Screens are used for separating crushed materials in operation. They are used of separation of desired size products in crushing and screening plants.

What Is a Standard (Inclined) Screen and How Does It Work?

A standard screen is a vibrating screen usually installed at 15–25 degrees, producing circular motion with an eccentric shaft drive. Inclination and circular motion together move the material quickly and keep the screen deck clean.

With high capacity, simple construction and easy maintenance, it is the most common screen type in quarries and crushing plants.

Applications

  • Separating chippings fractions in quarries
  • Closed-circuit screening in crushing circuits
  • Producing sub-base material
  • Sand and gravel plants

Selection Checklist

  • Number of decks and screen size (width × length) chosen for capacity
  • Inclination and stroke adjusted to the material
  • Screen media: impact-resistant on top, high open area below
  • Springs and bearings checked regularly

Frequently Asked Questions

How can inclined screen capacity be increased?

With the right screen media and open area, correct inclination and stroke, even feed across the width and prevention of clogging.

Why do screen bearings fail early?

Wrong bearing type, too little or too much grease and belt tension errors are the main causes; screen-specific bearings must be used.
