The Archimedes' screw allows items to be transported upwards: first, place an Archimedes' screw with opening connected to a chute by which the objects arrive. Then place one or more Archimedes' screws above the Archimedes' screw with opening and finally complete the system with an Archimedes' screw with opening, which will connect to a chute for the exit of items. | The Archimedes' screw allows items to be transported upwards: first, place an Archimedes' screw with opening connected to a chute by which the objects arrive.

To rotate the Archimedes screws with port, you can use a [[wrench]]. | ||

The system needs to be actuated by mechanical power to function. Note that the more Archimedes' screws you stack on top of each other, the more torque it will take to operate the system, which involves adding sails to the wind mill that provides the power or using a system with large gears if the size of the wind mill is at its maximum. | The system needs to be actuated by mechanical power to function. The axle which turns the screw inside the mechanism must be placed under the Archimedes screw with port located at the bottom or above the Archimedes screw with port located at the top. | ||
