Description
Working Principle of Trommel Screen
The trommel screen working principle is based on rotary motion and particle separation:
- Waste is fed into the inclined rotating drum.
- As the drum turns, material is lifted, dropped, and rolled forward.
- Small fractions pass through the perforated holes.
- Larger items continue along the drum until they exit at the discharge point.
- This continuous rolling and loosening action delivers efficient separation, even with moist, sticky, or mixed waste streams.
