We produce high quality products with the best materials! or over 36 years, Red Star has been a company dedicated to the engineering and manufacturing of screening media that are widely used in the mining and aggregates industry.
Mine screen is the core link connecting mining, mineral processing and resource utilization, which directly affects the benefits, environmental protection level and sustainable development capabilities of mining companies With the advancement of smart mines and green mining, mine screen technology will continue to iterate, providing key support for the high-quality development of the mining industry
The ore screen is designed with different apertures to classify the raw ore after mining into coarse, medium and fine grades according to the particle size, meeting the process requirements of subsequent processing (such as crushing, washing and smelting).
Accurate screening reduces repeated crushing and ineffective processing, and reduces energy consumption and time costs. For example, the ore that meets the requirements can be directly entered into the next link without the need for re-crushing.
Improve processing efficiency:
Efficient screening systems (such as vibrating screens and drum screens) can significantly increase ore processing capacity and shorten production cycles.
Extend equipment life:
By screening out large pieces of ore or impurities, downstream equipment such as crushers and mills can be protected, reducing wear and maintenance costs.
Reduce energy consumption:
Avoid excessive crushing, save energy consumption, and comply with the green mining concept.
The mine screen ensures that the final product (such as concentrate, sand and gravel aggregate) meets customer or industry standards (such as the grading requirements for construction sand), thereby increasing product added value.
Screen out impurities such as soil and gravel to improve ore purity and meet the high quality requirements of smelting or industrial applications.
Selection depends on material hardness, moisture content, particle size, and impact force:
Wet or sticky materials → Polyurethane mesh (anti-clogging)
High abrasion materials → Manganese steel woven mesh or perforated plate
High-precision screening → Stainless steel woven mesh
Heavy impact materials → Steel-edge PU panels or rubber screen panels
Choosing the correct mesh improves output and reduces downtime.
Service life varies with material abrasiveness, vibration frequency, installation tension, and screen type:
Polyurethane mesh: 3–12 months
Manganese steel mesh: 1–6 months
Stainless steel mesh: 2–8 months
Rubber panels: 4–12 months
Proper tensioning and selecting the right aperture significantly extend lifespan.
Clogging occurs due to moisture, irregular particle shapes, or unsuitable aperture designs. Prevention methods:
Use self-cleaning screens (wave or harp type)
Switch to polyurethane anti-blinding mesh
Adjust vibration amplitude and screen angle
Pre-screen wet or muddy materials
Anti-clogging solutions greatly improve screening efficiency.
Key points during replacement include:
Ensuring consistent tension across the entire screen
Checking the screen frame for deformation
Matching hook types or fastening systems with your screen machine
Cleaning the deck to remove remaining material
Proper installation reduces breakage and improves screening accuracy.
Screening efficiency can be improved by:
Choosing the right aperture and mesh material
Adjusting vibration frequency and screen inclination
Maintaining uniform material feeding
Using multi-stage screening designs
Performing regular maintenance on screen decks and meshes
Efficiency improvements of 10–30% are commonly achievable.
