Abstract

The novelty of this work lies in the design of a helical conveyor for solid waste from the chocolate industry, materials that can be cohesive, with variable density, and potentially corrosive. The objective is to present a validated and replicable technical model that optimizes the transport of 5 metric tons per hour of these wastes at Peru's National Chocolate Company. The goal is to minimize human contact, improve ergonomic safety, and transform waste into exploitable resources under circular economy principles. The methodology employed is an applied type with a quantitative approach, supported by the selection of components through specialized technical catalogs from KWS manufacturing and Martin engineering, which implement ANSI/CEMA 350 standards. Results indicate a total required power of 1.5 HP, with a helicoid diameter of 9", a helical tube of 2", a pitch of 6", and operation at 60 RPM. It is concluded that this design constitutes an efficient and replicable technical solution to improve working conditions in industrial environments, significantly reducing occupational injuries while mitigating environmental impact.
