Perforated Plates

 

Perforated plate is another means of achieving your screening goals.  Different applications call for different screen media and perforated plate may be an economical solution if abrasive material is causing premature wear.

 

When looking at perforated plate for screen media, there are many options available. Below are some of the factors to consider when looking at perforated plate.

 

WHY USE PERFORATED PLATE? CONSIDER THE ADVANTAGES:

 

  • Screen Life – special alloyed steel provides wear resistance to outlast any oil-tempered wire cloth.
  • Less Down Time – this means fewer change-outs during production which are extremely costly.
  • Ease of Maintenance – perforated screens will not stretch so no re-tensioning is required during service life on the screen section.
  • Screen Frame Protection – blanked areas are designed and engineered into perforated plate to protect screen support frame.
  • Greater Choice – round, hexagon, square or slotted; straight or staggered center; precise, flexible configuration and virtually infinite pattern possibilities.
  • Wider Material Thickness Range – wide range of thickness for each opening size. Bar width and plate thickness can be separately specified to attain desired open space while maintaining increased wear life.
  • Excellent Screening Efficiency – perforations are staggered in direction of flow. The percent open area of Perforated Screen Plate equals or exceeds the percent open area in wire cloth in many cases.
  • Resistance to Plugging – screen plate features clean walled, conical, closely and uniformly spaced perforations. This results in a minimum of blinding, because material is always passing through a progressively larger opening.

Clamp Bars

 

Over the years, Grant Aggregate has supplied clamp bars for most brands of screen decks. We carry a wide variety of profiles in stock and have the ability to custom make any size to suit your needs. If wear on your clamp bars is a problem, we can rubber line or fabricate your clamp bar with a protective piece of wear plate.

Channel Rubber

 

Grant Aggregate supplies channel rubber ranging in size from ¼” to 1”. We offer standard, heavy duty, round top, flat top and polyurethane. When changing screens, it is important to ensure the crown bar is fully engaged in channel rubber and is consistent in height. Channel rubber acts as a “cushion” and absorbs the shock of impact during sizing.

Coil and Leaf Springs

 

Grant Aggregate carries a variety of coil springs in stock. We also have many of the accessory items that coincide with their use. If you are looking for coil springs and are having trouble sourcing them, we offer custom springs manufactured to your specification. Grant Aggregate also manufactures leaf springs for Cedarapids screen plants.
