Auger feed system for material handling and mixing

Designed as a dual feed auger system that moves material at a controlled flow rate into the orifice of a tube. The assembly utilizes stepper motors, a custom auger design, and a custom static mixer design to move two different materials into a single orifice. Nearly two-thirds of the components were manufactured using 3D printing (in a stainless steel alloy) for quick turn around and for complex geometries that are difficult for conventional machining.
