A wedge wire trommel screen(rotary screen drum) is a cylindrical filtering device commonly used for separating solids from liquids or different sizes of solids. Our trommel screen can be made with stainless steel wedge wire as small as 0.5mm, allowing for efficient screening while minimizing clogging.
This stainless steel trommel screen ensures precise separation and long-term reliability. The screen is ideal for both industrial and environmental applications, such as wastewater treatment, mining operations, compost, and green waste, skip waste and municipal solid waste, sand and gravel, landfill recovery, coal mining, mineral extraction plants, fiberglass processing operations, and food washing factories.

How Does a Wedge Wire Trommel Screen Work?
The operation of a wedge wire trommel screen is simple yet effective. Materials are fed into the rotating drum, where the wedge wire panels separate particles by size. Smaller particles pass through the slots, while larger particles move along the drum’s length. This continuous rotation promotes efficient separation and prevents clogging, making the process highly reliable for high-volume applications.
Key Features of Wedge Wire Trommel Screens
▪ Durable Construction: Made from corrosion-resistant stainless steel, ensuring long service life even in harsh environments.
▪ Precision Filtration: Uniform slot sizes provide consistent and efficient separation.
▪ Self-Cleaning Design: The cylindrical motion naturally prevents clogging, reducing maintenance requirements.
▪ Customizable Options: Tailored designs to meet industry-specific needs, including various slot sizes and drum dimensions.
Cross-Industry Applications of Wedge Wire Trommel Screens
1. Wastewater Treatment
In municipal and industrial water treatment plants, these screens remove debris and solids from wastewater streams, ensuring cleaner water output.
2. Mining and Aggregates
Ideal for classifying materials such as sand, gravel, and ores, the robust design withstands the rigors of heavy-duty mining operations.
3. Food Processing
Used in the food and beverage industry for separating solids from liquids, such as in fruit pulp filtration or brewery operations.
4. Recycling
It is common in recycling facilities to sort materials such as plastics, metals, and organic waste for further processing.
5. Pulp and Paper Industry
Effectively separates fibers and debris during the paper-making process, enhancing productivity and product quality.
