Screw Flight Layout or Flat Pattern Development

Calculate the flight of screw conveyor

[chinyembakakinga]

A very concise explanation. Just what I needed for small metal fabrication workshop. Thanks

[u_solutions_lv]

Perfect explanation. And not too ear bleeding accent. Thank you very very much

[adekunleadebayo]

Excellent coaching. Much appreciated. Note however that in step #5 and #6, the formula should be using D' and d' not D and d.
If the apk file is not available, you can just automate the calculations in Excel or Google sheets.

Thank you so much for the educative clarification but I will sincerely need the App ASAP, wonderful tutoring

[autofigure]

others have said it too, but with more explanation; steps 5 and 6 should use D' and d'.

L / (360° - ∠0°) = (D' * pi) / 360°

L and l (lowercase L) are just a fraction of the full circumference of the circle with a diameter of D' (so to find the theoretical full circumference 2*pi*r you get D' * pi).
Its essentially just creating a ratio of the sectional length at the unknown angle to the theoretical length of the full cutout diameter at 360°.

This was a very good explanation otherwise, I wasn't sure how to go about this at all, but unfolding the cylinder spiral really was an "ooooh that makes perfect sense" moment and its simpler than I thought. This doesn't account for material thickness / bending though but it should at least get you in the ballpark, and the thinner the material you use the closer you should get to having the cutout work as intended for a prototype or something.

You are a blessing my brother, thanks a million

Excellent explanation, greetings from Argentina!

[areskandhy]

Sorry i'am about to correction formula in step 5, the formula "D*Pi". "D" here mean "D' " right? not D but D', somebody will make mistake on calculation if put value D on D'. thanks for the explaination

[rajagopal]

Very explanatory and easy to understand .

[zoheirbessai]

THANKS A LOT, my friend I didn t see better explanation

[aungkyaw]

Thank you .good presentation and useful.

[vahidnorouzi]

A thorough explanation! You are awesome!

[romuloawayan]

Very clear and easy to understand explanation.... can you also make a video for screw flight layout how to calculate inside diameter if the shaft diameter is increasing or tapered shafting

[dilsondeoliveira]

I liked watching the video, you are amanzing!

[dawidbisschoff]

Excellent explanation and demonstration. Calculations easy to follow. Will appreciate link for application. Is it available for PC or just android. Thanks

[deepakyatoskar]

Good I was looking for such information and got it at write time. I will try and let you know.thanks buddy

[achembusinessidea.]

Thank you sir. This helps me immensely

[preyanandasagar]

Thank you
Easy to understand with calculation
In angle calculation pls mention dia as D' & d'

Good day

There is one videos i saw in your channel for Designing of a 15000 Gals elevated Steel Tank. I saw that its comment section is turned off. I really liked the video and was hoping to find more of this type and possibly other Structural design related videos. I am working on a similar project which i am designing. I was hoping to get any help i can. If there are other channels you have related to the topic or any other channel, kindly share. 😊😊😊😊
