Component Specifications

Definition
A screen surface is a critical component of screening media in industrial separation equipment, consisting of precisely engineered apertures or mesh patterns that allow particles smaller than the opening size to pass through while retaining larger particles. It functions as the primary filtration interface in vibratory, trommel, and static screening systems across multiple industries.
Working Principle
Operates on size-based separation through mechanical filtration where material is fed onto the screen surface; vibration, rotation, or gravity causes smaller particles to pass through apertures while larger particles travel across the surface for discharge.

Stainless steel (304/316), carbon steel, polyurethane, rubber, woven wire mesh, perforated plate, wedge wire
