How to solve the problem of EPS material screening?
2025-04-10

EPS (Expanded Polystyrene) is a lightweight polymer. It is made of polystyrene resin with a foaming agent, which is softened by heating to produce gas to form a rigid closed-cell foam plastic. EPS has excellent and lasting thermal insulation, excellent water and moisture resistance, corrosion resistance, durability and flame retardancy, and is widely used due to its outstanding product performance. During the processing or recycling process of EPS materials, its physical properties make screening more difficult. Today, let's talk about how to solve the problem of EPS material screening.

EPS materials are lightweight and porous due to the presence of tiny bubbles inside. Although this feature gives it excellent performance in heat insulation, sound insulation and buffering, it brings many problems during processing or recycling. Particles are easy to adhere to each other and block the screen during screening, affecting the screening accuracy and screening rate. EPS materials are also fragile. When subjected to external forces, they are easy to split into small fragments. It is difficult to effectively separate them during the screening process, which increases the difficulty of screening. In addition, EPS materials are prone to static electricity in a dry environment, which causes mutual attraction between particles and complicates the screening process.


Due to these characteristics of EPS materials, the screening process faces multiple difficulties such as screen blockage, difficulty in screening fine powder, and electrostatic interference. As a high-efficiency fine screening equipment, Xinxiang Mirant Machinery's circular swing screen has the most effective simulation of the principle of manual screening movement, which is suitable for processing EPS materials, which have many screening problems. The circular swing screen can significantly increase the screening time of EPS and improve the screening efficiency. Its fine screening ability can ensure that EPS materials are accurately graded according to the set particle size, thereby achieving the effect of improving product quality. It can also reduce screen blockage and electrostatic interference, improve resource utilization and reduce production costs.
