Grates, screen panels & screening media
Grates and Screen Panels
Mill discharge, screening, crusher product sizing and high-temperature grates
Perforated parts serve different functions. Mill discharge grates retain grinding media while passing slurry; vibrating screen decks classify particle sizes; crusher screens control product size; and cooler grates carry clinker under airflow and thermal loads.
Main Products Discharge grates, modular screen panels, wire mesh, crusher screens and cooler grates
Key geometry Aperture shape and size, open area, thickness, curvature and mounting interface
Main materials Wear-resistant steel, rubber, polyurethane, metal wire and heat-resistant cast steel
Identification requirements Equipment, drawing number, screening target, material, temperature and wear records
Product ScopeScreening / discharge Target particle size, flow rate, open area and blinding tendency Construction Plate thickness, curvature, segmentation, support, tensioning and mounting method Operating Conditions Impact, abrasion, moisture, corrosion, temperature and process media Acceptance Material, aperture shape, dimensions, flatness, fit and identification
Group parts by equipment function before selecting materials and apertures
Mill grates, vibrating screen decks, crusher screens and high-temperature grates have different loading, mounting and flow requirements. Length, width or aperture size alone does not establish interchangeability.
Within each machine, identify grate bodies, supports, pulp lifters, clamping strips, tension hooks, rail seats and fasteners separately. We can organise supply as individual parts, associated wear systems or assemblies with a customer-confirmed scope.

Open the relevant product page to check OEM models, drawing numbers and material requirements.
SAG mill discharge grate
Retain grinding media while allowing slurry into the discharge system. Aperture geometry, open area, pulp lifters and the discharge cone jointly influence discharge capacity.
Ball Mill Discharge Grates
For the discharge end of grate-discharge ball mills. Distinguish these from overflow mills and check the actual discharge structure, ball size and slurry conditions.
Modular Polyurethane Screen Panels
Modular screening surfaces for suitable wet or dry duties. Check aperture shape, open area, modules, rail seats and locking systems.
Woven Wire Screen Mesh
Offers high open area and a wide range of specifications. Check wire diameter, weave, tension direction, hook edges and support spacing as a complete system.
Hammer Crusher Screens / Grates
Installed below the rotor to control discharge size. Check curvature, apertures, clearance, support and impact wear.
Cooler Grate Plates / Bars
Carry clinker and distribute cooling air. Material and structural selection must account for temperature, thermal cycling, abrasion, material leakage and ventilation together.
Bradford Breaker Screen Plates / Perforated Plates
Screening surfaces on the drum shell. Confirm drum diameter, plate curvature, apertures, joints and wear direction.
Granulator Screens / Grates
Work with the rotor, hammers and discharge clearance to control the product. Confirm the structure using the full equipment model and original drawing.
Material Options
Match materials to equipment positions and failure modes
Use material families for preliminary selection. Determine the grade, hardness, thickness and structure from drawings and operating conditions.
Functional checks
Apertures, open area and fastening determine performance
Changing apertures or materials within the same external shape can alter capacity, particle size, blinding, wear and operational safety.
| Product type | Core function | Required Checks |
|---|---|---|
| Mill discharge grates | Retain grinding media, pass slurry and connect to the pulp-lifting system | Mill type, ball size, aperture shape, open area, segmentation and discharge system |
| Modular rubber / polyurethane screen panels | Classify particles and help reduce blinding, noise or maintenance weight | Screen, aperture shape, module dimensions, rail seats, attachment and feed moisture |
| Woven Wire Screen Mesh | Wet or dry screening with relatively high open area | Wire diameter, material, weave, tensioning, hook edges, support and fatigue |
| Crusher screens / grates | Control discharge size while resisting impact and wear near the rotor | Curvature, discharge clearance, aperture shape, support, foreign objects and permissible wear |
| High-temperature grates | Support material and distribute cooling or process air | Temperature, thermal cycling, air openings, oxidation, material leakage, loads and installation joints |
