The material to be screened is fed into the plant through a vibrating feeder or hopper. This ensures an even and controlled flow of material onto the screening decks.

The material moves across the screening decks, which are equipped with mesh screens or perforated plates. As the material travels over the screens, smaller particles pass through the mesh openings, while larger particles remain on the surface.

The screened material is then conveyed to different discharge points based on size. Fine particles may be collected separately from coarse particles, and each size fraction is typically stockpiled or transported for further use or processing.

In recycling applications, the plant efficiently sorts materials like concrete and asphalt, allowing for the reuse of valuable resources and reducing waste.
