Methods for Fitting Screen Section

 

 

 

Side Tensioning

 

The screen with hook strips is mounted across the direction of material flow. Screen sections with particularly strong wires can be mounted at the feed end of the machine. Changing the screen section in 1 or 2 deck machines is fast and easy as only the defected screen section has to be exchanged. Retensioning is easy because the longitudinal sides of the machines are generally easily accessible. The tensioning bar on side tension machines also serves as wear protection. The legs of the hook strips should be shorter than the tensioning bar in order to avoid producing undersized grains.

 

 

 

End Tensioning

 

Screening is possible over the whole surface. There are no sealing problems at the borders of the screen sections, so no oversized grains can pass during sieving.

To improve the sealing of some special screens it is possible to fix a rubber strip along the longitudinal side.
