Falcon Industries - Sectional Flight Augers for Custom Auger Systems
Falcon Industries specializes in the manufacture of sectional flight augers, which are individual helix-shaped segments used in auger systems. These augers are uniformly thick from the outer diameter (OD) to the inner diameter (ID) and are particularly useful when the height or web of the flight exceeds what can be achieved with a flat bar in helicoid flight. Sectional flighting is customizable and can be produced in various sizes and thicknesses, thanks to Falcon's advanced press sizes and styles. The company offers features such as integral spokes, cut and folds, sawtooth edges, and bolt holes for mounting. Sectional flights can be highly durable and are suitable for applications where extreme wear occurs, allowing for easy replacement of individual segments. Falcon Industries utilizes plasma machines to cut flight blanks with tapered or square center shafts, and they cater to custom specifications to meet or exceed customer requirements.Falcon Industries is a premier manufacturer of a variety of flight styles, including sectional flights. We are experienced experts when it comes to flighting, and offer a number of manufacturing capabilities, and forming capabilities thanks to the variety of press sizes and styles that we developed.
Sectional flights are individual turns, wraps, or segments of wraps formed into a helix. The cross-section of the sectional auger flight is the same uniform thickness from the OD to the ID.
Sectional flighting is often used when the height, or web, of the flight, is larger than what can be produced with a flat bar in helicoid flight. Sectional flighting can be manufactured in a wide range of sizes. The formability of the base material generally limits the flight dimensions, but Falcon can work with you to overcome these limitations by using multi-piece sections and material options.
Falcon can provide sectional flight with integral spokes, cut and folds, sawtooth edges, and bolt holes for mounting teeth and shoes. Sectional flighting is one of our specialties; we have a breadth of press sizes and styles that allow us to offer a complete range of diameters and thicknesses. Large quantity price breaks are available. Our sectional flighting is perfect to use in cases where extreme auger wear can occur, and individual flights require replacement.
Falcon produces sectional flights in diameters as small as 1-1/2” up to 148” and thicknesses up through 1-1/2”. We can program our plasma machines to cut flight blanks with a precut tapered OD, tapered ID, or both diameters tapered and make a flight that fits a square center shaft.
