Solids Handing Specialist Introduces Bespoke Auger Design & Manufacturing

Listen to this article

– Auger manufacture for the 21st century

Traditionally, auger manufacturing was more of an art than a science. Production methods were slow and required highly skilled craftsmen. Trantec developed our own methods of auger screw production, by upgrading our production facility, opting for CAD/CAM machine tooling equipment, to speed up production and cut costs.

Many of our customers approach us for an alternative quote after initially contacting the manufacturer of their original machine. We appreciate that machine users would prefer to fit an auger from the OEM, although regrettably many will charge a substantial premium for auger spares.

Quality and reproducibility are inherent to our production process and create cost savings which are passed onto our customers. Once the design is finalised, production can begin with minimal human intervention and your auger will be dimensionally accurate to fractions of a millimetre, producing consistent action when used in bulk solids applications.
