A mobile screening plant is a portable screening system designed to classify materials by size, particularly used in the construction, mining, and recycling industries. Unlike stationary screening plants, mobile screening plants offer flexibility due to their portability, allowing them to be used in various job sites.
Working Principle:
Mobility: Mobile screening plants are mounted on wheeled or tracked chassis, making them easy to transport by truck or trailer to different job sites. This feature is particularly advantageous for temporary projects or situations requiring work at multiple locations.
Feeding Process: Materials are fed into the screening plant using excavators, loaders, or belt conveyors. The feeding process is adjusted according to the type of material and the capacity of the screening plant.
Screening Process: The fed materials are classified by size using vibrating screens or other screening systems. Screens consist of layers with different mesh sizes, separating materials into large, medium, and small sizes.
Classification and Separation: After screening, materials are divided into different size groups. These groups are transported to storage areas or the next processing stage using belt conveyors or other transportation systems.
Power and Control: Mobile screening plants can operate using diesel engines or external power sources. Modern mobile screening plants are equipped with automation systems and remote control features, making them easier to operate.
Advantages:
Mobility: Easy and quick transportation to different job sites.
Quick Setup: Faster installation and commissioning compared to stationary plants.
Versatility: Suitable for processing various types and sizes of materials.
Cost Efficiency: Reduces logistics and setup costs due to portability.
Applications:
Mining (ore screening and classification)
Construction (aggregate screening, recycling of concrete waste)
Recycling (processing construction and demolition waste)
Quarries (aggregate production)
