On the Hunt for a Screening Material Solution Challenge A customer had an existing system that used a grizzly section running perpendicular to the material flow stream. The grizzly section of this stationary unit constantly clogged up and needed to be cleaned manually by the facilities operations team. If it was not kept clean all […]

What is an Aggregate Screen? Aggregate screens are separation machines used to sort bulk aggregate materials by size after being crushed. Aggregate screening equipment uses a mesh screen to catch larger materials (such as stones) while allowing smaller particles (such as sand and gravel) to pass through holes.  These screens can have one, two, or […]

Copper Installation- Deep Dive into Efficiency                                                                                                                  The Scenario: Using the current footprint, the customer wanted to replace an existing screen in a Sag Mill copper installation with a General Kinematics STM-SCREEN™. The SAG discharge screen experienced surges of material (25%-40% solids) from the SAG mill, which overloaded their existing screen. During these frequent overload […]

The Battle Continues… Challenge A southeast construction and demolition (C&D) recycling facility was operating a rotary trommel screen as part of their outdoor C&D recycling operation. The trommel screen works through its cylinder shape to spin material that is fed through the machine. The revolving screen allows wet material to tumble around and in the […]

  Brute force vibrating screens have been a staple in the mining industry for about as long as there has been a mining industry. The easiest way to separate this bulky material is through movement dividing the material based on size. Brute force screens have long been an economical way of accomplishing this. However, as […]
