Wedge Wire Trommel Screen

Share:

A trommel screen, also known as a rotary screen, is a mechanical screening machine used to separate materials, mainly in the mineral and solid-waste processing industries.

Product Details

Trommel Screens – Reliable Screening Solutions for Various Applications

A trommel screen, also called a rotary screen, is a highly efficient mechanical screening machine designed to separate materials. It is widely used in industries such as mineral processing, solid waste management, food processing, and more. Trommel screens are available in various configurations, including concentric screens, parallel arrangements, and series designs, to meet the specific needs of diverse applications.

Applications of Trommel Screens

1. Municipal and Industrial Waste

Efficiently classify solid waste by size for improved recycling and disposal.

Enhance the recovery of fuel-derived waste materials.

Aid in wastewater treatment by separating solids from liquids.

2. Mineral Processing

Grade raw materials to recover valuable minerals.

Remove dust and fine particles during ore classification.

Used in mining operations for dewatering, sizing, and grading.

3. Composting

Separate compost into size fractions, removing contaminants and incompletely processed residues.

4. Food Industry

Sort dry foods like peas, nuts, and grains by size and shape.

Handle small yet durable food items efficiently under rotational force.

5. Pulp and Paper Industry

Rotary wedge wire screens remove impurities from pulp and recover fibers.

6. Chemical Processing

Separate solids from liquids to ensure product quality and enhance process efficiency.


Advantages of Trommel Screens

Durability: Built to withstand mechanical stress, offering a longer lifespan.

Low Noise: Operates vibration-free, making it quieter than vibrating screens.

Cost-Effective: More affordable to produce compared to vibrating screens.

Versatility: Adaptable to a wide range of materials and applications.


Advantages and limitations over competitive processes:

1. Vibrating screen

Trommel screens are cheaper to produce than vibrating screens. They are vibration-free which causes less noise than vibrating screens. Trommel screens are more mechanically robust than vibrating screens allowing them to last longer under mechanical stress.

However, more material can be screened at once for a vibrating screen compared to a trommel screen. This is because only one part of the screen area of the trommel screen is utilized during the screening process whilst the entire screen is used for a vibrating screen. 

2. Roller screen

Roller screens are preferred to trommel screens when the feed rate required is high. They also cause less noise than trommel screens and require less head room. Viscous and sticky materials are easier to be separated using a roller screen than with a trommel screen.

3. Curved screen

Curved screens are able to separate finer particles (200-3000 μm) than trommel screens. 

The screening rate of a curved screen is also much higher than the trommel screen as the whole surface area of the screen is utilised.
