Orbital screen for precise feedstock sizing

Achieve precise particle sizing and separation with this compact orbital screen, designed for seamless integration into feedstock processing lines to enhance sorting accuracy and operational efficiency.

Screens and Separates Biomass Feedstocks Efficiently

The Orbital Screen System Model 2448-3 from Forest Concepts is designed to transform biomass processing with its precision screening capabilities. Utilizing in-plane orbital motion, it ensures accurate particle size separation, minimizing spearing and optimizing throughput. This system is ideal for applications involving biofuel, biomass, and organic materials, producing end products like wood chips and bio-oil feedstocks. With a processing capacity of up to 1.5 green tons per hour, it integrates seamlessly into existing feedstock processing lines, supported by a ½ hp motor and variable frequency drive for adjustable rotation. The system’s compact footprint and quiet operation make it suitable for both pilot and small-scale continuous operations. Quick interchange screen elements allow for easy adaptation to various processing needs, and voltage options (110VAC 1ph standard, 220VAC 1ph, and 460VAC 3ph available) enhance its integration into diverse operational environments.

Benefits
