Solving Sticky Material Screen Clogging in Malaysia

The Problem: A Malaysia-based processing plant faced severe production challenges. When handling moist, adhesive materials, their vibrating screen meshes blinded within minutes. Workers had to stop operations repeatedly for manual cleaning, leading to frequent downtime and extremely low screening efficiency. “Our workers were constantly tapping and cleaning the mesh, but output kept dropping,” the plant manager explained.

Root Causes Identified:

Our team diagnosed the core issues:

• Material Adhesion: The moisture and fineness of the material caused strong adhesion to the mesh wires.
• Ineffective Cleaning: Traditional ball trays were insufficient to dislodge the sticky particles.
• Wrong Vibration Dynamics: The machine’s conventional vibration primarily moved the material horizontally but failed to break the vertical adhesive force.

Our Customized Solution:

We implemented a targeted upgrade focused on overcoming adhesion at the mesh level:

• Core Technology – Ultrasound Deblinding System: We retrofitted the screen with a high-frequency ultrasonic vibration system. This system transmits over 30,000 Hz of low-amplitude vibrations directly to the screen mesh, creating micro-vibrations that instantly break the surface tension and adhesive force of the sticky particles.
• Enhanced Cleaning Mechanism: Integrated a multi-layer cleaning system (elastic balls + rubber rings) to provide continuous mesh cleaning without stopping.
• Quick-Change Frame: Designed a rapid-release screen frame to reduce maintenance time by 60%.

The Results:

After implementation, the client reported:

• Near-Zero Clogging: Mesh blinding incidents were reduced by over 95%, enabling continuous 8-hour operation.
• Productivity Surge: Screening throughput increased by 40%, meeting and exceeding production targets.
• Lower Operational Cost: Dramatic reduction in manual cleaning labor and downtime saved significant costs monthly.
