- Simple retrofit installation
- No additional motor required
- Available in multiple sizes
- Suitable for new and existing vibratory sieves
- Low maintenance operation
- Cost-effective productivity upgrade
How the RJ Sweep Works
The RJ Sweep utilises the natural vibration generated by the screening machine to rotate specially designed brush assemblies across the mesh surface.
As the brushes continuously travel around the screen, they remove material build-up before it can cause blockages. This ensures that more open mesh area remains available for screening, allowing material to pass through efficiently throughout the production process.
Unlike traditional cleaning methods that require operators to stop production and manually clean the screen, the RJ Sweep works automatically while the machine remains in operation.
The result is higher efficiency, improved product consistency and reduced downtime.
Suitable for a Wide Range of Industries
Key Benefits of Installing an RJ Sweep
Increased Throughput
Blocked mesh apertures reduce screening capacity. By keeping the mesh clear, the RJ-Sweep allows more material to pass through the screen, helping maximise production rates.
Reduced Downtime
Frequent cleaning stops can significantly impact productivity. Continuous mesh cleaning helps minimise interruptions and keeps production moving.
Improved Product Quality
Consistent screening performance ensures accurate separation and classification of materials, leading to a more uniform final product.
Lower Maintenance Costs
Reducing the need for manual cleaning decreases labour requirements and helps extend the life of screening components.
Easy Installation
The RJ-Sweep can be retrofitted to many existing vibratory sieves, providing an affordable upgrade without replacing existing equipment.
Designed for Reliability
The RJ-Sweep has been engineered to provide dependable performance in demanding industrial environments.
With no dedicated drive motor required, the system remains simple, robust and energy efficient. The brush assemblies are designed for long service life and can be quickly replaced when required.
Available in three sizes, the RJ-Sweep can be configured to suit a wide range of screening applications and machine diameters.
Why Upgrade Your Existing Screening Process?
Many screening operations suffer from reduced efficiency due to mesh blinding, particularly when handling:
• Fine powders
• Damp materials
• Static-prone products
• Lightweight plastics
• Sticky materials
• Recycled products containing contamination
Installing an RJ-Sweep can provide an immediate improvement in screening performance while helping operators achieve greater productivity from existing equipment.
