Common Flight Types





Applications
The flights illustrated above represent the most frequently demanded designs in the industry and are by no means the only styles available. The T and BT style flights are used for horizontal through slight incline applications, normally between 0 to 12°, while the U flight can be used for horizontal/incline combinations through approximately 25°. The modified BT, O, OO, and OO with filler plates are utilized in horizontal/inclined applications through 90°.


Technical Data
As a general rule, granular material can be handled with a reduced number of flights. Finer, pulverized or micron-sized products typically require additional flight contact or modifications of the flight itself. Contact CDM for your specific application.
