HenstarScreen Products in Mining & Metallurgy
HenstarScreen specializes in high-performance screening and wear-resistant solutions for the mining and metallurgy industries. Our polyurethane (PU), rubber, and metal screen meshes, along with wear plates and conveyor components, are designed to enhance efficiency, durability, and cost-effectiveness in harsh operating conditions.
Key Products & Their Applications in Mining & Metallurgy1. Polyurethane (PU) Screen Panels & Meshes
Applications:
Fine Particle Separation (0.1-5mm): Gold, copper, iron ore, and coal tailings dewatering.
High-Abrasion Environments: Screening of crushed ores and minerals.
Wet Screening: Slurry and mud separation in mineral processing.
Why PU is Ideal for Mining & Metallurgy:
✔ Superior Wear Resistance – 3-5x longer lifespan than steel mesh in abrasive conditions.
✔ Anti-Clogging Design – Openings remain clear even with sticky or wet materials.
✔ Corrosion Resistance – Withstands acidic/alkaline slurries in leaching processes.
✔ Noise & Vibration Damping – Reduces operational noise compared to metal screens.
2. Rubber Screen Panels & Meshes
Applications:
Coarse Screening (5-50mm): Primary screening of iron ore, bauxite, and coal.
Heavy-Duty Impact Zones: Feed chutes and scalping screens.
Wet & Sticky Materials: Coal washing and aggregate classification.
Why Rubber is Preferred:
✔ High Impact Absorption – Minimizes damage from large, sharp rocks.
✔ Flexibility & Elasticity – Reduces blinding (material sticking to screens).
✔ Cost-Effective for Bulk Materials – Lower initial cost than PU, suitable for large-scale operations.
3. Metal (Steel/Stainless Steel) Screen Meshes
Applications:
Primary Screening (50-150mm): Scalping oversized rocks before crushing.
High-Temperature Screening: Sintered ore, hot pellets, and calcined materials.
Heavy-Duty Trommel Screens: Rotary screening in coal and iron ore processing.
Why Metal Screens Are Essential:
✔ Extreme Durability – Handles large, sharp-edged rocks without tearing.
✔ Heat Resistance – Suitable for sintering and pelletizing processes (up to 400°C).
✔ High Tensile Strength – Supports heavy loads in primary crushing stages.
4. Polyurethane & Rubber Wear Plates
Applications:
Feed Hoppers & Chutes – Protects against abrasive ore impact.
Vibrating Screen Decks – Extends the lifespan of screen frames.
Crusher Liners – Reduces wear in jaw/cone crushers.
Why Wear Plates Are Critical:
✔ Reduces Downtime – Minimizes maintenance frequency in high-wear zones.
✔ Customizable Thickness – Adapts to different impact levels (10-50mm available).
✔ Easy Replacement – Modular design for quick installation.
5. Conveyor System Components (Belts, Rollers, Scrapers)
Applications:
Ore Transport: Belt conveyors for moving crushed minerals.
Dewatering & Sorting: Rollers and scrapers in coal/iron ore processing plants.
Why Henstar’s Conveyor Parts Are Used:
✔ Abrasion-Resistant Belting – Long-lasting under heavy ore loads.
✔ Low-Friction Rollers – Energy-efficient material handling.
✔ Self-Cleaning Scrapers – Prevents material buildup on belts.
Conclusion
