Finding a perfect fit for fine screening

Haver & Boecker Niagara offer variety of fast-delivery screen media options for fine-screen applications

HAVER & Boecker Niagara offer a wide range of fine screen media options for a variety of applications, including frac and silica sand, salt, perlite, potash, roofing granules and steelmaking coal.

The portfolio features options for cut sizes as small as 120 mesh and for temperatures as high as 315°C. Customers also benefit from fast delivery, with most products ready to ship in two-to-three days from the company’s North American production facility.

‘Haver & Boecker Niagara have a long history of benefiting their customers through the manufacturing of screen media for fine-screening applications,’ said Karen Thompson, president of Haver & Boecker Niagara’s North American and Australian operations.

‘Our wide breadth of screen media dedicated to fine screening applications means producers can find the perfect fit to effectively meet their requirements. We work closely with every customer to find the ideal solution for their operation.’

Haver & Boecker Niagara’s fine-screening portfolio includes Ty-Ger wire, Ton-Cap, Tyler Mineral Processing screens, profile wire, single-layer and multi-layer sections.

The company’s signature Ty-Ger wire contains high-tensile spring steel for durability as well as wear and abrasion resistance. Ty-Ger Wire is available in wire diameters from 0.005in to 0.162in (0.127mm to 4.11mm) and is suitable for fine-screening applications requiring less corrosion resistance but higher wear and tear resistance than stainless steel.

Ton-Cap is designed for high-tonnage applications requiring increased open area. The media features distinct, slotted openings, ranging from 3in (76mm) to 50 mesh, to ensure the ideal fit for a variety of classifying applications. The durable sections handle high capacities without an increase in wire diameter.

Tyler Mineral Processing screens fit industrial separators with automatic tensioning, giving producers sharp separations. The high-efficiency media can handle temperatures up to 315°C and is suitable for applications where sizing accuracy is critical. The screens can be manufactured with abrasion-resistant Ty-Ger wire for longer wear life.

Producers in heavy screening applications where a small opening is required can benefit from Profile Wire, or wedge wire. The custom wire design features tapered openings to increase efficiency and its construction allows for precise sizing as well as a reduction of blinding and pegging.

Multi-layer screen sections are suitable for fine screening when additional strength is needed to resist impact, weight or tension. The media consists of two or more layers placed in the same hook. This design provides a self-cleaning action when the two layers come into contact during vibration.

Haver & Boecker Niagara also provide single-layer screen sections for fine-screening applications where top-size particles are smaller than 0.375in (9.5mm) and moisture is less than 1%.

Drawing upon their extensive screening OEM experience, Haver & Boecker Niagara sat they are able to help operations determine the best product for their application and most effective solutions to their challenges.

The company’s PROcheck approach applies expertise in diagnostics, processing equipment, engineered screen media, original parts, rebuilds and upgrades, services, plants, and process engineering to inspect customers’ screening processes in order to recommend best practices for processing proficiency.
