Vibrating Screen

Vibrating Screen
Product Introduction:

Vibrating screen is a mechanical device that uses the principle of vibration to classify, screen or remove impurities from materials such as particles, powders or slurries. It is widely used in mining, metallurgy, chemical industry, food, medicine, building materials and other industries.

Description

Product Introduction


Core functions of vibrating screen

Classification: Separate materials by particle size (such as coarse, medium and fine particles).

Screening: Remove impurities or unqualified particles (such as grain impurity removal and ore sorting).

Dehydration/de-sludge: Separate solids and liquids (such as sand washing and coal slime treatment).

Solid-liquid separation: Filter solid particles in slurry (such as chemical raw material filtration).


Key structures and components

Screen box: Carrying screen and material, need to be wear-resistant (commonly used stainless steel or carbon steel).

Screen: determines the screening accuracy, and the materials include wire mesh, polyurethane, nylon, etc.

Vibration motor/exciter: power source, adjusting the amplitude and frequency can change the screening effect.

Shock-absorbing spring: rubber spring, steel spiral spring, etc., to reduce the vibration transmitted to the foundation.

Support frame: fix the screen body to ensure stability.


Selection points

Material characteristics:

Particle size distribution, moisture content, viscosity, corrosiveness (such as acidic materials require stainless steel screens).

Screening requirements:

Processing capacity (tons/hour), screening efficiency (such as 95% pass rate), number of screen layers (single layer or multi-level classification).

Working environment:

Explosion-proof (chemical), food grade (304/316 stainless steel), high temperature resistant (such as foundry industry).

Special requirements:

Sealed and dustproof (pharmaceuticals), silent design (urban construction), automated connection (assembly line).


Common problems and solutions

Screen blockage:

Reason: material is wet or electrostatically agglomerated.

Solution: Use ultrasonic screen cleaning device or bouncing ball screen cleaning design.

Low screening efficiency:

Reason: amplitude/frequency mismatch or unreasonable screen mesh.

Solution: Adjust vibration parameters or replace screen.

Abnormal vibration of equipment:

Reason: eccentric block of vibrator is loose or bearing is damaged.

Solution: Tighten bolts or replace bearings.


Maintenance and care

Daily inspection: whether the screen is damaged or the bolts are loose.

Regular lubrication: Add high-temperature lithium-based grease to the vibrator bearing every 3 months.

Cleaning: Clean residual materials after shutdown (especially in the food industry).

Screen replacement: Replace in time according to wear and tear to avoid affecting accuracy.


Technology development trend

Intelligence: Install sensors to monitor vibration status and predict faults (such as remote monitoring of the Internet of Things).

Modular design: Quickly replace the screen or vibration unit to reduce downtime.

Energy saving and environmental protection: low power consumption motor, noise reduction technology (such as rubber shock pads).

Example application scenarios:

Mines: Circular vibration screening for iron ore selection (particle size 20-100mm).

Food factory: Rotary vibration screen for flour screening (mesh size 100-200 mesh).

Wastewater treatment: Linear screen for dewatering sludge (processing capacity 50t/h).
