About us
Manfred Knaus Förderschneckenberatung is a sole proprietorship based in Sinsheim, established in 2015. The owner is Manfred Knaus, a state-certified mechanical engineering technician who has specialized in screw conveyors since 1993 and possesses many years of experience in engineering design and technical consulting in this field. The range of services includes independent consulting on screw conveyors, design and calculation of helix pitch, helix shape, rotational speed, diameter and drive, fault diagnosis for screw conveyors as well as the evaluation of product samples and operating conditions. Consultations are provided by telephone or through an on-site plant visit; in the event of disagreements with suppliers or customers, the company offers a neutral assessment of the situation. Upon request, suitable suppliers are mediated. In addition, based on many years of experience with components from international manufacturers, spare parts and bulk solids technology components are supplied, including screws, valves, gates, filters, loading bellows, rotary valves, overfill protection devices and level indicators. The company does not manufacture any components itself, but operates as an engineering and consulting service provider in bulk solids technology.
