Leading the way in auger design
27 years of experience in auger deisgn and manufacturing
Quality and reproducibility are inherent to our production process. The techniques we use adopt “aerospace” manufacturing methods to produce superior augers that are highly accurate and reliable. Accuracy within fractions of a millimetre is typical and can be easily maintained across batches.
Quick production is always included, with a fast turnaround from design to manufacturing, producing many auger prototypes in under 36 hours, from inception to delivery, with standard auger screws received the same day.
The Trantec Network
Augers UK is a division of Trantec Solids Handling, which specialises in the design and manufacturing of augers screws. The methods we use are highly adaptable, allowing our engineers to produce a single “one-off” auger or cater to long production runs as many of our customers require. To ensure our client’s needs are met in the first instance, our “try-before-you-buy” service is available for multiple orders, taking the risk out of new product development.
Traditionally, Auger manufacturing techniques were considered more of an art than a science. Production times were slow and in the hands of very few highly skilled craftsmen. However, Augers-UK has worked hard to develop modern auger manufacturing methods, opting for the latest in Computer-Aided Design (CAD) and Computer-Aided Manufacture (CAM) technology both to create high-quality auger screws and speed up production, which allows Augers-UK to meet our clients’ highly demanding production schedules. With the manufacturing process not being labour-intensive, once the design is finalised, production can begin with minimal human intervention, reducing labour costs and allowing us to sell our auger screws at a sensible price.
At Augers UK, we specialise in producing auger screws and spiral augers (also known as flex augers) of all configurations for users of auger-based machinery such as Metering Screw Feeders, Filling Machines, Batching Systems, Powder Samplers, and Flexible Screw Conveyors. Our clients include organisations all over the globe, from snack multinationals to pharmaceutical laboratories. Our dedication to research and development has allowed us to produce innovative solutions for over two decades and work closely with all our customers to design and develop the most suitable application while meeting all user requirements and delivering an auger based solely on your material flow properties. All our augers are designed with the OEM factor in mind and lead the charge on high quality, with express global delivery available and, most importantly, sensibly priced.
Trantec, our parent company, has invested time and money into employing experienced engineers and designers alongside purchasing the latest CAD/CNC technologies to enable us to manufacture augers to the utmost of standards. All manufacturing is done in-house, allowing us to pass on our savings to our customers and provide a cost-effective solution while maintaining modern, high-quality standards. Over the last two decades, we have seen many changes in the marketplace to the design, manufacturing, and use of auger screws. We manufacture augers to suit a vast array of configurations and requirements, allowing us to always provide a bespoke solution suited to every individual client’s needs, no matter the industry. At Augers UK, we supply auger screws and spirals to the food, animal feed, seasoning, pharmaceutical, chemical, environmental, plastic, and nonwoven industries.
