Crushing Screening

Crushing screening is a process used in industries such as mining and construction. This process allows raw materials or materials to be reduced to certain sizes. Often large pieces of raw materials are broken into smaller pieces and made suitable for processing or transportation.

Crushing screening refers to the process of first crushing and then separating rocks, stones or other materials into specific sizes. Crushing ensures that the raw material is reduced to the desired size, while screening separates it from unwanted small pieces. This process is widely used in applications such as the production of construction materials, road construction, concrete production, etc.

Crushing and Screening

Various equipment used in the crushing and screening industry is designed for crushing, shredding and classifying materials.

The features of crushing and screening equipment are as follows:

  • Hammer Crushers: Used to crush large pieces of materials into small pieces. Rotary hammers perform the crushing process by impacting the material with hammers mounted on a rotating rotor.
  • Impact Crushers: They break materials by throwing them against rotors that rotate at high speed. The material is crushed by the blows of rods or hammers on the rotor.
  • Cone Crushers: Crushes material by compressing it into a conical vessel that rotates around an eccentric shaft. The material is fed slowly at low speed into the conical vessel and crushed through the crushing chamber.
  • Jaw Crushers: Jaw crushers crush the material by compression of a movable and fixed jaw plate placed between two jaws. The material is crushed and broken between the jaw plates.
  • Drum Screens: These are perforated panels mounted on rotating drums. The material is fed into the drum and crushed as it passes through the holes according to the desired size.
  • Vibrating Screens: It performs the process of screening the material with perforated panels on a vibrating platform. The vibration allows the material to move on the panels and classifies it according to the desired size.
Crushing Screening

Screening and crushing equipment is selected and used according to factors such as material hardness, density, moisture content and desired end product properties. They have many features that are important in terms of efficiency, reliability and operating costs, so they should be carefully considered when making the selection.

Crushing And Screening Plants

Crushing and screening plant are used in various industries and are used for crushing, shredding and classifying raw materials. These plants are used in sectors such as mining, construction, quarries and quarries and enable the processing of various materials. These materials can include various raw materials such as rocks, stones, gravel, sand, glass, iron ore and coal.

The installation of crushing & screening plants includes the following steps:

  • Planning and Design: Survey of the site, material procurement, equipment selection and other factors necessary for the efficient operation of the plant.
  • Site Preparation: Leveling and clearing the area where the plant will be built and carrying out the necessary infrastructure works. This step includes works such as leveling the ground and providing infrastructure requirements such as water and electricity.
  • Foundation Construction: Laying the foundations of the facility and constructing the structural components. In this step, platforms and structures are built where the crushing and screening equipment will be installed.
  • Equipment Installation: Assembling and placing the crushing and screening equipment. This step includes the installation of crushers, screens, conveyors and other equipment.
  • Electrical and Automation Systems: Installation of the plant’s electrical systems and integration of the automation system. This step ensures the automation of the crushing and screening processes and increases the efficiency of the plant.
  • Testing and Commissioning: Testing and commissioning of the plant to ensure that all components of the plant are working correctly. This step verifies that the plant is ready to be operational.
Crushing Screening

The installation of a crushing and screening plant is usually carried out by specialized engineering and construction companies and is done in accordance with local regulations. In addition, necessary measures are taken to minimize environmental impacts and ensure occupational safety.
