SCREW CONVEYOR WELD FINISH CLASSIFICATIONS
Screw conveyor welds are frequently required to be “ground smooth”, particularly for
applications in the food industry. Since the term ground smooth can have various
interpretations, the following classifications are used to define ground smooth:
2A — Weld Spatter and Slag removed and rough grind welds to remove heavy weld ripple
or unusual roughness (equivalent to a 40-50 grit finish) (CEMA II)
2B — Weld Spatter and Slag removed and rough grind welds to remove heavy weld ripple
or unusual roughness (equivalent to a 40-50 grit finish) and sandblasted.
3A — Weld Spatter and Slag removed and medium grind welds — leaving some pits and
crevices (equivalent to an 80-100 grit finish) (CEMA III)
3B — Weld Spatter and Slag removed and medium grind welds — leaving some pits and
crevices (equivalent to an 80-100 grit finish) and sandblasted
4 — Weld Spatter and Slag removed and fine grind welds — no pits or crevices
permissible (equivalent to a 140-150 grit finish) (CEMA IV)
5 — Weld Spatter and Slag removed and fine grind weld — no pits or crevices
permissible (equivalent to a 140-150 grit finish) and polish to a bright uniform finish
(CEMA V).

THERMAL EXPANSION OF SCREW CONVEYORS FOR HOT MATERIALS
Screw conveyors are often used to convey hot materials. When they are employed in this
manner, allowances must be made for the expansion of the trough and screws. Allowances
must also be made for the different expansion between the troughs and screws.
The recommended method is to provide supports for the trough sections that will allow
movement of the trough end feet during the expansion and contractions. The drive end of
the conveyor is usually fixed, allowing the movement in the balance of the conveyor. If
multiple discharge spouts are in a fixed position, the expansion type of trough may be
required.
The following formula can be used to determine the change in length of the conveyor:
∆L = L (t1 –t2) C
Example Problem:
A 60-foot screw conveyor is to convey hot ash at a temperature of 450° F that will raise the
metal temperature to 400° F from an original 90° F.
t1 = 400
t2 = 90
t1 – t2 = 310°
In this example, the use of expansion hangers would be required and provisions made for
trough movement.

COMPONENT SELECTION
Shrouds are used in trough sections of screw feeders to decrease the clearance between the
cover and feeder screw to obtain proper feed regulation. Lengths are sufficient to prevent flushing
of the majority of materials being handled and gauges are proportioned to trough size and gauge.

WARNING & SAFETY REMINDERS
Introduction
FOR SCREW, DRAG, AND BUCKET ELEVATOR CONVEYORS
& Safety
APPROVED FOR DISTRIBUTION BY THE SCREW CONVEYOR SECTION OF THE CONVEYOR
EQUIPMENT MANUFACTURERS ASSOCIATION (CEMA) CEMA Document: SC 2004-01
It is the responsibility of the contractor, installer, owner and user to install, maintain and operate the conveyor, com-
Std Capacity

ponents and, conveyor assemblies in such a manner as to comply with the Williams-Steiger Occupational Safety and
Health Act and with all state and local laws and ordinances and the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) B20.1
Safety Code.
In order to avoid an unsafe or hazardous condition, the assemblies or parts must be installed and operated in accord-
ance with the following minimum provisions:
Std Capacity
2000 series
1. Conveyors shall not be operated unless all covers and/or guards for the conveyor and drive unit are in place. If the
conveyor is to be opened for inspection cleaning, maintenance or observation, the electric power to the motor driving the
conveyor must be LOCKED OUT in such a manner that the conveyor cannot be restarted by anyone; however remote
from the area, until conveyor cover or guards and drive guards have been properly replaced.
2. If the conveyor must have an open housing as a condition of its use and application, the entire conveyor is then to be
Std Capacity
guarded by a railing or fence in accordance with ANSI standard B20.1. (Request current edition and addenda)
3000 series
3. Feed openings for shovel, front loaders or other manual or mechanical equipment shall be constructed in such a way
that the conveyor opening is covered by a grating. If the nature of the material is such that a grating cannot be used,
then the exposed section of the conveyor is to be guarded by a railing or fence and there shall be a warning sign posted.
4. Do not attempt any maintenance or repairs of the conveyor until power has been LOCKED OUT.
Std Capacity
4000 series
5. Always operate conveyor in accordance with these instructions and those contained on the caution labels affixed to
the equipment.
6. Do not place hands, feet, or any part of your body, in the conveyor.
High Capacity
5000 series
8. Do not use conveyor for any purpose other than that for which it was intended.
9. Do not poke or prod material into the conveyor with a bar or stick inserted through the openings.
10. Keep area around conveyor drive and control station free of debris and obstacles.
High Capacity
6000 series
11. Eliminate all sources of stored energy (materials or devices that could cause conveyor components to move without
power applied) before opening the conveyor.
12. Do not attempt to clear a jammed conveyor until power has been LOCKED OUT.
14. Conveyors are not normally manufactured or designed to handle materials that are hazardous to personnel. These
materials which are hazardous include those that are explosive, flammable, toxic or otherwise dangerous to personnel.
Conveyors may be designed to handle these materials. Conveyors are not manufactured or designed to comply with lo-
cal, state or federal codes for unfired pressure vessels. If hazardous materials are to be conveyed or if the conveyor is to
be subjected to internal or external pressure, manufacturer should be consulted prior to any modifications.

