AFT Screen Basket
Screening System Energy Saving by correct product selection
Many Screening systems are operating with furnish and flow rates that differ from those in the original design. This often goes unnoticed as the change can happen slowly over time. It is periodically necessary to re-evaluate the screening system performance, particularly in these times of higher energy cost. This service can be delivered by Salvtech and AFT in the UK using AFT’s SimAudit™service and software. AFT offers the broadest range of screen basket profiles and bar widths on the market and therefore is able to design the exact basket for a mills specific screening application. This means no compromise is require on Cost v Quality.
One such example comes from a Scandanavia brown stock pulp producer, who adopted AFT’s latest screening components after an audit. The upgraded screening components made it possible to cut energy consumption by 50%, and double the life of cylinders and rotors.
Enhanced performance wear component design and function results from AFT's understanding of screening fundamentals, screening processes and limitations of screen capability. Saving energy, saving valuable fibers or maximizing fiber yield is a result of understanding process conditions, the function of key processes and equipment parameters together with selection of right equipment.
