How can I repair a screw conveyor whose shaft is worn like this?
Thread Content
The auger is too long to fit on the lathe; are there any other ways to repair it?
Is it sealed with packing? If so, remove the packing in the middle and use a soft packing for sealing.
The main issue is how to repair the shaft; that groove was formed as a result of wear on the bearing housing after the bearing was damaged.
I thought it was the filler grinder. It seems there’s no good way around it if you don’t use the lathe. If some expert answers it, I’ll learn from it too*
It looks so worn out and old; why not buy a new one?
This shaft is attached; by pulling out the screw, it can be seen.
I see a gap behind the groove; if this section is removed, it can be taken out for machining. If it’s the entire piece, you can contact them to apply plating treatment and then reinstall the filler.
The shaft and the reamer should be assembled together; the shaft should be able to be removed
Don’t repair it; just make a new one and install it
