What is the purpose of installing a valve at the outlet of the screw conveyor? If no valve is used, isn’t it sufficient to simply stop the motor?

Heavy-load starting is not good for the motor of a screw conveyor.

Before shutting down the machine, close the valve first; the screw conveyor will stop discharging material when the machine is shut down. When discharge is required, first start the screw conveyor and then open the valve. In this way, the motor of the screw conveyor starts with no load.
