How It Works
The filtration zone consists of a perforated screen panel with circular holes ranging from 1 to 6 mm, which effectively separates solids from the wastewater. A shaftless screw fitted with cleaning brushes continuously cleans the screen surface to prevent clogging. An optional washing system can also be activated manually via a valve or automatically via a solenoid valve for enhanced cleaning efficiency.
In the transport zone, the shaftless screw conveys the captured solids along the auger toward the discharge outlet. Powered by a gear motor, the screw rotates to pick up and transport the separated waste material efficiently.


Key Features
-
1. Continuous Filtration: Solids are retained by the screen while the wastewater passes through.
-
2. Self-Cleaning Mechanism: Brushes mounted on the outer diameter of the spiral continuously clean the internal surface of the screen.
-
3. Integrated Compaction: As solids are conveyed upward, they enter the compaction module for additional dewatering, reducing the screenings volume by more than 50% depending on material properties.
-
4. Flexible Installation: Suitable for installation in channels or tanks, at variable inclinations.
Typical Applications
The Shaftless Screw Screen is an advanced solid-liquid separation device widely used in wastewater treatment for continuous and automatic debris removal. Typical applications include:
-
✅ Municipal wastewater treatment plants
-
✅ Residential sewage pretreatment systems
-
✅ Sewage pumping stations
-
✅ Waterworks and power plants
-
✅ Industrial water treatment projects in sectors such as: textile, printing and dyeing, food processing, fisheries, paper mills, wineries, slaughterhouses, tanneries, and more.
