1 yard capacity screw conveyor

English to Spanish Tech/Engineering Mechanics / Mech Engineering brick manufacturing machine
Context below:
"The machine is equipped with a combination, 1 yard capacity screw conveyor and gravity-fed hopper with a ¾" steel classifying screen which collapses for travel. The machine is built with all new steel and components. All surfaces subject to abrasion are protected by replaceable abrasion-resistant(AR) wear plates. The unique design innovations contribute to block quality, ease of operation and maintenance, and durability and reliability."

Thanks in advance!

Incorrect Hi Francesca,
I hope that you looked at the references I provided and realize that a screw conveyor has nothing to do with a "banda". Good luck with your translation.

banda transportadora sinfin con una capacidad de 1 yarda

Lo que no entiendo es porqué utilizan "yardas" como medida de capacidad.

transportador de tornillo (sinfin) de una yarda de capacidad

Se trata de un transportador de tornillo sinfin.
La capacidad se mide en yardas (medida de longitud) porque se refiere a lo que avanza el material movido por el tornillo.
Espero te sea de ayuda.

Cristian tiene razón, por lo general los movimientos de tierra se expresan en alguna unidad de volumen (por ejemplo, yardas cúbicas).
Pero quizás aquí se considere conocida la superficìe del volumen que desplaza el tornillo y por lo tanto con el recorrido alcance. No me atrevería a asegurar que en inglés se hayan olvidado de la palabra "cúbica" sin consultarlo con el cliente.
