Description Flexible auger
BM Flexible auger 75 mm ensures direct and efficient conveying – even between buildings. The maximum conveying length is 60 metres, but the number of bends and/or the texture and density of the conveyed material may reduce the maximum length.
At a specific gravity exceeding 650kg/m³ we recommend an engine with power requirements for double length.
Jansen&Heuning offer three different flexible augers:
Flexible auger – 75 mm

Flexibele auger – 125 mm
| Auger | Model | Shape | Exterior | Interior |
| 125 | Rond | 88 mm | 68 mm | |
| 125 | Plat | 100 mm | 70 mm | |
| Pipes | Exterior | Interior | Material | |

The spiral flight is available in round and flat versions with different pitches, depending on the model type and material to be handled.
The pipes and bends normally come in durable PEH. The black PEH pipes are flexible and are impact resistan. All piping consists of straight pipes and fixed bends assembled by means of sleeves. Alternatively, we supply white PVC pipes and bends. The PVC pipes are rigid and dimensionally stable, facilitating better pipe suspension.
The drive can be fitted at the inlet or the discharge end. For long augers or demanding materials it may be necessary to fit motors at both ends. The drive is available with a worm gear motor.
The inlet measures 300×300 mm and has two vertical sides which offer the largest possible inlet length. It matches all BM silo outlets, either directly or via a 500×500 mm to 300×300 mm adaptor.
The discharge can be mounted at a 45° or 90° angle using a Ø 100, Ø 150 or OK-160 flange.
Wood and beet pellets can be conveyed using a special flexible auger. Max. length for this auger: 18 metres.
Optional equipment
Additional outlets and discharge pipes in a range of dimensions can be supplied. We also offer a wide range of adaptors and cover panels that allow the auger feed unit to be mounted on an existing silo.
