    Yes of course, this works but I wonder about the efficiency or energy consumption over another design, say possibly a rotary screw conveyor.
    Never try to tell me it can't be done

    OR.. Maybe just pour the contents of the bucket directly into the box?

    Maybe they are just polishing the spiral using abrasive. So many possibilities.

    Design to elevate, de-elevate bulk material, like rice. The question is how long the electric cable can survive?
