Screening Setup on Impact Crusher for Optimal Sizing
Setting a screen on the output of an impact crusher is a practical way to ensure that the final product meets specific size requirements. By adding a screening system, the crushed material can be sorted, separating out oversized pieces that may need recirculation back to the crusher for further size reduction.
The most common choice is a vibrating screen, which can be multi-decked to create multiple size fractions simultaneously. It helps control particle size distribution and improves product consistency. Recirculating oversized material ensures efficient utilization of the crusher, reducing waste and achieving uniform output.
Key considerations include selecting the right screen aperture size to match product requirements, ensuring the crusher and screen capacities align to avoid bottlenecks, and implementing proper dust control measures. Integrating a screen with the impact crusher requires careful design, particularly when considering maintenance and the potential need for automation to enhance workflow efficiency. This setup is ideal for operations that require a consistent, high-quality output with strict sizing control.
