A PU screen plate (Polyurethane screen plate) is a wear-resistant screening panel made from polyurethane (PU) elastomer, used in vibrating screens and screening equipment for separating materials by size. It is widely applied in industries like mining, quarrying, aggregate production, coal processing, and sand washing.
DESCRIPTION
✅ What is a PU Screen Plate?
A PU screen plate is typically a modular panel or custom-sized flat or curved plate with openings (slots or holes) that allow certain-sized particles to pass through while retaining larger ones. It is mounted on vibrating screen decks or screening machines to classify or dewater materials.
? Key Features
High wear resistance: Polyurethane is extremely resistant to abrasion, especially in wet and coarse materials.
Elastic and impact-resistant: Absorbs vibration and impact from materials, reducing equipment damage and noise.
Anti-clogging: PU’s flexibility allows screen openings to resist blinding (clogging), ensuring consistent performance.
Corrosion-resistant: PU doesn’t rust and is unaffected by water, chemicals, or most industrial fluids.
Lightweight: Easier to install and replace than steel screens, reducing labor and structural load.
Longer lifespan: PU screen plates often last 3–5 times longer than wire or steel screens in many applications.
⚙️ Types of PU Screen Plates
Modular PU panels – Usually 305×610 mm or 300×1000 mm, designed for modular deck systems
Tensioned PU screen panels – For hook-screen systems; used like woven wire screens
Fine PU screens – High-precision openings for fine particle classification or dewatering
