A myriad of industries such as pharmaceuticals, powders, food (flour, corn meal, salt, chocolate, etc.), plastics, liquid solids, and ceramics are typically very fine material applications, which need a precise separation that can be achieved on round vibratory separator machines.

Midwestern Industries, Inc. is a one-source supplier for a wide variety of screens and parts for round vibratory separators – for most makes and models. Manufactured in the United States, these competitively priced high-quality items are designed to keep production levels high and downtime at a minimum.

Custom woven screen meshes are manufactured in-house, with a full line of stainless steel (304,316, and type 430 magnetic) and synthetic inventory. 18” to 72” in diameter and can fit nearly every make and model of separator with various mounting methods – including strict food grade standards.

ROUND SCREEN LINE-UP:

A wide range of custom screens for round vibratory separators include:

Perforated screens: Made with an in-house, 20-foot laser bed for custom screening applications, the perforated line is available in a wide range of made-to-order sizes and are available with round, slotted, or square openings.
Bulls-eye screens: Adhesive beads are applied in a bulls-eye pattern between the sizing screen and the backup mesh to reduce friction–while extending the life and performance of the screen.
Sandwich screens: Plastic sliders are sandwiched between a sizing screen and the carrier mesh – dislodging near size particles and allowing material to flow more efficiently.
Wagon wheel screens: Made to fit most makes and models of separators, dense material on fine mesh screens and larger diameter screens can benefit from the added support provided by the unique wagon wheel design.
Ultrasonic screens: Designed for a growing niche of uniquely fine material applications (powders, minerals, etc.), sound wave frequencies move across the round screen wire to help overcome plugging to help increase throughput and efficiency. Midwestern supplies complete Ultrasonic systems for new equipment or your existing equipment for most makes and models of round separators.
Custom woven screens: As a manufacturer, not a reseller, Midwestern provides customized woven screen solutions. These unconventional screens are ideal for unique applications. Clear openings and custom weaves are available that are not shown in Midwestern’s standard mesh chart. Midwestern sales professionals can be contacted for availability and options.

MIDWESTERN ROUND SCREEN NEW / CONCLUSION:

Newly developed within the past year, Midwestern has also incorporated a new process for full epoxy mounting. This new process allows the epoxy to cure quickly which enables Midwestern to ship screens the same day. The advanced epoxy allows users to switch from different mounts for longer life. Each screen is individually boxed with an FDA approved gasket installed – at no extra charge.
Midwestern screens also come with a fully disposable carbon or stainless steel disposable metal ring. Thin- flanged hollow rings are also available. All of the rings that Midwestern supplies are fully recyclable.
According to Tim Carey, Midwestern’s VP of Business Development, “These across-the-board round screen advancements help our customers avoid costly and debilitating downtime. This is of paramount importance, as we also focus on quick turnaround to accommodate customers’ screening application needs with quality products, two-to-three-day lead times, and on-time deliveries.”
