Dewatering screen is a device used for solid-liquid separation and dehydration. It separates solid particles from liquid through vibration and centrifugal force to achieve dehydration effect. It is widely used in many industries, including mining, metallurgy, chemical industry, environmental protection and building materials. The dewatering screen working principle will be introduced in detail below.
Dewatering screen usually consists of screen frame, screen mesh, vibrator, feed port, discharge port and bracket. When solid materials with higher water content enter the dewatering screen through the feed port, the vibrator of the dewatering screen starts to vibrate, causing the entire screen frame to vibrate.
The vibration force causes the solid particles to move on the screen and gradually form a thin layer. The formation of thin layers facilitates mutual contact between solid particles and the drainage of moisture. At the same time, vibration can also prevent solid particles from accumulating on the screen and keep the screen clear.
Under the action of vibration, the moisture is discharged through the pores of the screen, while the solid particles remain on the screen. Due to the discharge of water, the moisture content of the solid material is reduced, achieving the dehydration effect.
In addition, the dewatering screen also uses centrifugal force to accelerate the solid-liquid separation process. When the screen frame vibrates, the solid particles are affected by centrifugal force and move to one side of the screen frame. Due to the combined action of gravity and centrifugal force of solid particles, the solid particles gradually move toward the discharge port on the screen frame.
Finally, the dehydrated solid material is discharged from the discharge port, completing the process of solid-liquid separation and dehydration. The discharged solid material has a lower moisture content and is more suitable for transportation, storage and subsequent processing.
The working principle of the Dewatering screen is based on the synergistic effect of vibration and centrifugal force, which achieves efficient solid-liquid separation and dehydration effects by separating solid particles from moisture. At the same time, the vibration force and screen pore size of the dewatering screen can be adjusted and optimized according to different materials and processing requirements to achieve the best dewatering effect.
To sum up, the dewatering screen achieves solid-liquid separation and dehydration through vibration and centrifugal force. It plays an important role in many industries, providing reliable solutions to improve production efficiency, reduce costs and protect the environment.
