Jeffrey Rader - Model Raderwave -Fines Screen

A unique operating principle
The Raderwave screen concept was born of experience and extensive research and development. A patent is pending on the uniqueness of its operation. The Raderwavedesign consists of a series of paralle shafts located beneath a flexible perforated screen deck. When the shafts rotate, a wave-like motion is created on teh screen media. As chips travel across the screen, the bed is accelerated vertically so that pins and chips are suspended, clearing the way for fines to migrate through the performations. Acceptable fiber os continuously carried forward and passed over the end.
 
A fines screen`s efficiency must be measured two ways
Results gathered from online mill testing of the Raderwave at full production rates showed extraordinary levels of fines removal and pin chip retention. Harsh winter conditions had little impact on screening efficiencies.

All mill operation conditions vary and so will screening efficiency. A mill can expect efficiency levels comparable to what is reported in the test data, and far better than what can be achieved by any other method.
 
A screen that cleans itself keeps your operation running smoothly
The constant flexing action of the Flexi-Dekscreen mat helps prevent adhesion of wet or sticky particles. In addition, the alternating wave motion slightly varies the perforation geometry, either accepting or rejecting near-size particles. When combined with the forces of high acceleration, blinding is eliminated. This self-cleaning feature is particularly beneficial in harsh climates where screen blinding or plugging has always been a problem.
 
Designed for ease of installation, reliable operation and low maintenance

• A low horsepower, variable speed drive and motorized jacking system allows wave frequency and screen inclinations to be adjusted "on the run".
• A heavy-duty high-torque cogged belt drive ensures reliability and eliminates the need for bothersome oil baths.
• The Flexi-Dekis a noncorrosive, high density, high strength material formulated for maximum flexibility and long wear life.
• Flexi-Dekreplacement is easily accomplished in two hours or less, which means very little downtime.
• Dust-tight construction provides for a clean work area.
