Delivering certainty at every screening duty on your flowsheet

Screens classify material by particle size and shape, separate feed into valuable and waste streams, and remove excess moisture. They sit at almost every stage of the flowsheet, which is why screening performance shows up in the results of the equipment around it rather than only in its own numbers.

Five, named by what they do. LUDO Banana screens for high-tonnage scalping and sizing, LUDO Horizontal screens for mill discharge and fine screening, LUDO Inclined screens for sizing and reclaim duties, LUDO Dewatering screens for moisture removal, and LUDO Trash screens for process water and carbon safety. Each is available in single, double and triple deck configurations.

Material characteristics, target cut size and output, screening area and deck configuration, maintenance access, operating environment, and budget all shape the answer. FLS screening specialists work through these with you to define the duty, then select the geometry, motion profile and media against it.

Crushing circuit screens prioritise high-capacity scalping and sizing, to protect crusher utilisation and control recirculating load. That duty usually calls for LUDO Banana screens in multi-slope configurations. Grinding and classification screens focus on precise size separation at SAG discharge, to reduce overgrinding and hold energy efficiency. That duty usually calls for LUDO Horizontal screens.

Both carry the same engineering standard. Configured to order draws the screen from the standard LUDO range, with the drawings, supporting documents and budgetary pricing generated from that configuration. Engineered to order starts from the constraint in your plant, so deck dimensions, feed and discharge arrangement and structural interfaces are designed around the position the screen has to occupy. The route changes the engineering effort, not the standard.
