Tumbler Screening Machine for Glass Frits and Glass Graules

Tumbler screening machine for glass frits and glass granules generally refers to a drum-type screening equipment used to screen and classify glass frit (a block formed by cooling glass raw materials after high-temperature melting) or glass granules. This equipment is widely used in glass manufacturing, recycling or processing industries, and can classify particles according to their size.

How does the tumbler screening machine for glass frits and glass granules work

①Drum rotation: the material enters the rotating drum from the feed port, and the inner wall of the drum is equipped with a screen.

②Screening process: the material rotates with the drum, and particles smaller than the screen hole pass through the screen, while those larger than the screen hole continue to move forward and are finally discharged from the discharge port.

Main structure of tumbler screening machine for glass frits and glass granules

Drum: core component, usually made of wear-resistant material, with screens of different apertures inside.

Drive device: motor and reducer drive the drum to rotate.

Bracket: supports the drum and drive device.

Feed port and discharge port: used for material entry and discharge respectively.

What are the advantages of tumbler screening machine for glass frits and glass granules?

1. Solve the problem of particle breakage or quality damage: The rotation of the drum or the collision of particles may cause the glass particles to break further, affecting subsequent use. Reduce the drum speed to reduce the impact force between particles. Optimize the feeding method to avoid putting too much material at one time.

2. Deal with the problem of mismatch between processing volume and efficiency: When the material processing volume is too large, the drum may be overloaded, resulting in incomplete screening or equipment failure. Select a drum with a suitable diameter and length according to actual needs to increase the screening area.

3. Processing particles that are too large or too small: The size of glass frit and glass particles does not meet the requirements, which will affect the product quality. This can be solved by adjusting the vibration frequency and amplitude, replacing the appropriate screen or performing multiple screening.

4. Solve the problem of screening materials with complex shapes: Glass frits are irregular in shape and are easily stuck in the screen holes or the gap between the guide plates. Sheet glass is difficult to classify by particle size. Add a spiral guide plate in the drum to force the material to roll and change direction.

Application of tumbler screening machine for glass frits and glass granules

1. Waste glass recycling and processing line: mixed waste glass needs to separate impurities and graded recycling. Tumbler screening machine for glass frits and glass granules can separate super large frit (>10cm) and non-glass impurities such as metal and ceramics.

2. Preparation of raw materials for glass products: glass frit needs to be crushed and screened into a specific particle size for use in the furnace. Tumbler screening machine for glass frits and glass granules separates incompletely crushed frit (>5cm) and qualified particles (<3cm) through multiple layers of screens.

3. Photovoltaic glass manufacturing: Photovoltaic glass requires high-purity and uniformly sized glass particles as substrate raw materials. The drum screening machine can be combined with ultrasonic vibration to remove impurities and screen ultrafine glass powder (<0.1mm).

4. Construction glass sand production: waste glass is processed into construction sand (instead of natural river sand). Tumbler screening machine for glass frits and glass granules uses a double-layer drum screen (20 mesh + 40 mesh) to separate 20-40 mesh (0.4-0.8mm) glass sand.
