How to Improve 30% Screening Efficiency of HUATAO Polyurethane FlipFlop screen panel?

Solving Wet & Sticky Material Screening: HUATAO Polyurethane Flip-Flop Screen Boosts Efficiency by 30% 1

The screening of wet and viscous materials is a common challenge faced by industries such as coal, metallurgy, and building materials worldwide. According to statistics, 35% of coal screening projects experience screen clogging due to high material moisture content, leading to three fatal problems: fine particle adhesion, clogged screen holes, and low efficiency. Traditional metal mesh screens, due to their high surface energy and rigid structure, are prone to adsorb fine particles (especially materials with a moisture content greater than 8%) and exacerbate blockage during vibration, resulting in a screening efficiency decrease of over 30%. At the same time, frequent shutdowns and cleaning increase maintenance costs. In addition, blockages force equipment to increase operational intensity, resulting in a 50% surge in energy consumption and a decrease in production capacity, forming a vicious cycle.

HUATAO GROUP's polyurethane flip flop screne panel solves industry pain points through dual innovation in materials and structure:

1. Superhydrophobic elastomer material

Using low surface energy polyurethane (surface energy<30mN/m), with a water contact angle of 110 °, reducing fine particle adhesion from the source;

2. Dynamic relaxation screening

The flexible screen panel undergoes high-frequency micro deformation (amplitude 3-5.5mm) during vibration, which prevents the material from staying in the sieve holes and reduces the blockage rate by 90%;

3. Energy saving and efficiency enhancing design

The elastic modulus can be adjusted (0.1-1GPa) to adapt to different material characteristics, reducing energy consumption by 20-40% under the same production capacity.

This technology has been successfully applied to multiple high humidity coal mines and clay screening projects worldwide, with an average screening efficiency increased to over 95% and maintenance cycles extended by 3-5 times, becoming a benchmark solution for screening wet and viscous materials.
