The Wood Chip Screener is a kind of mechanical equipment specially designed for screening and grading wood chips. It can separate wood chips into different grades according to their particle sizes to meet the specific requirements of different industries and production processes for the particle sizes of wood chips.

Main features of Wood Chip Screener
- High screening precision: It can accurately grade wood chips according to their particle sizes according to different needs, ensuring that the particle sizes of the screened wood chips are uniform and meeting the usage requirements of different users.
- Strong processing capacity: It has a large feeding port and a reasonable internal structure design, and can continuously screen a large amount of wood chips, with high production efficiency.
- Simple structure: The overall structure is relatively simple and is composed of fewer components. This not only makes the maintenance of the equipment more convenient and reduces the maintenance cost, but also makes it easy to install and operate, reducing the time and workload of installation and debugging.
- Good stability: By using high-quality materials and advanced manufacturing processes, all components of the equipment have high strength and wear resistance. It can maintain stable performance during long-term operation, reduce the probability of failures, and increase the service life of the equipment.
Working principle of Wood Chip Screener
- The Wood Chip Screener usually makes the wood chips move on the sieve surface by means of vibration, rotation or air flow, etc. When the wood chips pass through the screens with different pore sizes, the wood chip particles smaller than the pore size of the screen will pass through the screen and fall down, while the wood chips larger than the pore size of the screen will be left on the screen, thus achieving the purpose of screening and grading the wood chips according to their particle sizes. For example, the vibrating Wood Chip Screener drives the eccentric block to generate vibration through the motor, making the wood chips vibrate at a high frequency on the sieve surface, and prompting the wood chip particles to continuously contact the screen and be screened under the action of vibration.
Structure of Wood Chip Screener Oscillating Screen
- Feeding device: It mainly includes components such as the feeding hopper and the feeding conveyor belt. Its function is to uniformly and stably feed the wood chips to be screened into the working area of the screening machine, ensuring the continuity and stability of the screening process.
- Screening device: It is the core part of the screening machine and is usually composed of multiple layers of screens with different pore sizes. These screens are arranged in order from top to bottom according to the pore size, and the pore size gradually decreases. The screens are generally made of stainless steel or other wear-resistant materials to ensure that they are not easily damaged during long-term use and to ensure the screening precision at the same time.
- Driving device: It provides power for the operation of the screening machine. Common driving methods include motor drive and hydraulic drive, etc. The motor drive drives transmission components such as the pulley or gear through the motor to make the screening device generate vibration or rotational movement; the hydraulic drive uses the pressure oil provided by the hydraulic system to drive the hydraulic cylinder or hydraulic motor to realize the movement of the screening device, which has the advantages of stable transmission and large torque.
- Discharging device: It includes discharging ports of different levels and the discharging conveyor belt, which are used to separately convey the screened wood chips of different particle sizes to the designated positions for subsequent processing or treatment.
Application fields of Wood Chip Screener
- Wood processing industry: In the processes of wood board production, furniture manufacturing, etc., wood chips of different particle sizes are needed as raw materials. The Wood Chip Screener can grade the wood chips as required and they can be used for manufacturing wood chip boards, fiberboards, etc.
- Paper-making industry: Wood chips are one of the important raw materials for paper-making. Screening the wood chips to obtain suitable particle sizes through the screening machine helps to improve the quality of paper and the production efficiency.
- Biomass energy field: As a biomass fuel, wood chips need to be screened for particle sizes to ensure the sufficiency and stability of combustion and improve the energy conversion efficiency.
- Horticulture industry: The screened wood chips can be used for horticultural cultivation, such as as a cultivation substrate for flowers and seedlings. Wood chips of different particle sizes can meet the growth requirements of different plants.
