Unlike conventional finger screens, the highly efficient TAPER-SLOT® Screen, with patented lateral wedge members offers the following benefits for superior screening performance:
- HANG-UP ELIMINATION
Lateral wedge deflectors prevent material from shifting laterally and catching under or wrapping around finger tips, thus allowing the screen to remain clean for maximum screening efficiency. - 2. ACCURATE SIZING
Lateral wedge deflectors prevent longer, often oversized materials from shifting sideways under a finger tip and falling into the accepts. - 3. ULTRA–RIGID
Lateral wedge deflectors prevent undesirable “finger–bending” and function as gussets under each finger to provide the ultimate in rigidity for long screen life. - 4. SELF-RELIEVING
Staggered fingers and divergent openings allow particles the opportunity to self-relieve / cam-out.
- No plugging, blinding, or hang-ups common to conventional perforated or wire mesh screens
- Accurate sizing
- Screen multiple sizes per unit
- High throughput performance
- Easy to install, maintain, and operate
- Screen sections are modular and easily changeable
- Eliminates belt conveyors
- Does not "fluff" or increase material volumes of lightweight materials such as paper
- No periodic stops or re-tunes due to material wrapping around fingers, discs, shafts, gears, chains or sprockets
- Safe. Unlike trommels (rotating perforated cylinders), the TAPER-SLOT® Screen isn`t dangerous to fix and maintain
- Minimum horsepower and operating costs
- Distributes material flow at a regulated rate to downstream equipment such as a sort line or grinder