The Conveyor Equipment Manufacturers Association (CEMA) insists that disconnecting and locking out the power to the
motor driving the unit provides the only real protection against injury. Secondary safety devices are available; however,
the decision as to their need and the type required must be made by the owner-assembler as we have no information
regarding plant wiring, plant environment, the interlocking of the screw conveyor with other equipment, extent of plant
automation, etc. Other devices should not be used as a substitute for locking out the power prior to removing guards or
covers. We caution that use of the secondary devices may cause employees to develop a false sense of security and fail
to lock out power before removing covers or guards. This could result in a serious injury should the secondary device fail

if one conveyor in a system or process is stopped other equipment feeding it, or following it can also be automatically
stopped. Electrical controls, machinery guards, railings, walkways, arrangement of installation, training of personnel, etc.,
are necessary ingredients for a safe working place.
It is the responsibility of the contractor, installer, owner and user to supplement the materials and services furnished with
these necessary items to make the conveyor installation comply with the law and accepted standards.
Conveyor inlet and discharge openings are designed to connect to other equipment or machinery so that the flow of mate-
rial into and out of the conveyor is completely enclosed.

INDUSTRIAL BUCKET ELEVATORS
Introduction
& Safety
Bucket elevators are designed to move flowing powders or bulk solids vertically. The typical elevator consists of a
series of buckets mounted on a chain or belt operating over a sprocket or pulley. Take-ups are provided as a means
to compensate for variations in length of chain or belt due to temperature changes, atmospheric conditions, or wear. A
steel casing encloses the bucket line. Head sections and boot sections house integral transmission components.
Std Capacity
Material is fed into an inlet hopper. Buckets (or cups) dig into the Material, and convey it up to and over the head

sprocket/pulley, then throwing the material out the discharge throat. The emptied buckets then continue back down to
the boot to continue the cycle.
ORTHMAN CONVEYING’S Industrial Bucket Elevators are made in a variety of shapes, weights and sizes, utilizing
centrifugal buckets or continuous buckets.
Std Capacity
2000 series
Centrifugal Bucket Elevators are most commonly used to convey free-flowing, powdered bulk solids such as grains,
animal feed, sand, minerals, sugar, aggregates, chemicals and more. They operate at high speeds, which throw the
materials out the buckets into discharge throat by centrifugal force.
Industrial type elevators operate at slower speeds than standard duty-type elevators. Generally, Style AA buckets are
used, which are widely spaced on a chain or belt and operate at speeds up to 305 FPM for handling the heaviest of
industrial materials up to 1213 pounds per cubic foot.
Std Capacity
3000 series
Continuous Bucket Elevators have buckets spaced continuously and operate at slower speeds. The continuous bucket
placement allows the force of gravity to discharge their load onto the inverted front of the preceding bucket. The bucket
then guides that material into the discharge throat on the descending side of the elevator.
Continuous elevators are used to handle friable, fragile materials because they minimize product damage or are used
to handle light, fluffy materials where aeration of the product must be avoided. Speeds average 120 FPM for handling

up to 775 tons per hour.
Because every bucket application is unique, ORTHMAN CONVEYING offers a broad series of industrial elevator
designs. Selection of the proper type elevator depends largely on capacity requirements and the characteristics of the
material to be handled.

