Screen Bed Depth of Material

To calculate the bed depth of material the following formula is used. The allowable depth of bed should not exceed 5 times the wire cloth opening when screening material weighing 1.6t/m or 4 times the wire cloth opening when screening material weighing 0.8t/m Note: For a Horizontal Screen use an average travel speed of 820 metres per hour For an Inclined Screen use an average travel speed of 1820 metres per hour Actual metres/hour will vary depending on material, stroke, speed and slope D = D = T = C = M= W= Tx C MxW Bed Depth Tonnes per hour Bulk Density Speed of Travel Width of Screen

General Notes
Bed depth calculations are recommended to determine the optimum width of the screen. If the bed depth is too deep, the material will not see the screen surface. Fine screening bed depth is very important particularly when washing to ensure sprayed water penetrates the full depth of material. The first 1/3 of the screen will allow 80% of the material to pass through. The balance is used to take the near size material to provide a 95% efficiency. Sticky, Clay like material, UG 2, Gypsum require a high frequency linear horizontal to slightly inclined screen. The Osborn Obex Screen should be considered for light duty. For heavier duty, the Osborn IFE exciter drive would be the preferred screen. The width x length of the required screen is calculated using our computer programme and we recommend that you contact Osborn for assistance.

The Osborn heavy duty SUPERKING Screens are frequently used in primary screening and scalping operations and have proved to be exceptionally reliable in the mining and quarrying industries. Generally operating at 1920 installation angle the SUPERKING produces a maximum of 12mm stroke at around 5Gs. The SUPERKING has fully adjustable counterweights for optimum screening efficiency. Available in single, double, triple or 4 deck configurations these screens are equally efficient for screening dry or wet gravel, sand crushed stone and all types of ore. The drive is a self contained vibrator unit complete with a heavy duty steel shaft and fitted with grease lubricated self-aligning spherical roller bearings. The unit is completely enclosed and dust tight. To ensure that the feed material spreads across the full width of the screen deck the SUPERKING screens are fitted with screen boxes as standard. Other machines are supplied with a feed box arrangement as an option.

VIBRATING SHAFTS Each tough, eccentric, vibrator shaft is precision-machined from 1045 steel for extra-long service.

WIDE-FACE HELICAL GEARS Timing gears are premium-quality, single helical design precision-cut from 4140 heattreated steel. Wide-faced gear teeth distribute load much more effectively than spur gears, promote, smooth, quiet, long-lived operation under heavy loading

OIL FLINGER

DOUBLE-LIP SEAL Retains oil and prevents contaminants from entering vibrator mechanism. Seals and seal sleeve are easily replaceable when worn.

OIL-SPLASH LUBRICATION Through-flow, oil splash system provides superior lubrication of gears and bearings. Large oil reservoir, extending the entire length of vibrator housing, dissipates heat rapidly, lowers bearing temperatures for longer bearing service life

OSBORN IFE TRISOMAT SCREEN

The Osborn IFE Trisomat Screens are especially designed for handling difficult materials. The Flip-Flop screening action prevents pegging and blinding even when screening damp sticky materials. The Trisomat exhibits alternate tensioning and relaxing of the screen mesh with a full circular motion at the feed end, which induces both vertical stratification and forward transportation in the feed producing rapid separation and removal of fines. In the center section of the screen deck, the flip-flop action occurs while at the discharge end, a reverse elliptical motion slows the reduced flow to encourage the separation of the near-size particles.

Raw Coal Coke Fines Compost Sand & Gravel Wood Chips Steelworks Slag

Coal & Coke Plants, Composting Plants, Steelworks, Sand & Gravel Plants, Refuse Recovery Plants, Scrap Recovery Plants and in the Wood Industry etc, the Trisomat Screen is highly efficient and is available from 800mm wide by 3600mm long up to the King Size Trisomat at 3000mm wide x 9600mm long.

Feed end The circular motion at the feed end assists in stratification of even the most difficult materials and conveying the feed material forward.

Central section A linear motion in the central section of the deck area ensures optimum contact between material and mesh thus improving screening efficiency.

Discharge end The reverse elliptical movement at the discharge end retards the material and maintains a bed depth ensuring efficient near-size particle extraction.

Screening Terminology
The following terms are some of those typically used in mechanical screening. Amplitude A measurement of the screen cloth as it vertically peaks to its tallest height and troughs to its lowest point. Measured in multiples of the acceleration constant g (g-force). Blinding When material plugs into the open slots of the screen cloth Screen Media Material defined by mesh size. It can be made from stainless steel, polyurethane, rubber or punched steel plate. Deck A frame that holds the screen cloth in place. Can be multiple decks. Frequency Measured in Hertz (Hz) or revolutions per minute (RPM) and is the number of times that the screen cloth peaks and troughs within a second. Gradation Material grading. Also referred to as the cut. Given a feed material in an initial state, the material can be defined to have a particle size distribution. Grading is removing the maximum and minimum material sizes by way of mesh selection. Stratification This phenomenon occurs as vibration is passed through the bed of material causing the larger material to rise and the finer material to descend within the bed. Scalping Refers to the removal of the larger size particles from the incoming material. G-Force Refers to the force of acceleration on the screen.
