A Brazil manufacturer ordered a model 500-25 single-piece spiral blades forming machine to produce screw conveyor flights in-house. It forms carbon steel plate up to 25 mm and stainless or wear-resistant plate up to 12 mm, with pitches from 100 to 1000 mm.
The machine has a maximum processing diameter of 400 mm times two plus the inner shaft diameter, uses a 7.5 kW motor, and is configured for Brazil’s 220 V, 60 Hz supply. Its compact footprint supports installation without special foundation work.
Nosso Brazil manufacturing customer has ordered a spiral blades forming machine — a single piece model 500-25 — to form the flights for their own screw conveyors inside their plant. The machine rolls plate up to 25 mm in carbon steel (12 mm in stainless or wear-resistant plate), reaches a maximum processing diameter of 400 mm × 2 plus the inner shaft diameter, and covers pitches from 100 to 1000 mm — drawing only 7.5 kW, wired for Brazil’s 220 V / 60 Hz supply.
Why Did the Brazil Customer Bring Flight Forming In-House?
The buyer uses the spiral blades forming machine for their own production — rolling the flights that go into the screw conveyors and augers they build. Companies reach this decision for the same three reasons:
- Outsourced thick flights carry a markup
- Long and unpredictable delivery times
- Outside suppliers rarely honor custom pitch or diameter one-offs
A single piece machine answers all three. Each segment is pressed from a flat plate on dies, so the shop makes any flight it can draw — including heavy-duty flights in wear-resistant plate that continuous rolling machines simply cannot process.
How Thick a Plate Can It Form?
| Material de chapa | Max. thickness |
| Aço carbono | 25 mm |
| Aço inoxidável | 12 mm |
| Wear-resistant plate | 12 mm |
Forming force comes through a 500 mm die height, which sets the segment pitch window of 100–1000 mm. This is the same single-piece (sectional) principle behind the line running at a Chilean industrial engineering firm; how the two forming routes compare is covered in our guide to choosing a suitable auger flight forming machine.

Built for Brazil’s 220 V / 60 Hz Grid
Brazilian factories run on either 50 Hz or 60 Hz depending on the state, and many plant voltages sit at 220 V rather than the 380–440 V that exported machines are usually wound for. This order specified 220 V, 60 Hz from the start, so every motor arrived matched the customer’s board — no transformer, no rewinding on site. Voltage customization is standard on the whole spiral blade forming machine series, as with the 415 V machine we recently delivered to Malaysia.
Installation is equally light: at 2.9 m long, 0.65 m wide, and 1.5 tonnes, the 500-25 fits a normal workshop bay and sets on a level floor — no foundation work required.
FAQ About Spiral Blades Forming Machine in Brazil
What is the maximum plate thickness for a single piece spiral blades forming machine?
The model 500-25 delivered to Brazil forms carbon steel up to 25 mm, and stainless steel or wear-resistant plate up to 12 mm. Thinner gauges down to about 8 mm are also within range.
How is the maximum processing diameter calculated on model 500-25?
The forming width is 400 mm per side, so the finished flight outer diameter equals 400 mm times two plus the inner shaft diameter. The 500 mm die height supports pitches from 100 to 1000 mm.
Is it worth forming spiral blades in-house?
For shops that build screw conveyors or augers continuously, in-house forming removes supplier markups and lead times and allows any custom diameter or pitch. A 1.5 t, 7.5 kW machine fits a standard workshop without special wiring or foundations.
