Star screens are used in various applications to remove fine material, dust, and soil. In the field of C&D, the soil will be removed to be reused as cover material in landfills. For handling operations, peat, twigs, and roots will be removed from the topsoil.
Our high-capacity star screens, operating at a speed of 200 feet per minute, are versatile and custom-made to meet your specific application. With stars mounted on closely spaced parallel shafts, the material conveyed in the screen bounces during the rotation of the shafts. The tips of the stars separate the fine material from the rest. The fine material passes between the stars while the rest is conveyed to the end of the sieve.
Star screens differ from rotary screens, which rely on the passage of material through a mesh. The rotating stars create a bed of mobile stars, which allows for the fragmentation of wet and twisted materials, ensuring superior separation. The material is agitated enough to allow the separation of a larger quantity of fine material that will not be conveyed with the rest. Depending on your application, star screens can help eliminate the intrinsic binding of high-moisture content materials
JECC's heavy-duty rotary screens, also known as "trommels," are designed for heavy-duty work while having an extended lifespan and requiring minimal maintenance.
Rotary screens are offered in single or double action with a wide range of mesh available.
Mechanical screening is an efficient and cost-effective method for sorting various fractions within an aggregate. The constant rotation continuously agitates the material to keep it in contact with the mesh and allow it to slide quickly and easily through it. Ideal for recycling tires, C&D, electronic waste, glass, plastics, and much more.
Our team of professionals has the experience and practical knowledge of the available screening technologies. We can thus offer you a customized solution, based on the properties of the material to be screened and the desired final result.
