Carbon steel vibrating screen

What is Carbon Steel Vibrating Screen?

Carbon steel vibrating screen are used to process low to medium corrosivity, high density, dry, or somewhat abrasive industrial raw materials or granular materials. The screening particle size range is between 2 mm and 50 mm, and grading can be achieved depending on the screen configuration. This equipment can achieve screening and particle size separation, while also serving as a material conveyor and loosener, ensuring consistent particle size in the final product.

Carbon steel vibrating screen is a device that uses the principle of vibration to screen granular or powdered materials. Its main structural components are made of carbon steel. Carbon steel is an iron-carbon alloy with a carbon content of less than 2.11%. It has good strength, toughness and processing properties, which enables the carbon steel vibrating screen to withstand a certain material weight and vibration impact.

How does Carbon Steel Vibrating Screen work?

Carbon steel vibrating screen generates vibrations through the exciter, causing the screen box to vibrate horizontally or obliquely. The material on the screen surface is affected by the excitation force and gravity, jumping on the screen surface and moving forward. Materials larger than the screen hole are retained on the screen surface, and materials smaller than the screen hole fall through the screen into the next layer or are discharged.

What types of Carbon Steel Vibrating Screens are there?

Circular carbon steel vibrating screens are suitable for screening granules, powders, and finely screening slurries.

Structural features: Both the screen box and screen mesh are circular. This shape of carbon steel vibrating screen results in a relatively symmetrical structure and uniform force distribution during operation.

Motion path: The motion path is relatively regular, which is beneficial for fine screening of materials with small particle size differences.

Advantages: Due to its circular motion characteristics, the material distribution on the screen is relatively uniform, and local accumulation is less likely. It is suitable for filtering slurry materials, and its motion effectively promotes liquid-solid separation and prevents screen clogging.

Application scenarios: Used for screening materials with high precision requirements in industries such as fine chemicals, food, and pharmaceuticals. It is also suitable for filtering and classifying various slurries and suspensions.

Rectangular carbon steel vibrating screens excel at handling large volumes of coarse-grained materials.

Structural features: Utilizing a square screen box and rectangular screen mesh, the structure is robust, with a large effective screening area and high throughput per unit time.

Motion path: The drive system generates strong linear vibration, causing the material to jump forward in a straight line on the screen surface, resulting in high screening efficiency. The four corners are reinforced to effectively cope with stress.

Advantages: Excellent overall strength and impact resistance; effectively breaks up slightly agglomerated materials with initial moisture content; less prone to screen clogging.

Applications: Used in mining, building materials, metallurgy, and other industries; suitable for primary classification and impurity removal of large particles such as coal, ore, and gravel.

Features of Carbon Steel Vibrating Screen

Carbon steel, as a common and relatively inexpensive metal, makes carbon steel vibrating screens cheaper to manufacture than those made of stainless steel or other special alloys. Carbon steel itself possesses good strength and toughness, enabling it to withstand significant impact and material weight. Under normal use and maintenance conditions, carbon steel vibrating screens can operate stably for extended periods without easily breaking down. Through proper vibration parameter settings and screen selection, carbon steel vibrating screens can effectively screen various materials and accurately classify them according to particle size, meeting the production needs of different industries.

Structure of Carbon Steel Vibrating Screen

The carbon steel vibrating screen consists of a screen box, vibrator, support device, and motor. Each component performs its own function to screen, remove impurities, and filter materials.

Screen box: The screen box is the core component of the vibrating screen, usually welded with carbon steel plates, with high strength and rigidity.

Screen: Installed on the screen box for screening materials. The material, mesh and hole type of the screen are selected according to the characteristics of the material and the screening requirements.

Vibrator: Provides a vibration source, usually an electric vibration motor.

Suspension device: Suspend the screen box on the frame to make the screen box vibrate.

Base: Support the entire equipment and provide an installation foundation.

Application scenarios of carbon steel vibrating screen

Carbon steel vibrating screens are used for screening dry, bulk materials such as coal, ore, sand, and grain, or for particle size classification and solid-liquid separation. The following are common applications of the product.

Building materials industry: used to screen building materials such as sand and gravel, and separate materials of different particle sizes to meet the requirements of material particle size in construction. For example, in a concrete mixing station, a carbon steel vibrating screen can screen out coarse sand and fine sand that meet the requirements for the production of concrete of different strength grades.

Mining field: Widely used in the preliminary screening and grading of ores. The mined ore can be classified according to particle size to provide suitable raw materials for subsequent beneficiation and processing procedures.

Agricultural processing: used for screening of agricultural products such as grains and seeds. For example, at grain purchasing stations, carbon steel vibrating screens can remove impurities and empty grains from grains to ensure the quality of grains; in seed companies, they are used to screen out plump and uniformly sized seeds to improve the germination rate of seeds.
