & Schomann provide an effective solution for the following operations.

  • Agriculture Industry: Ribbon flights are often used in grain elevators, separating and conveying grain without damaging it. They’re also great for heavy-duty threshing, removing the husks from grains like barley and wheat while protecting them from breakage or excessive damage.
  • Machine Tool Applications: RIbbon flighting is integral to the chip removal process that occurs in machine tools. We are able to provide replacement chip screws to meet the specifications of many machining centers and applications. Our team can often provide replacement screws in a more timely manner.
  • Mining & Construction Industries: Custom ribbon flights are great for conveying materials over long distances. They’re commonly found on large-scale mining operations that help move ore from one area to another. In construction applications, they transport aggregate materials like cement, gravel, soil, and other loose materials. 

Custom Screw Conveyors

A screw conveyor is an essential component in many industrial conveyor systems. They are used to move bulk material within a system’s structure while providing precise control of product movement and rate. Screw conveyors can be customized to match any application that requires transporting materials horizontally or at an incline

These custom-designed screws are used to rotate and effectively transport the material along its length. The flighted portion consists of individual blades that attach to the pipe or tube and extend outward in a spiral pattern. This configuration is necessary to keep the conveyed material from falling back out as it moves along the screw’s length. 

Reinke & Schomann is a trusted name in industrial screw conveyors, with decades of experience in manufacturing custom screw conveyor solutions. Our products are designed with durability and efficiency in mind, allowing for easy installation and maintenance while providing reliable delivery of materials over short or long distances.

Advantages of using screw conveyors

Screw conveyors at Reinke & Schomann are highly efficient at moving materials from one point to another. They have several advantages over traditional conveying methods, including:

  • Versatility: Screw conveyors can be used to move a variety of materials, such as dry bulk solids, powders, grains, and other granular materials. This makes them suitable for applications in many industries, including food processing and manufacturing. 
  • Low maintenance requirements: Screw conveyors require little regular maintenance compared with other types of conveying systems. This helps to lower operating costs and reduce the amount of downtime for maintenance.
  • Reliability: Screw conveyors are reliable, durable machines that work continuously without requiring significant repairs or replacements. This makes them ideal for companies that need a reliable conveying system. 
  • Flexibility: Screw conveyors can easily adjust or modify to accommodate different materials and production needs. They can also easily handle large volumes of material, ensuring operations run smoothly and efficiently.
