Parkson Corporation has introduced a new line of rotating drum screens require no daily maintenance or lubrication. The Rotoshear EZ-CARE line provides the same capture rate as traditional Rotoshear units while improving byproduct recovery and screening efficiency.

“The unit is lubrication-free, making it the first daily-maintenance-free pumped-flow rotating drum screen," says Serdar Umur, product manager. A typical rotating drum screen requires periodic maintenance to counteract friction and normal wear and tear on metallic components. Without maintenance, such a unit can suffer heat buildup and erosion, leading to increased power consumption and premature failure.

The new system eliminates frequent lubrication and maintenance by incorporating nonmetallic components in the wheel bearings and other key areas. “The unit's drive system features polymeric components that greatly reduce wear and prevent severe erosion between the coupled components,” said Umur.

The product line was developed after gathering data from Rotoshear operators to explore ways to make the system more operator-friendly. The system offers easy access to all major system components. The screen is available in more than a dozen configurations, with many application-specific custom features. Visit www.parkson.com.
