In the feed production industry, achieving high screening precision, material compatibility, and structural stability is critical for maintaining consistent product quality and efficient processing. The circular vibrating screen is emerging as an indispensable tool in this space, providing a unique combination of versatility, structural integrity, and high throughput performance—especially for fine to medium particle separation.
What is a Circular Vibrating Screen?
A circular vibrating screen utilizes an eccentric block or shaft-driven vibration mechanism to move material in a circular motion across the screen surface. This movement improves material stratification and flow, allowing particles of various sizes to pass through multiple mesh layers efficiently. It is ideally suited for screening bulk feed materials such as grains, powdered additives, and even sticky or semi-liquid substances.
Broad Mesh Range: From 10 Mesh to 80 Mesh
The circular vibrating screen excels in handling a wide range of mesh sizes, particularly from 10 mesh (coarse) to 80 mesh (fine). This flexibility ensures that whether you’re removing oversized contaminants or classifying particles into multiple grades, the machine can be tailored to meet your exact screening requirements. This makes it perfect for processing feed ingredients such as soybean meal, corn powder, bran, vitamins, and premixes.
Efficient Throughput: 500–1000 kg/h
Despite its compact footprint, the circular vibrating screen delivers impressive performance, with a throughput capacity ranging from 500 to 1000 kilograms per hour. This makes it well-suited for small to medium-sized feed production lines that demand both speed and accuracy without compromising on product quality.
Universal Screening for All Types of Materials
One of the standout features of this screening system is its exceptional adaptability. It is capable of screening virtually any type of granular, powdered, or even semi-liquid material within a certain viscosity and density range. Whether the feed material is dry and free-flowing or moist and slightly adhesive, the circular vibrating screen maintains high separation efficiency.
Unique Structural Advantages
The performance of this machine goes beyond its vibration mechanics. Its physical structure is also optimized for long-term reliability and processing stability:
R-arc and spherical design: These structural contours increase the screen’s surface strength and reduce stress concentration, minimizing deformation during long hours of operation.
Vertical welding: This method reinforces the machine’s framework, enhances durability, and ensures a consistent vibration pattern, even under heavy loads.
Stable and precise operation: The combination of curved geometry and robust welding creates a more balanced, low-noise, and vibration-consistent platform, essential for high-precision screening in feed production.
Applications in the Feed Industry
In feed production, maintaining accurate particle sizing is essential for nutrient balance, digestibility, and blending uniformity. Circular vibrating screens are widely used in the pre-processing and post-processing stages of feed manufacturing, including raw material sorting, pellet size classification, and additive blending. Their adaptability and low maintenance needs make them a go-to choice for feed mills seeking reliable performance with minimal downtime.
