Material Travelling Down the Sides of the Screener

In the last 2 weeks this topic came up from 2 separate endusers:

PROBLEM: complaining the material they were screening was running down the 2 sides of the screen area but not the middle. Question was: How do we FIX??

Answers:

1. One was a machine we had manufacturerd years ago and it ended up being that the CAMBER on the wirecloth support rails was TOO HIGH. Yes, it was excellent for stretching the wirecloth side to side.......BUT, inefficient screening was the BAD RESULT...material did not cover the full SQUARE FOOTAGE of the deck..equals FINES CARRYOVER.

2. Another different client had this and we actually suggested with his high angle screen 36 degrees DECLINE SLOPE. to utilize a screw type distributor feeder device to METER...the feed to the FULL WIDTH of the screen FEED BOX AREA...

Must Clarify

We actually had the customer, unbolt his longitundinal steel deck camber rails.....and reduce total height of each bar by .250"

THIS made the camber somewhat less HIGH from the centre to the sides......and the material did NOT RUN to the sides...and miss the centre of the screen BOX.

now the MATERIAL SPREADS ACROSS FULL WIDTH.....and all is HAPPY IN VIBRATING SCREEN WORLD AGAIN.

keep smiling........
