Applications The design of screening equipment has, over the years,largely been determinedby experience and the need

to provide good screening capacity and effrciency whilst using the smallest possible screening surface or area. Our standard range of vibrating screens represents the culmination of many years of experience in the handling of a wide range of bulk materials in a diverse range of industries. In addition to the standardrangeof screens outlined in this datasheet,there are also many special screenswhich have been designed and manufactured to suit customersspecial requirements. All the screensare designedto give a long working life with minimal maintenanceand easyreplacementofthe screendecks. Screening, extraction and separation are amongst some of the most important functionsin processingtechnologyand can be divided into severaldiscretecategories, and generally defined as:Coarse grading - Where bulk materials are divided into coarsegranulation rangesand w h e r e i n s o m e c a s e se x t r e m e s i z i n g accuracyis not requiredFine grading - Normally associatedwith particle sizes less than 3mm down to 50 microns and where a high degree of accuracyis required. De-dusting und the extraction of undersize particles - The cleaning up of bulk materials by the removal of particles less than the granulation range which, in by degradation. the main, havebeencaused Protective screening and the extraction of oversize particles - The removal of impurities,foreign bodiesandlumps which greatly exceed the required granulation range. Separation - The removal of coarse material from fines. Dewatering - The recovery of solids from a washing media, usually water. Extraction - The removal of non soluble impurities from washing water or carrier liquids.

Mode of Operation Unlike systemsusing circular or elliptical motion which haveto be declinedto impart a conveying component into the product being screened,our range of vibrating screens have a predominately linear displacementwhich, due to its angle to the screening plane, imparts a conveying componentinto the product. This not only allows this type of screen to be installed and operatedhorizontally, but also offers the following significant advantages:-

hygiene and legislativerequirementsof the food and pharmaceuticalindustries. A rangeof equipment finishes are available, which includes spraying, powder coating, polishingandbeadblasting.

Drive Units These are either vibrator motors or vibrators,but as screening electromagnetic performance is greatly influenced by the dynamic characteristics and control parametersof the drive system,the choice between vibrator motors or electromagnetic vibrator drive is very important.

Product Presentation It is always recommendedthat screensare a suitably designed fed with electromagneticdrive feeder as the output can be steplessly adjusted. This ensures that the screen deck can be fed over its entire width with a loose curtain of material at an optimum flow rate, resulting in efficient screeningand even wear. Product Testing It is not always possible to selectthe type of screen best suited to a particular application from the description of the material and the performance criteria required. Therefore. in many cases optimum sizing of equipment can only be determined by performing testson a sample of material using our purpose built test units.
