In the world of waste management, recycling, and material sorting, trommel screens play an essential role in efficiently separating materials of different sizes. Duromech®, a leading manufacturer of waste recycling and material handling solutions, offers top-quality trommel screens that cater to a wide variety of industries. Here, we provide a detailed overview of what trommel screens are, how they work, and their benefits in modern applications.

What is a Trommel Screen?

A trommel screen (also known as a rotary screen) is a mechanical screening device used to separate materials based on size. It consists of a cylindrical drum that rotates on an inclined frame. As the drum rotates, materials fed into the trommel are screened through perforated holes, with smaller particles falling through while larger materials continue to move through the drum to the discharge end.

How Do Trommel Screens Work?

  1. Material Feeding: Bulk materials are fed into the rotating drum, typically via a hopper or conveyor.
  2. Screening Process: As the drum rotates, materials are lifted and tumbled, causing finer particles to fall through the screen holes while larger particles move toward the exit.
  3. Separation: Different sections of the drum can have different hole sizes, allowing for multiple grades of material separation in a single pass.
  4. Discharge: Separated materials are discharged at different points for collection or further processing.
