Sieve Bend Screen / Side Hill Screen
A sieve bend has a greater screening capactity than a flat screen due to forces exerted as material flows against the curved surface.
This curved profile wire screen is mounted in a frame with the screen openings perpendicular to the flow.
In a typical feed situation,the leading edge of the wedge wire removes the water and fine particles through the over sized particles move across the top of the screen.
Separeation size in considerably smaller than screen openings,usually about one-half the opening size.
Sieve bend screens are ideal for sizing and dewatering applications in liquid/solid separation situations.It is extensively used for fine fiber removal in the starch industry.It also is used in other industries such as food processing waste water cleanup and corn wet milling.
BENEFITS
Reduced equipment and installation costs
Low mantenance costs(No moving parts)
Better flow rate and finer fiber removal
Little space needed
Wide range of applications
Longer liftetime
FEATURES
Width,length,aperture and wire depend on flow rate and size of particles to be separated.
Slot sizes range from 0.025mm to 10mm
Screen material is typically 304/316 SS with end bars.Other materials are available upon request.
