New Trommel Screeners for Sale

What is a trommel screener?

A trommel is a type of screening machine used to separate materials by size using a rotating cylindrical drum, known as a trommel, with perforated screens. As the drum rotates, smaller particles pass through the holes, while larger materials stay inside the drum, moving to the end for further processing or disposal. Trommel screeners are commonly used in aggregate processing, mining, and recycling operations to sort materials like soil, sand, gravel, and organic waste efficiently.

History of trommel screeners

Trommels began in industries such as mining and waste management, where the need to separate different-sized materials became critical. Early trommel screeners were basic in design, relying on manual operation or rudimentary mechanics. Over time, improvements in materials and automation technology allowed for larger, more durable trommel screeners capable of handling high volumes and tougher materials. Today, trommel screeners are widely used across various industries, including the aggregate sector, for their versatility and ability to process large quantities of materials efficiently.
