Reciprocating screens are normally inclined at an angle of 5° with the horizontal and employ gyratory motion at feed end & reciprocating motion at the discharge end. They are not suitable for the screening of the ___________________?
Correct answer: C. Heavy tonnages of rocks or gravel
- A. Light metal powder down upto 4 mesh size
- B. Dry chemicals
- C. Heavy tonnages of rocks or gravel
- D. Powdered food & granular materials
Explanation
Reciprocating screens are useful for light powders and granular materials but are not designed for the high-throughput handling of heavy rocks or gravel. Heavy-duty vibrating or grizzly screens are more suitable for such tonnages.
