The pitch on the screw conveyor flights are an important consideration. At full pitch, the spacing between the flights is equal to the diameter of the feeder. At half pitch, the spacing between the flights is half of the diameter of the feeder. If the pitch across the flights is the same, pressure will build up towards the end of the conveyor.

best conveyor design. Since the Screw Conveyor selected is based on a maximum volume control of material to be handled, surge loads, overloads and choke feeding must be accounted for in the conveyor design. Screw feeders are popularly used for this control and are discussed in other pages of this catalog. CLASSIFY YOUR MATERIAL

As per the formula, outside diameter can be found by reducing the inside flight diameter from the outside flight diameter and dividing the resultant value by the 2. And to find the cylindrical screw flights, divide the products of developed inside diameter and overall radius by the reduced value of developed outside diameter and inside diameter.
