Ultrasonic technology | Ultrasonic screening

What is ultrasonic screening?

An ultrasonic screening system has three main components: a generator, a converter and a matched screen resonator with a frame.

The generator and converter work together to create high-frequency vibrations. They direct these vibrations into the resonator, which attaches to the screen frame.

These vibrations, manifested as high-frequency ultrasound waves, effectively prevent clogging, optimise material throughput and reduce process time.

Primarily used for classification, protective screening, dedusting, and conventional analysis screening in laboratories, this type of material handling equipment offers efficiency and accuracy.

Suitable for particles sized between 50 and 200 microns, our ultrasonic screening solutions excel in various industries. This includes, for example, the pharmaceutical industry, ensuring optimal performance and compliance with stringent standards.

Ultrasonics for de-blinding screens

Gough Engineering's ultrasonic screening solutions are crucial for solving screen blinding issues, particularly when dealing with fine powders. By using high-frequency vibrations, ultrasonic technology effectively prevents particles from adhering to the screen mesh, ensuring continuous and accurate screening operations.

Precision in particle sizing

In quality control processes, precision in particle sizing is essential. Ultrasonic screening not only stops blinding but also accurately sorts particle sizes, especially those in the fine powder category. This level of accuracy is essential for ensuring consistency in product quality and meeting stringent industry standards.

Quality assurance

With ultrasonics, quality control becomes more than just a process— it becomes a guarantee. By reliably de-blinding screens, ultrasonic technology ensures consistent operation. By accurately classifying particle sizes, it enhances quality assurance, providing confidence in the integrity and purity of the final product

Key features and advantages

Promotes high throughputs: By eliminating screen blinding, our systems ensure a consistent rate of throughput, improving efficiency in material handling operations.
Versatility: Successfully applied to both circular and linear sieving and screening systems, our technology offers flexibility to accommodate diverse application needs.
Reduced downtime: Automatic mesh clearing minimises the need for manual cleaning and screen removal, leading to reduced production downtime and enhanced operational efficiency.
Extended mesh life: By eliminating the need for mechanical screening systems, our ultrasonic technology mitigates the risk of physical damage and product contamination, ensuring prolonged mesh lifespan.
