Masterbatch, a new type of polymer material colouring agent, is widely used in plastics, rubber, chemical fibre and many other fields. In its production, the uniformity and purity of the product directly affects the quality of the plastic direct comment. The linear vibrating screen machine can quickly and accurately remove and classify the masterbatch particles, and improve the quality and production efficiency of the masterbatch. Here we learn about the application and advantages of linear vibrating screen in the masterbatch industry and the common models and specifications of linear vibrating screen.
What is linear vibrating screen?
Linear vibrating screen machine is a kind of screening equipment that uses vibrating motor to generate excitation force to make materials do linear motion on the screen surface. It can be equipped with single or multi-layer screen mesh to achieve the functions of classification, debris removal, dust removal, detection, washing, dewatering, cleaning raw materials, and separation of iron in materials.

Working Principle
Linear Vibrating Screen rotates in reverse synchronously through two vibrating motors, generating linear vibration force, which makes the materials make jumping and linear forward movement on the vibrating screen surface. Qualified particles pass through the screen mesh, and unqualified materials are separated, so as to achieve accurate screening.

Linear vibrating screen in the masterbatch industry application and role
Raw material screening and removal of impurities
Linear vibrating screens are commonly used in the pre-treatment stage of raw materials to remove lumps, foreign materials and large particles (such as metal chips, fibres, etc.) in materials such as resins, pigments and additives. By adjusting the mesh size (usually 80-300 mesh), the purity of the raw material can be improved, reducing problems in the later stages of remixing and extrusion. For example, pigments can be screened to reduce colour differences, resins can be screened to prevent uneven melting, etc. thus improving the quality and efficiency of the masterbatch.
Finished product grading and screening
After the finished masterbatch particles may have differences in particle size, linear vibrating screen through multi-layer screen (such as 20 mesh, 40 mesh, 60 mesh combination) for accurate grading, in line with the customer-specified range of particles to meet the look at the particle size requirements of different customers. In this link, the linear sieving machine enhances the uniformity of the products of colour masterbatches and meets the downstream processing requirements.
Remove unqualified particles
In the production process, over-sized or under-sized particles may be generated due to extrusion temperature, cutting process and other factors. The linear vibrating screen can efficiently screen out these rejects. Unqualified particles can be recycled and re-pelletised, reducing the waste of raw materials and improving the yield.
Enhance production efficiency and automation
Linear vibrating screen has the characteristics of high processing capacity and low energy consumption, which is suitable for large-scale continuous production. Its fully enclosed structure reduces dust spillage and meets the requirements of environmental protection; automated screening reduces manual intervention and lowers production costs. The modular design supports rapid screen replacement (e.g. 40 mesh to 80 mesh), adapting to the needs of different formulations.
Advantages of linear vibrating screen
1. compact and durable design, easy to operate.
2. easy to clean and change the screen.
3. automatically discharging impurities and coarse material, realising automatic operation.
4. all stainless steel structure, ensure the purity of materials.
5. Fewer faults, easy maintenance.
6. light weight, the base is equipped with casters, easy to move and place.
7. In addition to standard configuration, customised mesh size is also available.
