Tumbler Screen

A unique sieving machine that screens high- and low-bulk-density powders with extreme high efficiency. Its gentle tri-planar elliptical motion grades or separates material into multiple fractions — emulating hand-sieving for the finest cuts.

Extreme high efficiency Multiple grades Low noise

Overview

Gentle, high-efficiency grading into many fractions

The Tumbler Screening Machine is a unique sieving equipment capable of screening high- and low-bulk-density powders with extreme high efficiency. It helps grade or separate materials into multiple fractions as desired or based on the application. Powders or granules are continuously fed into the centre of the screen, and a tri-planar elliptical movement spreads the material out uniformly — fines pass through the sieve while coarser material moves towards the circumference of the decks.

Features & benefits

Built for precise, high-throughput sieving

Extreme high efficiency

High screening efficiency even with products having lower bulk densities.

Multiple grades

Multiple screens can be added to obtain an array of grades in a single machine.

Quick change-over

A quick clamping arrangement minimises the change-over time between screens.

Anti-choking options

Optional ball tray, software-resistant PU pipe tray and ultrasonic systems keep screens clear.

Heavy pyramid base

A heavy pyramid machine base gives better stability and quiet, low-noise running.

MS or stainless

Screens are replaceable with our existing Vibro Screens; built in MS or SS 304 / SS 316L.

Tumbler screen working principle

Working principle

Tri-planar elliptical motion

Powders or granules are fed continuously into the centre of the screen. The tri-planar elliptical movement of the screen spreads the material out uniformly across the deck, so all fines pass through the sieve while the coarser material moves towards the circumference of the decks.

A 3D weight-adjustment system lets the user set the intensity of the sieve movement to suit the material, and the entire system is driven by an electric motor and V-belts linked to the shaft. Tumbler Screens are available in 36 inch and 48 inch diameters, with an optional material of construction in mild steel (MS) or stainless steel (SS 304 / SS 316L).

FAQs

Tumbler Screen — common questions

What makes a tumbler screen so efficient?
Its tri-planar elliptical motion spreads material uniformly and emulates hand-sieving, giving extreme high efficiency even with products that have lower bulk densities — and multiple screens can be added to obtain an array of grades.
What sizes and materials are available?
Tumbler Screens are available in 36 inch and 48 inch diameters, with an optional material of construction in mild steel (MS) or stainless steel (SS 304 / SS 316L).
How do you prevent the screen from choking?
Optional anti-choking systems are available, including a ball tray, a software-resistant PU pipe tray and an ultrasonic system, to keep the mesh clear during screening.
How is the sieving intensity set?
A 3D weight-adjustment system lets you set the intensity of the sieve movement, and the machine is driven by an electric motor and V-belts linked to the shaft. A quick clamping arrangement minimises change-over time.
