What is a Vibrating Screen?
As the name implies, vibrating screens are based on the principle of transferring vibrations to a filtering surface to separate and classify different particles by size. Regardless of the machine's design, the principle remains the same: vibration breaks the surface tension between the particles, which in turn forces them to separate. The tiny particles, known as "fine", then fall through the filtering surface. Meanwhile, large particles are carried over the surface of the screen. It is an important application in a large number of industries, particularly mineral processing.

- Volumetric Screeners
How Does a Vibrating Screen Work?
The vibrating screen works by using the double rotational vibration generated by the vibrator. The upper rotating weight of the vibrator makes the screen surface vibrate in a plane, while the lower rotating weight makes the screen surface vibrate the conical surface. The combined effect is that the surface of the screen produces a double rotational vibration. The trajectory of the vibrations was a complicated spatial curve. The curve is projected as a circle in the horizontal plane, and projected as an ellipse in the vertical plane. The amplitude can be changed by adjusting the excitation force of the top and bottom rotating weights. Adjusting the spatial phase angle of the top and bottom weights can change the shape of the screen surface movement trajectory curve and change the material movement trajectory on the screen surface.
