Shakers and Screens Enhance Production and Ensure Standards Compliance
In the asphalt production industry, maintaining rigorous quality control is crucial. A high-quality screen shaker not only enhances the overall production process but also ensures the final product meets stringent standards. Partnering with Unified Screening & Crushing, CWMF is committed to providing top-notch screening solutions that improve quality control, minimize maintenance, and reduce downtime expenses.
The Importance of Quality Control in Asphalt Production
Quality control in asphalt production involves several critical steps to ensure the final product’s durability and performance. Using superior screening solutions in the screen shaker is fundamental to this process. Effective screening helps to:
- Ensure Consistency: Accurate sizing of materials leads to a consistent asphalt mix, which is vital for road durability.
- Prevent Contamination: Proper screening prevents oversized material or unwanted debris from entering the mix, which can compromise the quality and performance of the asphalt.
- Reduce Maintenance: A high-quality screen shaker is more durable, requiring less frequent replacement and reducing maintenance downtime.
- Increase Efficiency: Efficient screening processes lead to higher production rates, optimizing the use of resources and time.
The CWMF Tremor Screen Shaker
At CWMF, we pride ourselves on innovative solutions that enhance production efficiency. The Tremor Shaker™ Scalping Screen is a prime example of this commitment. Serving as a critical component of the cold feed and RAP systems, this screen shaker prevents oversized material from entering the drum mixer, ensuring an optimal asphalt mix. Key features include:
- Innovative Design: Simplified for ease of adjustment, the Tremor Shaker fits various applications and is available in sizes ranging from 3’x6′ to 5’x12′ in single or double deck configurations.
- Durability: Featuring an eccentric flywheel design, C-style screen shaker springs, and a pivoting motor base, it controls shaker deck motion and maintains constant belt tension, reducing the need for adjustments. Our design uses Huck Rivets to minimize welds, preventing cracks over time.
- Customization: Options include side or end chutes, support stands, reject chutes, magnetic separators, and deck selectors.
SuperClean Screens: A Game Changer for the Screen Shaker
One of the reasons our Tremor Shaker is so effective is the screen we choose to use. Unified’s SuperClean screens featuring Tufflex™ wire offer several advantages that directly contribute to improved quality control and operational efficiency through the screen shaker:
- High Production Rates: With a high percentage of open area and cleaning action, SuperClean screens ensure higher production rates.
- Durability and Strength: The unique manufacturing process of the Tufflex wire provides higher tensile strength and greater ductility, reducing the risk of breakage.
- Cost Efficiency: Lower per-ton screening costs contribute to overall operational savings.
- Versatility: Suitable for both recycled asphalt and concrete, SuperClean screens are particularly valuable for the screen shaker component of mixed product processing.
Why Screen Shaker Quality Matters
Investing in quality screening solutions like Tufflex screens and the Tremor Shaker Scalping Screen shaker is essential for:
- Improved Quality Control: Ensuring the final product meets high standards of durability and performance.
- Minimized Maintenance: Reducing the frequency and cost of maintenance through durable and efficient screen shaker solutions.
