Sherbrooke Stargears - Material Separation Star Screens
Our star-shaped screens (also called `Stargears`) are widely used for different applications to remove fine material, dust and earth. In fields such as construction, renovation and demolition (CRD), earth is removed to be reused as a non-structuring material or as cover material for landfills. When treating organic matter, only the organic matter - sand/earth and small pieces of glass - will be removed. As for selective collection (blue bin or `single stream`), only small pieces of fibre and plastic will be removed.
Our star-shaped screens have three main components or groups of components: the chassis, the drive wheels and the screening section.
The chassis is obviously heavy duty and made of laser-cut steel plates to obtain a superior degree of assembly precision. Once assembled, the various parts ensure a sturdy and rigid chassis.
The screening section is made of several shafts on which are assembled star-shaped screens (where the name "Stargear" comes from). The stars are made of a rubber composite with a hardness selected for the correct type of application and environment in which they will be used. The final assembly of shafts and stars will ensure quick and efficient changing and/or maintenance.
Lastly, the traction system will be operated by pulleys and timing belts to ensure synchronization and ease of maintenance for the different drive components.
