What is Sieve Bend Screens

Introduction

Sieve bend screens also known as side hill screens, parabolic screens, run down screens, gravity screens and DSM screens. Sieve bends are cross-flow screens. The profile wires are slightly tilted so that the leading edge is position higher which greatly increases the dewatering capacity.

A sieve bend consists of a concave curved profile wire screen mounted in a frame with the screen openings perpendicular to the flow. A curved screen has greater capacity than a flat wedge screen due to forces exerted as material flows against the curved surface.
