Screw Spreader

Screw screw The screw screw is used for boiling stone fruits (cherries, apricots) and pome fruits (apples). The advantage of the sprayer is the continuity of the process, therefore, in a relatively short period of time (4 ... 5 min), the fruits are well softened. The screw spreader consists of two metal gutters located one above the other and sealed on top by hermetic covers. A screw with a hollow shaft, in which there are holes with a diameter of 5 mm, is placed in each trough. The product to be scalded is loaded into the hopper. Next, the rotating auger moves it to the opposite end of the trough, from where it enters the lower trough along the connecting sleeve and moves to the discharge chute. Steam in hollow shafts is supplied through a steam line.
