Micro-capacity
1-3 pellets/shot
1.1
Low-capacity- standard
0.1 – 4 Kg/hr
1
Low-capacity – smooth*
0.1 – 4 Kg/hr
2
Medium-capacity
0.2 – 10 Kg/hr
3
High -capacity
0.4 – 18 Kg/hr
4A
Extra-capacity (3/4")
0.6 – 35 Kg/hr
* for particular materials – consult with your LIAD representative
Notes:
a) Indicated screw capacity values are typical for free flowing granular 0.7 Kg/L bulk density
materials. Actual capacity depends on actual material features such as bulk density, flow ability,
pellet size etc., and also on the hopper volume.
b) The identification number is marked on each screw (micro screw is marked with "C").
c) Please consult with LIAD regarding higher capacity screws.
