Mechanical screening, often just called screening, is the practice of taking granulated or crushed ore material and separating it into multiple grades by particle size. This practice occurs in a variety of industries such as mining and mineral processing , agriculture, pharmaceutical, food, plastics, and recycling.
A trommel screen, also known as a rotary screen, is a mechanical screening machine used to separate materials, mainly in the mineral and solid-waste processing industries. [1] It consists of a perforated cylindrical drum that is normally elevated at an angle at the feed end. [ 2 ]
Film screening, the displaying of a motion picture or film; High-throughput screening, a method for scientific experimentation especially used in drug discovery; Mechanical screening, the practice of taking granulated ore material and separating it into multiple grades by particle size; Smoke screening, blanketing an area with smoke to provide ...
A mobile screening equipment with a single deck. [10] A mobile screening equipment with a double decker screen. [11] Stationary screens are typically used in plants and not moved around. In the mineral processing industry, equipment often has to be moved to different sites depending on the jobs taken up by a company.
Gyratory equipment, used in mechanical screening and sieving is based on a circular motion of the machine. Unlike other methods, gyratory screen operates in a gentler manner and is more suited to handle fragile things, enabling it to produce finer products. [1] This method is applicable for both wet and dry screening.
Tumbler screening is a separation method that uses three-dimensional elliptical movement to separate very fine particles from larger ones.. Tumbler screening is a mechanical screening technique used in many fields that deal with raw materials and building materials for process and reuse. [1]
Prospector operating a drywasher, called a papago. The rocks and dirt are placed in the higher compartment. Below and to the back is a bellows made of canvas. This is pumped to blow through the screening and thus blow away loose dirt while the heavy gold remains. Pinos Altos, New Mexico, 1940. A drywasher is a common desert mining tool for gold ...
