Conveyors by worm shaft or screw rods are mechanisms that use a rotating helical screw blade, called a “flighting“, usually within a tube, to move liquid or granular materials.

They are used in many bulk handling industries. Worm conveyors in modern industry are often used horizontally or at a slight incline as an efficient way to move semi-solid materials, including food waste , wood chips, aggregates, cereal grains, animal feed, boiler ash, meat and bone meal, municipal solid waste, and many others. The design of the conveyor is dependent on operating conditions, the type of transported material and its properties.

Traffic enforcement can be controlled by changing the speed of propulsion.In this specific case below the worm conveyor is used to transport the mud for making bricks.

Jesus. An old friend of mine lost a foot in something similar - a coworker hit the emergency stop when he slipped and got caught.
