What is a Cement Screw Conveyor? Features and Prices

What is a Cement Screw Conveyor?

A cement screw conveyor is a screw-type conveying system designed for the horizontal or slightly inclined transfer of bulk materials such as cement, lime, and fly ash.
It is widely used in concrete batching plants, silo loading and unloading systems, dry mortar production facilities, and industrial powder transfer applications.
Thanks to its rotating screw mechanism, materials are conveyed inside the pipe in a continuous and controlled manner, ensuring dust-free, efficient, and safe transportation.

Features of Cement Screw Conveyors

Cement screw conveyors can be manufactured in different pipe diameters and lengths according to project requirements.
The most commonly used diameters in the sector are 168 mm, 219 mm, and 273 mm.
Depending on the conveying capacity, the screw conveyor’s motor power and gear reducer ratio are selected.
Bodies are typically made from galvanized steel but can also be produced in painted or stainless steel options.
Flanged connections, inlet and outlet chutes, and maintenance hatches are incorporated to facilitate both installation and maintenance processes.
Optional equipment such as vibration motors, level sensors, or special inlet designs can also be integrated for specific project needs.

Applications of Cement Screw Conveyors

Cement screw conveyors are primarily used for transferring material from cement silos to mixers in concrete batching plants.
They are also employed in dry mortar and plaster factories, in the chemical industry for powder transport, and in the food industry for granular material handling.
Screw conveyor systems offer a reliable solution wherever controlled, dust-free material transfer is required.

Cement Screw Conveyor Prices 2025

Cement screw conveyor prices vary depending on the diameter, length, material quality, and motor-reducer system used.
As of 2025, the price ranges for 273 mm diameter cement screw conveyors are approximately:

  • 4 meters length: Around 1,300 – 1,500 Euros
  • 5 meters length: Around 1,400 – 1,600 Euros
  • 6 meters length: Around 1,500 – 1,700 Euros

These prices apply to standard galvanized models. Costs may vary depending on motor power, reducer ratio, inlet and outlet designs, and additional equipment options.
