German term
Schneckenförderung
German to English
Tech/Engineering
Mechanics / Mech Engineering
"Zuverlässige Fördersysteme wahlweise mit Band- oder Schneckenförderung"
Unfortunately I don't have any more context. This sentence is part of an article on various machines but I only have a small section. This is in a features list where only the brand name of the machine is provided not what it actually is and then the bullet point list.
Hope someone can help. TIA!

What is meant here are conveying systems using Bänder (belts) or Schnecken (screws) to handle/transport products or materials. The whole expression could be rendered as "reliable conveyor/handling systems with either belt or screw conveyors".

Stephen's suggestion "worm conveyor" is another alternative to render "Schneckenförderer".
