SPIRAC USA Inc.

SPIRAC Inc. based in Atlanta, (Newnan) Georgia, is the North American Headquarters for SPIRAC AB of Malmo, Sweden.  We design and supply the internationally renowned range of the original SPIRAC Shaftless Screw Conveying, Sludge, Screening, and Compacting systems.

SPIRAC Shaftless Screw Conveyor Design

SPIRAC's shaftless design allows the spiral to rest on the replaceable liner, which becomes the bearing surface, eliminating the need for a central shaft, intermediate bearings and end bearings. This makes the spiral the only moving part in the conveyor trough. The elimination of the shaft allows a much higher fill rate resulting in lower rpm's, more efficient conveying and consequently less wear and power usage. It is a space-saving, extremely reliable conveying option. Maintenance is significantly reduced when compared to traditional conveying methods.

Applications - We have extensive experience in Municipal Wastewater Treatment, Pulp & Paper, Wine & other Specialized Industries. Shaftless technology applications expand daily as Clients discover that SPIRAC shaftless design offers new answers to old material handling problems. SPIRAC conveyors can be utilized for horizontal, incline or vertical transport, outloading to trucks, distributing from silos, and used in screening, dewatering, compacting, and bagging equipment.

Components

The heart of the system is the shaftless spiral. Based on SPIRAC experience, spirals may be made of many different materials and combined in multiple configurations to provide the most efficient results for specific applications. The primary material is a special proprietary HTMAS steel from Sweden, which has mechanical properties that result in the SPIRAC spiral having a very high tensile strength.

SPIRAC's proprietary liner, DURAFLO SPX
, is one of several liner options available. It is designed specifically to ensure long life. The DURAFLO SPX liner has a built in wear indicator with a snap-in, snap-out feature enabling easy replacement.

SPIRAC conveyors are totally enclosed in U or OK troughs
. There is no spillage of the material being conveyed and odors are completely contained. This provides a clean and safe workplace.

SPIRAC's direct drive
design allows a clean and efficient transmission without the maintenance required with belt and chain drives.

SPIRAC USA Inc is the North American Distributor for PAXXO Products.


PAXXO continuous bags
are a unique product for containing moisture and odor laden solids.   The 80 meter lengths of PE tube are accordion folded to a very compact size.  These folded units are called cassettes.  The cassettes are inserted into a holder that may be attached to almost any process equipment or conveyor (up to 15.75” OD).  As the product falls into the holder, through the bag – the bag fills up like a sausage casing into a bin.  When the bin is full you simply cut and retie the bag and start over.  The system works on gravity alone – no power is required.
