Driven vs driven screw

All Answers (3 Answers In All)

By Pavitra Answered 6 years ago

A driver screw, the rotating parts of the screw pump enables to pump the fluid at constant volumetric flow at a point of rotation. 
Whereas a driven screw rotates along its axis as an effect of motion transferred by timing gear.

By Vishal Answered 6 years ago

Driver screw rotates with a close clearance with driven screw and pushes the fluid axially forward along the rotation angle. 
A driver screw is a screwed spindle developed of high tensile steel. The crucial role of driver screw is to drive the 
driven screw by utilizing an intermediate connection called timing gear.

By Raghu Answered 6 years ago

driven screw rotates in the opposite direction with a fixed clearance region. 
This enables you to trap water or fluid medium within the close clearance area.
Here since both the screw spindles rotate in opposite direction it moves the fluid axially along the angle of rotation to give non pulsating output.
