A new composite vibrating mode is presented in this paper. Modeling and dynamic analysis are studied according to two-degree-of-freedom systems theory. The effects of vibration parameters, including swing angle, swing frequency, vibrating direction angle, and translation frequency, on the screening efficiency were researched by means of experiment research over a new laboratory-scale composite vibrating screen which is designed based on the new composite vibrating mode. The results are analysed in terms of curves and fitting equations. Compared to the translation mode and swing mode, the screening performance of the new composite vibrating mode, both in screening efficiency and in processing capacity, is significantly improved.

Purpose As for vibrating screen, the separation of granular materials is a very complicated process, particularly the screening with a swing trace. To study the characteristics of stratification and penetration in the swing vibrating screen, a three-dimensional numerical model was developed to simulate the screening process. Design/methodology/approach The discrete element method (DEM) was used to perform the numerical simulation, and the kinetic model of the swing screening was established. The regions of stratification and penetration were defined, and the mathematical functions relating fine particle ratio of stratification and penetration to time were presented using the least squares method. Findings The results show that the low value of frequency (5 and 10 Hz) has a limited effect on the stratification, while the obvious effect can be found at high frequency. A low frequencies or small swing angles may enhance the particle penetration. By studying the vibration parameters affecting the stratification and penetration rate, it is found that the frequency has more influence than the swing angle. Originality/value The higher screening efficiency and processing capacity can be further obtained for the swing vibrating screen by comparing with the linear vibrating screen. These results reveal the fundamental characteristics of particle motion in the swing screening, which will provide reliable guidance for studying the design optimization of vibrating screen.

With the increasing requirements for energy conservation and environmental protection, multi-layer vibrating screens have become hot issues. Compared with single-layer vibrating screens, multi-layer vibrating screens has much better performance in terms of processing effect, treatment capacity, and environmental protection. The research on the physical parameters of the multi-layer vibrating screen is of great significance to the actual production. However, analysis and simulation studies of multi-layer vibrating screens are limited. In this paper, the screening process of wet particles on a multi-layer vibrating screen was simulated by using the discrete element method. The characteristics and application scope of the two vibration modes were analyzed. The particle penetration rate, the number of collisions, and the distribution of the particles under 23 combinations of structures and vibration parameters were investigated. The influence of different parameters on screening performance was analyzed. Several optimal combinations of frequency, amplitude and screen inclination angle under different working conditions were obtained. The screening efficiency of the balanced elliptic motion is higher than that of the linear motion. The best combination of the three parameters is 4 mm amplitude, 20 Hz frequency, and 3° inclination angle. The efficiency is higher when the particles follow a distribution of arithmetic on the screen. This study provides a reference for the efficient operation and optimal design of large multi-layer screening equipment.

Deep dry screening is the key unit in mineral processing. A vibrating flip-flow screen (VFFS) can provide effective solutions for screening fine-grained minerals, and it has been extensively used in many industrial fields. An accurate dynamic model of VFFS considering the influence of materials is significant for its dynamic analysis and screening process research, but it has rarely been studied in detail. In this paper, an improved dynamic model of VFFS is proposed and its dynamic equations are solved to find the reasonable operating condition, and experiments are carried out to verify the reasonability of the proposed model under no-load and loading materials conditions. Furthermore, the method of multistage sampling and multilayer screening is also applied to evaluate the screening performance of iron ore at 3 mm cut size on VFFS. Results show that when the mass of materials, relative amplitude, and operating frequency have values of 107 kg, about 6 mm and 80.79 rad/s, respectively, the screening efficiency gradually increases with an increase of screening length, reaching 89.05%; however, it does not change much when the screening length exceeds 1900.8 mm. Additionally, the misplaced materials of coarse particles will continue to increase as the screening length increases. This provides theoretical and technical support for the optimization of the length of the VFFS.

Screening techniques have been widely deployed in industrial production for the size-separation of granular materials such as coal. The elliptical vibrating screen has been regarded as an excellent screening apparatus in terms of its high screening efficiency and large processing capacity. However, its fundamental mechanisms and operational principles remain poorly understood. In this paper, the sieving process of an elliptical vibrating screen was numerically simulated based on the discrete element method (DEM), and an approach coupling the DEM and the finite element method (DEM–FEM) was introduced to further explore the collision impact of materials on the screen deck. The screening time, screening efficiency, maximum stress and maximum deformation were examined for the evaluation of sieving performance. The effects of six parameters—length of the semi-major axis, length ratio between two semi-axes, vibration frequency, inclination angle, vibration direction angle and vibration direction—on different sieving results were systematically investigated in univariate and multivariate experiments. Additionally, the relationships among the four performance indexes were discussed and the relational functions were obtained. The conclusions and methodologies presented in this work could be of great significance for the design and improvement of elliptical vibrating screens.

The steady state motion of a machine-tool is numerically predicted with interaction of the chip/tool friction boundary. The chip/tool friction boundary is modeled via a discontinuous systems theory in effort to validate the passage of motion through such a boundary. The mechanical analogy of the machine-tool is shown and the continuous systems of such a model are governed by a linear two degree of freedom set of differential equations. The domains describing the span of the continuous systems are defined such that the discontinuous systems theory can be applied to this machine-tool analogy. Specifically, the numerical prediction of eccentricity amplitude and frequency attribute the chip seizure motion to the onset or route to unstable interrupted cutting.

In this paper, we make a theoretical analysis for the two-mass feeder. The dynamic model of the two-mass feeder is established. According to the analysis of vibration equations, the reasons that lead to forward and backward swing of the feeder are found. We collect a large number of experimental data in order to verify the correctness of the theoretical analysis, and give the corresponding improvements. The results provide a strong scientific basis for the examiner and the improvement of structural design, making the design become more rational.
