vibrate test sieve for bulk material

Tuesday January-06 2026  17:56:08

vibrate test sieve for bulk material is a device used for screening or particle size analysis of granular, powdery, and other bulk materials. It uses vibration to force the material through sieves of different aperture sizes, thereby classifying or detecting particle size distribution, enabling rapid and accurate assessment of the particle size characteristics of raw materials or finished products. Sieve aperture diameters include 0.025mm, 0.05mm, 0.075mm, 0.1mm, 0.125mm, 0.25mm, 0.5mm, 1mm, 2mm, 3mm, and 5mm. Common sieve sizes are Ø200mm or Ø300mm, and the materials are generally stainless steel, carbon steel, or copper mesh, conforming to international standards such as ISO 3310-1 and ASTM E11, ensuring the repeatability and reliability of screening results.

How does a vibrate test sieve for bulk material work?

The vibrate test sieve for bulk material uses a vibrating motor to generate high-frequency, low-amplitude three-dimensional motion, driving the sieve frame to screen the bulk material.

For dry mineral particles or flour, vibration rapidly disperses and tumbles them on the screen surface, allowing fine particles to pass through quickly with minimal dust and clear separation. For wet clay or filter cake, the material tends to clump together, requiring a powerful impact mechanism whose vertical hammering breaks up the clumps, forcing fine particles through the screen openings. For lightweight, loose materials, such as sawdust or plastic granules, which tend to float and cause stagnation during screening, the vibration frequency can be adjusted to reduce material fluidization, or an airflow-assisted device can be used to disperse the material layer and ensure separation.

Benefits of Vibrate Test Sieve for Bulk Material

The vibrate test sieve for bulk material can quickly and accurately determine the particle size distribution of bulk materials, helping production and research personnel understand material characteristics. Simply place the bulk material on the sieve, set the vibration time and amplitude, turn on the power, and the vibrating test sieve will automatically screen, reducing errors from manual screening and providing both labor-saving and standardized results. It also prevents material agglomeration or blockage during screening, improving screening accuracy. Vibrating test sieves can stack 1-8 layers of sieves with different aperture sizes, obtaining distribution data for multiple particle size ranges in a single run. Compared to violent crushing or high-speed mixing, vibrating test sieves cause less damage to brittle bulk materials, maintaining particle integrity.

Vibrate test sieve for bulk material can screen a variety of bulk materials, including cement, lime, pigments, plastic granules, coal, sand and gravel, ceramic raw materials, fillers, seeds, sugar, raw pharmaceutical materials, pharmaceutical intermediates, catalysts, pigments, mortar, aggregates, gypsum powder, concrete additives, soil, sediments, waste particles, and recycled plastics.

Packaging and transportation of vibrate test sieve for bulk material

Dahan Machinery can pack vibrate test sieve for bulk material in layers according to size and accessories. Internally, foam or pearl cotton is used for shock absorption, and externally, reinforced wooden crates are used to ensure moisture and impact protection. The outer packaging is clearly marked with the equipment model, weight, anti-tipping markings, and manufacturer's contact information for easy verification and operation. Equipment can be transported by land or sea. Larger equipment is reinforced with frame crates. Installation instructions and a parts list are provided, and the logistics status is tracked throughout the process.

The price of a vibrate test sieve for bulk material ranges from approximately $300 to $7000. For example, a single-layer vibrating test sieve with a sieve frame diameter of 100mm-200mm costs approximately $300-$1000. Equipment with a sieve frame diameter of 200mm or 300mm, which can be stacked 3-7 layers, costs approximately $1200-$4000.
