CAPACITY
A. The capacities of augers or screw
conveyers varies greatly under varying
conditions. The following factors play a role in
the performance of the auger:
•
Speed
• Angle of operation
• Moisture content
• Amounts of foreign matter
• Methods of feeding
• Different materials
B. An auger operating at a 25° incline might
experience 20% less capacity than an auger
operating horizontally. Twenty-five percent
(25%) moisture could cut capacity by as much
as 40% under some conditions.
