Stock Conveyor Components
At Thomas Conveyor we maintain a large inventory of conveyor components available to ship in 48 hours. Stock components include helicoid & sectional screws, flights, style 226 hangers, flanged covers, discharge & inlet spouts, shafts, troughs, and trough ends with feet.


Screw Conveyors
Screw Conveyors are one of the oldest and simplest devices used for the movement of bulk materials. Screw conveyors are compact and easily adapted to congested locations. They can be used as a mixer or agitator, to mix and blend dry or wet ingredients. Screw conveyors are available in a wide variety of materials to resist corrosion, abrasion or heat. Horizontal, inclined, or vertical conveyors are also available. Thomas Conveyor is one of the largest custom screw conveyor manufacturer in North America.
  • Inlet is always control fed
  • 15, 30 & 45% trough loading
  • Volumetric conveying device


Multi Screw Conveyors
Multi Screw Conveyors are used as a screw feeder and may consist of twin, triple or quadruple screws, side by side. They provide a means of moving a wide variety of material from bins or hoppers at a constant and controlled rate of flow.
  • The inlet is usually flooded with material (100% loaded)
  • Volumetric metering device


Ribbon Screw Conveyors
Ribbon flight conveyor screws consist of sectional flights, buttwelded together to form a continuous helix. The flights are secured to the center pipe by supporting legs. They are used to convey sticky, gummy, or viscous substances, or where the material tends to adhere to the flighting and pipe.


Paddle Screw Conveyor
The Paddle Screw Conveyor is used when material needs to be mixed before reaching its destination. Adjustable paddles provide complete mixing action, and a controlled material flow. Conveying action can be controlled by adjusting the angle of the paddles.


Modular Plastic Screw Conveyor
Plastic modules consist of a helical flight spiraling once (360°) around a hollow square hub. The flight modules are available in polyethylene, polypropylene, and polyurethane, each with characteristics to fill specific needs. Theses modules are durable, corrosion proof and lightweight.
  • FDA approved for food contact
  • Can be replaced without welding or burning
  • Assembled conveyor is comparatively lightweight, easier to handle, and bearing life is prolonged
  • Slick surface simplifies cleaning
  • Eliminates metal contamination in food
  • Available in 6”, 9” and 12” diameters, in right hand only


Screw Feeders
Screw Feeders provide a means of moving a wide variety of material from bins or hoppers at a constant and controlled rate of flow. One or more tapered or variable pitch screws convey the material at the required rate. Screw Feeders are available in a variety of types to suit specific materials and applications.
  • Screw Feeders are designed to control the rate of flow of bulk materials from bins or hoppers
  • Inlet is always flood loaded
    • 100% trough loading at inlet
  • Volumetric metering device


Bucket Elevators
Bucket Elevators are used to vertically move (elevate) a variety of bulk materials with fine to large lumps. These units are available in centrifugal and continuous types. Bucket Elevators use an endless chain or belt with buckets attached and can be made in a variety of shapes and sizes for your material handling needs.
  • Bucket Elevators transfer bulk materials vertically from one location to another
  • Inlet can be flooded or control fed
  • Volumetric transfer device


Drag Conveyors
Thomas offers two types of Drag Conveyors, Round Bottom and Flat Bottom. These types are especially suited for handling grain and other free flowing materials. The flights are made of UHMW and are bolted to a steel chain. Both utilize heat treated sprockets and a rail return system as standard features. When heavier abrasive materials need to be conveyed, contact us about our Mill Duty Drag Conveyor with Forged Chain.


Vertical Screw Elevators
The Thomas Conveyor Screw Elevator is ideally suited to elevate a wide range of bulk materials in a relatively small space. If a material can be classified as free flowing or very free flowing, it can probably be elevated in a Screw Elevator. We offer Standard and Superscrew Elevators with several different drive arrangements to meet your requirements.
  • Transfer bulk materials vertically from one location to another
  • Inlet must be control fed
  • Typically used for free-flowing products


Shaftless Screw Conveyors
Shaftless Screw Conveyors are used in applications where particle sizes are large or the product is sticky of viscous. They do not require hanger bearings because there is no center pipe. Typical applications include wine and beverage industry, rendering, recycle plants, and waste water to name a few.
  • Transfer sticky or viscous bulk materials from one location to another
  • Design as conveyor or feeder
  • Volumetric conveying or feeding device


Slide Gates
Discharge Slide Gates are available as manual, electric or pneumatic operated. These types of gates allow you to regulate the flow of material discharged or completely shut off the flow.


Grit Washers
The Thomas Grit Washer is used to separate, classify, and dewater grit from wastewater and grit slurries.
  • Heavy-Duty design and construction
  • Large settling basin used to separate solids from liquids
  • Typically used in municipal wastewater applications
  • High-Torque drive to handle upset conditions
  • Support legs for elevation requirements


Mixers
Thomas Conveyor Mixers can mix and convey a wide variety of materials, including dry free flowing powders, thin slurries, and thick pastes. The CM Continuous Mixer is a double agitator type machine. The paddles are easily adjustable allowing the mixer to be fine-tuned to its utmost efficiency for your application.
  • Continuous Mixers mix and convey two or more products
  • Used for continuous processes
  • Products to be mixed are fed in at controlled rates
  • High speed mixer


Heat Transfer Screw Conveyors
Heat Transfer Screw Conveyors cool or heat bulk materials during conveying. These units may utilize special tubular jacketed housings or standard u-trough housings.
  • Heat transfer mediums include water, glycol, steam, and hot oil
  • Indirect heat transfer device
  • Available only in:
    • Hollow-flight design
    • Heat/cooled pipe only


Screw Compactors
Screw Compactors de-water and convey solids to disposal. They are used to separate solids from liquids and are typically used in municipal wastewater applications.


Pressurized Screw Conveyor
Pressurized Screw Conveyor utilizes a tubular or pipe housing with ANSI flanges. This type of conveyor is used for conveying various types of materials and can be designed for various pressures and temperatures. ASME code stamp available on housings only.


Hopper / Tank
Hoppers custom designed for you application in various shapes, sizes, and materials.
  • Carbon or Stainless Steel Construction
  • Structural Supports
  • Engineered Design


Specialty Belt Conveyors
Thomas industrial belt conveyors are engineered to transport sand, cement, limestone, ores, wood chips, coal, fertilizers, chemicals, gypsum, filter cakes, food products and various others materials for superior performance in many different industries.
  • Heavy Duty Design and Construction
  • Trough Roller Bed or Slider Bed belt conveyors
  • Flexible Corrugated Sidewall belt conveyors with high cleats for steep incline up to 90 degree applications
