What should I look for when buying a screening machine?

Choosing the right screening machine is all about finding the right balance between your projects and your machinery. It is crucial that the screening machine and your excavator or wheel loader are compatible. A crane that is too small for a large screening machine will result in undercapacity, while a bucket width that is too large for a compact screen will make dosing difficult.

Therefore, pay close attention to the discharge height and the baking width. Your excavator should be able to reach the hopper easily, and the bucket width should ideally be slightly narrower than the screen deck. This will allow you to work most efficiently and prevent spillage.
