Trommel screen, also known as a rotary screen or drum screen, is a mechanical screening machine used to separate materials by size. It consists of a cylindrical drum that is inclined and rotated to allow the material to pass through the screen openings while retaining the larger particles. The smaller particles are discharged through the screen openings, while the larger particles are guided towards the end of the drum and discharged separately.
Trommel screens are commonly used in various industries such as mining, construction, waste management, and recycling. They are effective in separating different materials such as soil, gravel, sand, and compost. The size of the screen openings can be adjusted to accommodate different sizes of particles, allowing for efficient screening and sorting.
Trommel screens are designed to handle large volumes of material and are often used in high-capacity applications. They can be stationary or mobile, depending on the specific requirement…
