Screw Conveyor Market

Global Screw Conveyor Market: Definition and Introduction

Agriculture is the most significant driving factor for the growth of developing countries. According to The World Bank, agriculture will end poverty and provide prosperity for people on a large scale.

This will not only include the production of food grains but also provide employment to people working on the fields and provide employment to manufacturers as large production of agriculture need equipment to complete the tasks quickly.    

One such piece of equipment in the agriculture sector is screw conveyors. The use of screw conveyors is widespread in the field of agriculture.

Screw conveyors have the ability to mix various products together and can break large lumps easily. They are very adjustable as they can smoothly function in congested locations.

Screw conveyor’s quality of having several inlet points and discharge points along with side gates and valves makes it extremely easy to use.  Also, screw conveyors can be designed without a center pipe too. 

Key Developments in Screw Conveyor Landscape

This is known as a shaftless screw conveyor. This conveyor can convey sluggish, wet, sticky products like biosolids and sludges.  

For instance, Conveyor Engineering & Manufacturing, a key industry player, focuses on providing solutions that would cover a wide range. The end users demand equipment that would keep the work fast-paced.

Thus, the company has equipment that is abrasion and corrosion resistant that would not need maintenance. The company has worked for gaining standard certifications. The company is FDA/USDA certified.

Another key player in the screw conveyor market, KWS Manufacturing Company, focuses on customizing applications. 

End users demand screw conveyors that would not get damaged and would last long in changing environment. Thus, the company provides screw conveyors that are totally enclosed for corrosive and hazardous environment.

Screw conveyors are primarily employed for handling various materials that have relatively good flowability.

Easy construction, design simplicity and maintenance are the key factors gaining the attraction of end-users towards the product.

Screw conveyor basically consists of various components which include drive unit, conveyor casting, inlet, hanging bearing, screw blade, inlet & outlet and others.

 Screw conveyor are utilized in various application which include feed mills, cereal processing plants, grain storage plants, chemical plants and foundry shops for mixing machines.

Various type of screw conveyors are available in the market for the end-use industries which include vertical screw conveyor, inclined screw conveyor, shaftless screw conveyor, horizontal screw conveyor, etc.

Generally, the angle of inclination of the inclined conveyor is between 10° to 20°.

Screw conveyor machines have been set as the standard of reliability across the manufacturing sites.

Further, they have various functions which include materials that can be moved forward along the axis of container by the push of screw machine.

Global Screw Conveyor Market: Dynamics

Rising demand for the products mixing machine from the agricultural industry along with escalated consumption of products such as grains has increased the screw conveyors market.

This, in turn is pushing the sales of the screw conveyors and is ultimately expected to drive the global screw conveyor market over the near future.

Further, screw conveyors have various exceptional characteristics which include easy handling, better flexibility and energy efficiency.

Thus, manufacturers are utilizing the product for harvesting, growing and processing of agriculture products such as rice, wheat, corn, etc.

Fluctuations in the price of raw material is one of the key challenge identified in the market for the manufacturers across the globe.

Manufacturers of screw conveyor are focusing on technological advancements and product development in order to cater to the wide customer base.

Further, governmental incentives and subsidies for the animal feed milling in the pharmaceutical industry is one of the key factors forcing the manufacturers to employ new technologies.

The aforementioned factors are expected to be the key trends identified in the market over the immediate future.

Global Screw Conveyor Market: Regional Outlook

• Growing consumption of the agricultural products such as grains, cereals, pulses etc. across the globe supported by surging population is pushing the demand for the screw conveyor.
• Asia-Pacific, spearheaded by China and India is expected to account for a significant share in the market. Further, the demand for the screw conveyor in the region is expected to grow at a significant rate in the near future.
• Europe and North America in the global market are anticipated to expand at moderate rate over the forecast period, owing to the modest growth of the end-use industries. Middle East and Africa, led by GCC countries is projected to grow at a very slow rate over the near future
