Vibrating screen is a screening equipment widely used in the field of industrial production. It not only has the advantages of good screening effect and strong processing capacity, but also features simple operation and convenient maintenance. However, in the actual production process, the screening efficiency of vibrating screens is not always as high as people expect. The reason is that the screening efficiency of the vibrating screen is related to multiple factors, and the influencing factors are complex, which need to be explored one by one. This article will introduce several main factors that affect the screening efficiency of vibrating screens.
1. Material properties
The properties of materials such as particle size, density and moisture content have a significant impact on the screening efficiency of vibrating screens. Materials with larger particle sizes are more likely to pass through the screen, while those with smaller particle sizes are more difficult to do so. Materials with higher density tend to accumulate at the bottom of the screen during the screening process, affecting the screening effect. Materials with a high moisture content tend to stick together and form lumps during the screening process, which also affects the screening efficiency.
2. Selection and configuration of vibrating screens
The selection and configuration of vibrating screens also have a significant impact on their screening efficiency. In practical applications, it is necessary to select the appropriate vibrating screen model and configuration based on factors such as the nature of the material, processing capacity, and working environment. For instance, for materials with larger particle size and greater processing capacity, large vibrating screens can be selected. For materials with smaller particle sizes and smaller processing volumes, small vibrating screens can be selected. At the same time, it is also necessary to select appropriate vibrators, screens and other key components according to the nature and requirements of the materials to improve the screening efficiency.
3. Factors such as dust and moisture
Dust, moisture and other factors are also important factors affecting the screening efficiency of vibrating screens. Excessive dust can clog the sieve holes and affect the screening efficiency. Excessive moisture can cause particles to stick together and form clumps, resulting in the phenomenon of screen sticking. Therefore, when using a vibrating screen, it is necessary to pay attention to effective dust-proof and water-proof measures to ensure that the vibrating screen can work normally and the screening efficiency can be improved.