Inclination of conveyor:
Measured in degrees off the horizontal, consult the CEMA Belt Conveyor Manual or
ORTHMAN CONVEYING Engineering Department to determine the maximum angle
at which the particular material may be conveyed.
Peak Capacity:
Measured in tons per hour (TPH), the capacity used should be the peak capacity at
which the conveyor is expected to perform, not a lesser average capacity.

CHANNEL STRINGER CONVEYORS
Conveyors designed with channel stringers are available in 10’ 0”, and 20’ 0” standard
sections. Depending on the required conveyor length, an additional, nonstandard length
section will be supplied. A bolted splice plate connection joins and stiffens each joint.
Channel stringer sections can be joined to truss sections by special lateral frames for
spanning distances that require a truss section, while still enabling channel stringers to
be used where the spanned distance does not require a truss. Channel stringers range
in size from C4x5.4 to C10x20, depending on load, capacity and span requirements.
Schedule 40 pipe or carbon steel angles are used for cross-members, supplying added
strength and rigidity. Steel channel or fabricated bents are used for supports. The
channel frame design is especially suited to any application where overhead clearance
is limited.
Page 5
TRUSS FRAME CONVEYORS
Truss frame conveyors are available in 24” deep and 42” deep sections. The 24” deep
sections are available in lengths of 6’– 0”, 15’– 0”, 18’– 0”, and 20’– 0”. The 42” deep
sections are available in 16’– 0”, 20’– 0”, and 24’– 0” lengths. As with the channel frame
conveyors, a non-standard section may be required to meet the customers’ required
conveyor length. The truss frame conveyors are used in applications where a channel
frame conveyor cannot span an unsupported distance required by the customer.
Page 6
Flat Slide Conveyors
Used when weighing of the material is necessary, when the belt serves as a feeder, or
when limited overhead clearance requires a flat slide design.
Page 7
FIXED TAIL TERMINALS
This style is used when the conveyor has
a gravity take-up arrangement. The unit
consists of a fabricated steel frame, ball
or roller type pillow block bearings, a
wing-type tail pulley (unless otherwise
specified), and a fabricated expanded
metal tail pulley guard. For a totally
enclosed conveyor, the tail pulley guard is
made with solid sheet metal. The unit can
also be welded to the last stringer section
for easy maintenance. The tail terminal shown is designed to bolt to a truss section.
Terminals for channel stringers are also available.
Notes: 1. Weight values are frame-weights only; tail pulley guard weight is not included.
2. Pulley and shaft diameters will change with excessive loads and/or capacities.
Page 8
GRAVITY TAKE-UP
This illustration shows a standard gravity take-
up. Depending on the specific conveyor
requirements, design changes may be made to
accommodate them. The standard gravity take-
up includes two drum bend pulleys with ¼” plain
lagging and one wing-type take-up pulley. The
bearings are ball or roller type pillow blocks. The
frame is fabricated carbon steel that is designed
to either weld or bolt to the conveyor structure,
depending on customer requirements. There is
also a counterweight box, not shown for clarity.
A take-up guard may be required for certain
conveyors. Gravity take-ups have a travel of 18”,
24” and 30” depending on conveyor length.
Longer travel lengths may be designed if
required. The chart shows values for standard
gravity take-ups. Pulley diameters, shaft
diameters and weights may change if there are
excessive loads and/or capacities.
Page 9
SCREW TAKE-UP
TAIL TERMINALS
These terminals are also made of
fabricated steel construction. These
include screw-type take-up frames, ball
or roller type pillow block bearings,
wing-type tail pulleys, and expanded
metal tail guards. Take-up lengths can
be 12”, 18”, 24”, or 36”. Standard units
are designed to be welded to the last
stringer section, but a bolted connection
can also be supplied.

CONVEYOR ACCESSORIES
BELT CLEANERS
ORTHMAN has several different styles of industrial and food grade belt cleaners. The
most standard design is a spring-loaded belt cleaner with either a rubber or UHMW
scraper blade. This type cleaner is the most often used and will provide adequate
cleaning in most applications. Motor driven brush type cleaners are also available for
applications where the scraper type cleaner does not remove enough material. Please
consult the Engineering Staff at ORTHMAN to determine what type of belt cleaner best
suits your application.
The chart below shows the most standard belt cleaners available:

