FINGER-SCREEN™ FOR METAL RECOVERY

Streamline Scrap Processing

General Kinematics’ High-Energy Primary or Secondary Screens for Metal Recovery have successfully conquered scrap processing challenges where trommel and disc screens can’t keep up. The FINGER-SCREEN™ for Metal Recovery uses vibratory action to separate fines from shredder material. The tapered finger deck eliminates jamming and prevents poking materials from entering chutes further down the stream. The Two-Mass, low-horsepower design has few moving parts for minimal maintenance and maximum uptime.

We manufacture our metal screeners with superior wear resistance and durability, compared to rotary trommels or star-type screens, to handle the abuse of more difficult applications like ASR scrap recycling.

The Heart of Your Sorting System

Increased reliability, tonnage capacity, and unsurpassed wear resistance make GK’s FINGER-SCREEN™ the heart of sorting systems worldwide. General Kinematics’ unique finger deck works alongside our signature Two-Mass vibratory drive design to deliver highly efficient separation and classification. The vibratory action spreads material throughout the deck, lowering the bed depth to maximize the utilization of the screen area for optimal commodity separation.

GK’s FINGER-SCREEN™ is available in standard sizes with widths up to 72 inches (1800mm) and custom lengths engineered based on your application. GK’s custom-engineered primary screens can process high-volume production rates up to 450 yards per hour (345 cubic meters per hour).

Proven Results in ASR Screening

GK’s FINGER-SCREEN™ for Metal Recovery has been used in automotive recycling applications when other metal screens couldn’t keep up. GK’s metal screeners can handle larger automotive parts without jamming or blinding. The FINGER-SCREEN™ can regulate ferrous and non-ferrous metals, glass, fibers, rubber, plastics, and other materials associated with automotive shredder residue (ASR).

Features:

  • Vibratory motion evenly spreads material for maximum classification efficiency.
  • Staggered fingers prevent material bypass.
  • Cascading material flow helps separate entrapped items.
  • Unique cam-out surface helps eliminate catching and binding.
  • Tapered fingers gradually classify and free-tangled materials.
  • Custom-engineered to meet your specific classification requirements.
  • Modular deck construction permits easy deck replacement.
