Damaged Trough from a Shaftless Screw Conveyor

Damaged Trough is repaired using UHMW-PE Sheet
These pictures were taken at a Fertilizer Plant. One picture shows what happens to a Stainless Steel Trough that didn’t use a UHMW Liner to reduce the wear and friction and the other picture illustrates a novel way to Repair and Seal a damaged trough due to a Shaftless Screw wearing through the unprotected Stainless Steel surface. Many Wastewater Treatment Plants would experience similar problems if a Trough Liner isn’t used.
