Terex Minerals Processing Systems (MPS) has launched a new series of Simplicity Standard Incline (SI) screens designed for heavy-duty, medium and fine screening applications and come with many features that make the screens more versatile and highly reliable in the market.
The company has also recently announced 8-ft versions of this screen (two- and three-deck configurations like the 6 ft).
“The SI screens are intelligently engineered to provide maximum value and long life,” says Edwin Sauser, Terex MPS product manager. “The screens are versatile, reliable and have features designed for easy maintenance, such as large spacing between decks, which also allow for quick media changes.”
The SI screens are built with a robust drive mechanism and oversized bearings to handle large tonnages and a wide variety of applications. Utilised as wet or dry screens, these units have adjustable stroke and speed combinations to fit a variety of applications and are available in two- or three-deck configurations. They are fitted with woven wire media but can be converted into modular media with polyurethane, rubber media or steel plate without any cutting or welding.
The SI screens also have the option of operating with grease or oil lubrication, with an auto-lubrication system available with grease lubrication. Side plates are made of hot-rolled semi-killed/killed steel and the decks along with reinforcement plates are Huck bolted to the side plates. The robust tubular deck frames are made of hollow sections and fabricated structures.
Feed tray and discharge lips are provided with abrasion-resistant liners. The screen box is made of weld-free construction to reduce stress concentration, Sauser explains. The screen mechanism consists of a steel eccentric shaft mounted in a vibration screen with self-aligning spherical roller bearings, designed for longer bearing life. The stroke can be adjusted as per requirements by changing the counterweights mounted on the flywheels.
The screens can be converted into rinsing ones by adding the rinser kit at site. Optionally, the screens are also available with a dust encapsulation arrangement.
