Introduction to DSM arc screen working principle, mine tailings recovery, water treatment applications and Innovet product advantages.

Arc screens, also known as DSM curve screens, are efficient screening equipment that utilize the combined action of centrifugal force and gravity for solid-liquid separation. Materials are fed tangentially along the curved screen surface, where liquids and fine particles discharge through screen slots under centrifugal force while coarse particles slide downward for separation.

1. Mine Tailings Recovery Applications

In mineral processing, tailings recovery is critical for improving resource utilization. Arc screens efficiently classify tailings slurry, recovering valuable fine minerals while reducing tailings storage requirements. Compared with traditional linear vibrating screens, arc screens offer significant advantages including no moving parts, simple maintenance, large processing capacity and small footprint.

2. Water Treatment Applications

In municipal sewage and industrial wastewater treatment, arc screens are widely used in preliminary treatment stages to efficiently remove suspended solids, fibers and hair, protecting downstream membrane and biological treatment systems. The equipment operates without power consumption, achieving solid-liquid separation solely through gravity flow with minimal operating costs.

3. Innovet Arc Screen Product Advantages
