Factors To Consider When Purchasing A Trommel Machine

July 6, 2018 by Jarred

Trommel screens are mostly used to separate materials of different sizes. They are widely used in the construction, mining, agriculture and recycling industries. With different screening machines on the market today, it can be very difficult and tedious to select the best one for your needs. It is important to understand how this equipment works. Below are important factors to consider when purchasing a trommel screen.

The primary use

Depending on what you want to use the equipment for, attaining maximum functionality will be attained when you select one that suits your activities. Most screening machines work very well when separating dry materials. Others have features that help separate wet materials with ease. It is therefore important to research how the equipment you want works and how well it can meet your needs.

The trommel size

The drum is the cylindrical part of screening equipment where you feed the materials for separation. The size will very much determine the amount of material your equipment can sort in a certain amount of time. The overall size is in two dimensions: the length and diameter. Most manufacturers indicate the size of the drum on the equipment, making it easy to select the best for your needs.

The trommel design

There are two different designs of screening equipment.  The whole drum trommel and the Inclined screen cloth segment trommel. For the whole drum design, you need to change the complete drum for different applications. The other design has an inclined cylinder that has replaceable segments that do the separation of various materials.

The durability

You will need a machine that serves you for a good period of time. It is good to purchase the equipment from a reputable company. This will serve as a guarantee that you purchase a quality machine. You can research the screening equipment online, compare options, and select one that meets your needs.

The conveying system

After the separation, the different types of materials go via separate conveyor systems out of the machine. Some screening equipment has inbuilt conveyor systems, while others require separate conveyor systems to be attached.

The sorting ability

Most of the screening equipment on the market is able to separate two different materials by size. However, there are larger options that can separate three grades of material.

The in-feed hopper size

This is the channel you use to feed the materials for sorting. The size will determine just how much material you can feed into the screening machine at one go. Larger hopper sizes make loading easier and working quicker.

Your budget

Your budget is crucial when purchasing a screening machine. There are many affordable brands on the market. It is not wise to select equipment based on pricing only – but based on a combination of all factors.

Most manufacturers have websites that contain important information on the specifics of their screening machines.  All concerns are addressed through these websites, saving you time and money. You will also be able to read reviews from other clients and thus easily select the best trommel machine.
