How does a shaker screen work?

2024-05-20 Visits:54

Vibrating screens, also known as Shaker Screen or vibratory screen, are mechanical screening machines used to separate materials by particle size. They accomplish this by applying vibration to the screens, causing particles to stratify and separate according to size. The primary components of a vibrating screen include a screen mesh, a vibrator mechanism, and a deck which holds the screen cloth.

The working principle of vibrating screen for coal mines is to use vibration motion to separate particles. The vibrator produces circular vibration or linear vibration, causing the screen surface and the vibrating screen to vibrate together. The vibration trajectory of circular vibration is nearly circular, and RDQ series vibrators are generally used, Circular screens operate on a circular motion, making them suitable for both wet and dry screening applications. They are versatile and widely used in the mining industry for various materials, including aggregates, ores, and industrial minerals. Linear vibration: the exciting forces cancel each other in the direction parallel to the axis, and stack into a resultant force in the direction perpendicular to the axis, so the motion trajectory of the screen machine is straight Line, use ZDQ exciter. These screens employ linear motion, where the material moves forward in a straight line. They are ideal for screening fine materials and are commonly used in the processing of coal, iron ore, and other minerals.

TSX shaker screen are widely used, and there are many kinds of vibrating screen. They are used for all kinds of vibrating screens, flip screens, circular vibrating screen, arc screens, centrifuges, and other washing equipment required for desliming, media removal, dehydration, and classification, and they are also widely used in coal preparation plants. TSX coal vibrating screen has the characteristics of long service life, simple structure, high efficiency, and small floor area. For the factors such as the particle size and moisture of the material, the banana screen is the most appropriate for the coal preparation plant. For the block, the circular vibrating screen and the banana screen can be used. For the desliming, the linear screen and the banana screen can be used. A shaker screen is an important type of coal preparation machinery, which can operate under harsh conditions.

Here’s how it works:

Feed Inlet: Coal is fed onto the vibrating screen via a feed inlet located at the top of the screen deck.

Screen Deck: Large particles are retained on the screen deck and are gradually separated from smaller particles as they move down the length of the screen deck due to the vibrating motion.

Vibration Mechanism: The screen deck is mounted on vibrating motors or shaker motors that generate intense vibrations. These vibrations cause the coal particles to move along the screen deck and separate based on size.

Separation of Particles: The vibrating motion of the screen deck causes larger coal particles to move towards the top of the screen deck, while smaller particles pass through the screen mesh and are collected beneath the screen.

Adjustments: The intensity and frequency of vibrations can be adjusted to optimize the separation efficiency based on the characteristics of the coal being processed.

Screen Mesh: The screen mesh size can also be adjusted to control the size of particles that pass through the screen, allowing for precise separation of coal particles according to size.

Discharge: The separated coal particles are collected in different discharge chutes or conveyor belts, depending on their size and quality.

The particles larger than the sieve opening remain on the sieve surface, which is called the material above the sieve, and the particles smaller than the sieve opening pass through the sieve opening, which is called the material under the sieve. Feed the materials to be separated through the feed inlet (the feed inlet at the top of the circular vibrating screen) to ensure that the cover plate, screen mesh structure and base are fastened with snap rings. Due to the unbalanced weight components, the vibrating motor will be energized, causing vibration movement, and the screen mesh will start to vibrate. Then, the materials fed into the hopper will pass through the screen according to the particle size, and the materials larger than the size of the screen mesh will be left on the screen surface and discharged from the coarse material outlet, Materials smaller than the mesh size fall into the lower layer. According to the design of the vibrating screen, you can configure 1-5 layers of screens to achieve particle size classification. Overall, the vibrating screen in a coal mine operates by separating coal particles according to their size and quality, helping to ensure efficient coal processing and quality control in the mining operation.
