Tech/Engineering / machinery - meat blender
English term or phrase: screw loader
This is for a user manual. I have already translated Screw conveyor with "transportsnegl" but what is a "screw loader" in this context?

Any help appreciated.

Explanation:
Måske er dette (screw loader) netop transportsneglen i det hele. Og så er den anden (screw conveyor) et transportbånd i det aktuelle tilfælde. Kig i hvert fald selv på nedenstående web-steder.
Men det er kun formodninger.

Thank you very much for your explanation. It helped me in my research. After looking at drawings from the client - and keeping your explanation in mind - I was finally able to come up with the Danish terms.

As you pointed out, 'screw loader' is either 'transportsnegl' eller 'transportsnekke', and the 'screw conveyor' is a 'skruetransportør' (transportbånd).

Tusind tak!

Snekke


Explanation:
According to the L&H farm dictionary/levnedsmiddel there is a screw elevator called "snekke" in Danish. A screw feed is a "sneglefemføring", and a screw feeder a "fødesnegl".

In the technical ordbog is a screw elevator called "spindelelevator".

I hope this is of help.
