Vibrating Screens Definition

A vibrating screen is a machine used to separate materials into various sizes based on their particle size or shape. It utilizes vibration to facilitate the separation of particles, typically consisting of a screen with mesh or perforated surfaces.

Types of Vibrating Screens

Linear Vibrating Screen

Uses linear motion for particle separation, commonly used for fine particle sizing.

Circular Vibrating Screen

Employs circular motion, suitable for both wet and dry applications, widely used in bulk material classification.

Elliptical Vibrating Screen

Combines advantages of linear and circular motion, providing high screening efficiency.

High-Frequency Vibrating Screen

Operates at higher frequencies for finer particle separation, often used in dewatering applications.

Inclined Vibrating Screen

Has an inclined or tilted screen surface, facilitating material movement and separation.

Banana Vibrating Screen

Features a banana-shaped screen surface, improving material retention and separation efficiency.

Dewatering Screens

Specifically designed for dewatering applications, removing excess moisture from screened material. For more information about vibrating screen models, please click to visit: What are the vibrating screen models?

Vibrating Screens Working Principle

The vibrating screen working principle involves the use of a vibrating motor or vibrator that imparts vibratory motion to the screen assembly. This motion causes particles to separate based on size, with smaller particles passing through the screen openings and larger particles remaining on the surface. Adjusting the amplitude and frequency of vibration allows control over particle separation.

Vibrating Screens Price

The price of a vibrating screen can vary depending on several factors such as the size of the screen, the type of screen, the materials used in its construction, and the manufacturer or supplier. In general, a basic vibrating screen for small-scale operations can cost anywhere from a few hundred to several thousand dollars.For details, please click to visit: How much is a vibrating screen

Vibrating screen price considerations

Several factors influence the price of vibrating screens:

Type and Size:

Different types and sizes of vibrating screens cater to varying applications, and prices may vary accordingly.

Capacity:

Higher-capacity screens designed for processing larger volumes of material may come with a higher price tag.

Features and Technology:

Advanced features, such as high-frequency operation, self-cleaning mechanisms, and automated controls, can affect the price.

Brand and Manufacturer:

Prices may differ among manufacturers and brands. Well-established brands or those offering specialized features may have higher prices.

Aftermarket vs. OEM:

Aftermarket screens may be more budget-friendly than original equipment manufacturer (OEM) parts. The choice depends on specific requirements and budget constraints.

Vibrating Screens Applications

Vibrating screens find applications in various industries:

Mining and Quarrying:

Screening and classifying minerals and aggregates.

Construction:

Sorting and separating construction materials, such as sand and gravel.

Recycling:

Sorting and classifying recycled materials like plastics, glass, and metals.

Food Processing:

Grading and separating food products in processing plants.

Chemical and Pharmaceutical:

Screening and separating chemicals and pharmaceutical products.

Aggregate and Sand Production:

Separating and grading materials in aggregate and sand production.

Dewatering:

Removing moisture from materials in dewatering applications.

Waste Management:

Sorting and classifying waste materials in recycling facilities.

Understanding the specific needs of the application and considering these factors will aid in selecting the appropriate vibrating screen for a given purpose.

How to choose vibrating screen

Through the above system introduction, we have a detailed understanding of the vibrating screen. As an important screening equipment, the vibrating screen’s screening effect will affect the use value of the product. Therefore, it is very important to choose the appropriate vibrating screen equipment. As a professional vibrating screen manufacturer, we believe that the selection should mainly consider the screening material, equipment structure, screening purpose and mineral processing requirements.

VIBRO-ENERGY ROUND SEPARATORS

Behind each Vibro-Energy Round Separator is the SWECO legacy, synonymous with top quality equipment, innovative design, and exacting standards. Since when SWECO patented the first vibratory separator to today's high yield HX™ Series Vibro-Energy Round Separators, SWECO has continued our tradition of solutions and service.

HX™ SERIES ROUND SEPARATORS
The SWECO HX Series Round Separator improves technology and performance while increasing safety and simplifying clean-up and maintenance. New features of the HX Series include…

ProGlide™ Linear Weight System
The ProGlide™ is a new top and bottom “no-tools” weight system, which presents fine proportional motion adjustment. The weights are equivalent and easy to adjust as there is only one weight to move. The single weight is moved radially to dial in on the optimal horizontal and vertical amplitude and force to improve each separator’s efficiency and throughput.

Lower Weight Guard
The new HX features a new lower weight guard to enclose the motor and lower weight assembly. The guard reduces the risk of reach-in injuries while complying with CE Standards. The new guard can be easily removed without disassembling the drive.

What it does…
Separate solids from liquids or segregate dry materials into various sizes. Particles as fine as 400 mesh (37 microns) can be screened, with up to 4 screen decks incorporated in one SWECO separator. No special flooring or foundation is needed and less working floorspace is required. Simple and efficient design requires less horsepower. Other features include long screen life and ease with which screens may be changed.

How it works…
Basically, the SWECO Separator is a vibratory screening device that vibrates about its center of mass. Vibration is accomplished by eccentric weights on the upper and lower ends of the motion-generator shaft. Rotation of the top weight creates vibration in the horizontal plane, which causes material to move across the screen cloth to the periphery. The lower weight acts to tilt the machine, causing vibration in the vertical and tangential planes. The angle of lead given the lower weight with relation to the upper weight provides variable control of the spiral screening pattern. Speed and spiral pattern of material travel over the screen cloth can be set by the operator for maximum throughput and screening efficiency of any screenable product … wet or dry … heavy or light … coarse or fine … hot or cold.