STANDARD CONVEYOR COVERS
ORTHMAN offers a variety of standard conveyor
covers. These covers are designed to protect
the belt, material and idlers from the weather
and other contaminants. Conveyor covers also
protect the belt from being sun dried and
damaged, and offers protection from wind and
rain. Shown here is a non-hinged, smooth
curved cover. This standard cover consists of
steel, galvanized steel or aluminum cover
sections supported on bands of heavier gauge
steel or aluminum. The support bands bolt
directly to the foot brackets which are
subsequently bolted to the top chord of truss
frames or to the top of channel stringers.
Curved covers are available in hinged, full, ¾ styles. Both smooth and corrugated sheet

DRIP PANS
Essential for conveyors running in areas where delicate machinery or people may be
underneath the conveyors, the fabricated drip pans are designed to keep any material on the
carrying and return runs from falling below the conveyors. The drip pans are made of 14 ga.
carbon steel and are joined together with bolted splice sections. For totally enclosed conveyors,
gaskets will be provided to ensure the drip pans are dust-proof.
Page 12
WALKWAYS AND HANDRAILS
ORTHMAN offers walkways and handrails for one or both sides of their conveyors to
provide maintenance access to the full length of the conveyor. Standard walkways are
either 36” or 48” wide. Walkways are designed to bolt to the conveyor supports of
channel frame conveyors, or directly to the lower cord angles of truss sections. The
handrails may either be welded directly to the walkway support frame, or may be
designed to bolt together at the job site, depending on shipping and installation needs.
Standard walkway flooring is 1 ¼” X 3/16” bar grating, and standard handrails are 1 ¼”
Sch 40 pipe. Walkway sections are available in 10’-0” or 20’-0” lengths. Galvanized
walkway is non-standard, but is available in 10’-0” sections. Ladders and cages are also
available if needed. In addition, ORTHMAN can provide the customer with service
platforms and support steel needed at critical maintenance areas, such as the head and
tail sections.
This picture shows a conveyor installation by ORTHMAN already in the field. The
walkways, handrails, platforms, ladders and/or steps are tailored to the individual
customer’s application. Please note that a safety stop switch is recommended on
conveyors where workers will be near a running conveyor.
Some welding and/or assembly may be required in the field for installation of walkways
and handrails. ORTHMAN will supply any installation instructions that are needed.

OTHER ORTHMAN PRODUCTS
BUCKET ELEVATORS
Designed to move flowing powders or bulk solids vertically. Series of buckets mounted
on chain or belt operating over a sprocket or pulley is the typical elevator configuration.
Take-ups are provided as a means to compensate for variation in conditions, or belt or
chain wear. A steel casing encloses the bucket line. Boot sections can be designed for
various angles and heights of inlet material. Discharge hoods can be designed to
accommodate specific customer applications. Please contact the ORTHMAN
CONVEYOR SYSTEMS Sales Department for a complete catalog of standard bucket
elevators.
SCREW CONVEYORS
Industrial and food grade screw conveyors are available for conveying a variety of
different materials. ORTHMAN offers a wide range of standard screw conveyors and
options shown in our Screw Conveyor catalog. This catalog is also available through
contacting the Sales Department at our home office or through your local sales
representative. ORTHMAN provides a full line of screw conveyors and related
components from water-jacketed heat-transferring models to multiple-screw “live
bottom” type feeder units.
GATES
ORTHMAN offers gates of virtually any configuration. Electric-actuated, air-operated,
and manual Y flop gates, flat slide gates, as well as made-to-order gates of the
customers’ design are available. Our general catalog shows many types of gates
already in use in the field. A wide range of materials is available for fabrication of the
gates including steel, stainless steel, and aluminum. Gates lined with abrasion resistant
steel or UHMW are available to suit customer requirements.
DRAG CONVEYORS
Drag conveyors are typically a chain-driven series of solid or perforated flights. This
type of conveyor is used for material retrieval where there is little overhead room, such
as under a casting line. They are also used for material retrieval in an oil or water pit
after a wash procedure. These conveyors are designed per customer requirements and
are tailored to fit customer needs. Because these conveyors are usually installed in
areas where maintainance access is usually difficult, they are built ruggedly. As with all
ORTHMAN products, these conveyors are built with the highest level of quality to avoid
frequent maintainance.
CUSTOM FABRICATION
From support steel structures to custom conveyors and mass flow hoppers,
ORTHMAN’S fabrication, welding and machine departments are able to supply just
about any type of fabricated steel structure, designed to suit customer requirements.
