Vibrating Screens for Crushing Plant for Sale

In crushing plants, screens are used for size separation of the ore being crushed. Generally ore that is undersized is sent onto the next stage of comminution and oversize ore is often returned to the circuit for further crushing (see closed circuit section). Screens can be designed in a single deck, double deck, or triple deck configuration, depending on the application required. The shape of the screen can be either conventional inclined (entire screen sits at one angle), or “banana” shaped being steep at the feed end, with the angle reducing towards the discharge end.

Vibrating Screens

The vibrating screen is used widely within the mineral processing industry. They are characterised by the consistent incline angle.

High screening efficiencies are obtained with the use of a reasonably deep bed of ore moving down the screen, to promote sorting and flow through the screen deck.

Too thin a bed depth may result in the material “bouncing” leading to poor efficiency.
