Screening Secret

Orbit Screens’ revolutionary Orbital Action technology sets us apart by delivering unmatched efficiency and versatility in material screening. Unlike traditional shaking or trommel methods, Orbital Action allows for seamless screening across a wide range of materials, simply by changing the screen opening. Whether you’re processing topsoil, compost, mulch, or rock, our innovative design ensures quick, natural particle separation, maximizing power and performance. Harnessing the principles of nature, Orbit Screens creates a smooth, continuous flow that delivers superior results, saving time and increasing productivity across every application.

Orbital Action is Orbit Screens’ greatest advantage and is the secret in creating value for our customers. Rather than shaking or tromelling material to be screened, Orbital Action as delivered by Orbit Screens provides the ability to screen a wide variety of materials merely by changing screen openings. Need topsoil? Here’s your screen. Need compost processed? Here’s your screen. Need mulch? Here’s your screen. Need rock? Here’s your screen. Need that cleaned up? Here’s your screen…

Orbit Screens uses Mother Nature’s principal of material flow to effect a quick, easy, and natural particle size separation. It has been said Mother Nature knows best, she maximizes Orbit Screens use of horse power, machine components, and raw materials in the best way available to the screening industry. Material rolling over its self causes the large particles and light/fluffy items to rise to the surface of the material mix. (As in a mountain stream or an avalanche.) This effect is the difference between our screens and any other screen on the market.

Orbit Screens utilizes a correctly shaped rotating screen tilted relative to gravity to provide for accurate sizing of materials, the larger and lighter material flows out of the screen dish onto the Overs Conveyor. Maximum efficiency is realized as the overs flow out, allowing the smaller material to pass through the screen and onto the Fines Conveyor.

Efficiency over box screens is achieved because the Orbit Sceens’ dish keeps rotating the same direction rather that reversing direction like the shaking of a box screen. Efficiency over a trommel is achieved because the material stays in the screen until it is processed and doesn’t need to be reprocessed.

Efficiency over both is achieved over both when the time comes to change a screen.
