DISC SCALPING SCREEN
The Acrowood Disc Scalper Screen eliminates material handling problems and downstream damage to equipment. Disc Scalping screens are high capacity shaft-based machines with spacers separating individual discs down the length of the shaft. The intent is to let the majority of chips pass quickly between discs and over the round surface of the spacers.
Disc Scalping Screen Features
•Robust and super heavy-duty I-beam construction
•Wide-flange beam sub-base with pillow block bearings located outboard from hopper walls and potential contamination
•Easy maintenance with segmented, removable hopper walls for excellent shaft access
•Spacer-disc shaft assemblies with heavy-duty discs and spacers. Options for different metallurgy and thicknesses
•Lubrication-free and trouble-free drive system with oversized, sintered bushing chain drive
•Dust containment a result of shafts sealed at hopper walls and optional screen covers
•Proven performance
Disc Scalpers
The Acrowood Disc Scalper is designed to remove gross oversize pieces which could cause material handling problems in or damage to downstream equipment.
•Scalper base of wide flange I-beam with 4” steel pipe for cross ties.
•Segmented hopper walls for simple shaft changes.
•Shaft assemblies with discs and spacers slipped over square tubing, held in place using a special compression system.
•Spherical roller pillow block bearings mounted outboard of the hopper walls, away from potential contamination.
•Standard discs are AR plate, 15” diameter and 3/8” thick
•Disc tooth profile and spacing are selected to optimize selectivity
