The main materials for vibrating screens include carbon steel, stainless steel, plastic and other materials to choose from. Some users usually ignore the importance of materials when choosing vibrating screen equipment, which may cause the vibrating screen to fail to achieve the ideal screening effect and service life. Today, let’s talk about several materials for vibrating screens and how to choose them.

Stainless steel vibrating screens are primarily constructed of all stainless steel or stainless steel + carbon steel (material contact parts are stainless steel). These are primarily chosen by users who require material-contacting equipment to prevent contamination caused by contact between materials and carbon steel. All-stainless steel vibrating screens are suitable for industries such as food and pharmaceuticals, offering easy cleaning and fully complying with production standards for these industries.

PP vibrating screens primarily consist of PP (polypropylene) + carbon steel (material contact parts are PP). Their primary feature is corrosion resistance, effectively addressing the potential for chemical reactions and high corrosion from contact between special materials and metal during screening. Material-contacting parts, including the screen, screen frame, middle frame, sealing cover, and screen cleaning device, are entirely non-metallic. PP vibrating screens are suitable for screening and filtering dry powders or slurries in specialized industries such as chemical, pharmaceutical, and military.

In addition to the common materials mentioned above, specialized high-strength composite materials such as carbon fiber and fiberglass are also used in the manufacture of vibrating screen equipment. These materials offer high strength and light weight, but also come at a higher cost, making them suitable for specialized applications. Different materials have different advantages and disadvantages. When selecting a material for vibrating screen equipment, you should consider factors such as the application scenario, strength requirements, corrosion resistance requirements, and cost. You should also consider the material's manufacturability, availability, and environmental friendliness.
