A circle throw screening machine for screening particulate material according to size is described. The machine comprises a housing (2) having a longitudinal aspect, an upper perforated deck (7), a frame (3) configured for mounting the housing, and a suspension system (4) for mounting the housing to the frame and configured to allow vibration of the housing relative to the frame. Three rotatable unbalanced drive shafts (5) are coupled to the housing (2) and configured to vibrate the housing in response to rotation of the drive shafts, wherein the three rotatable unbalanced drive shafts are equally spaced along the longitudinal aspect of the housing. A drive mechanism (6) is coupled to the unbalanced drive shafts (5) and configured to effect synchronous rotation of the three drive shafts in the same direction. The machine can achieve high acceleration of 6.4G and 9.7G through the use of two or three parallel shafts respectively (NB. 2 shafts is suffice for a G of 6.4 and 3 shaft is suffice for 9.7G) distanced from each other by a distance of about one quarter of the length of the deck, configured for synchronous rotation.

Provided is a building material manufacturing apparatus and a building material manufacturing method that are suitable for efficiently manufacturing a building material while suppressing clogging of a sieve portion for sieving the building raw material. The building material manufacturing apparatus of the present invention includes, for example, a sieve portion 10 and a receiving tool 30. The sieve portion 10 includes a receiving and sending sheet 11 with no sieve openings, onto which the building raw material M is dropped, and at least one sieve sheet 12 with sieve openings that is located below the sheet. The receiving and sending sheet 11 and the sieve sheet 12 can perform undulating motion, are inclined, and are arranged side by side in the inclination direction. The receiving tool 30 is for receiving the building raw material M that has passed through the sieve openings of the sieve portion 10. In the building material manufacturing method of the present invention, for example, in a state in which the receiving and sending sheet 11 and the at least one sieve sheet 12 are performing undulating motion, the building raw material M is dropped onto the receiving and sending sheet 11, moved from the receiving and sending sheet 11 onto the sieve sheet 12, subjected to sieving by the sieve sheet 12, and the portion that passes through the sieve openings of the sieve sheet 12 is accumulated on the receiving tool 30, whereby a mat with at least one layer is formed.

A system and method for coffee bean processing that includes a bean refinement chute with a bean grind inlet and a refined grind outlet; a filter system integrated into at least one surface within the chute; a vibration system operable in an active state that agitates bean grinds during progression from the bean grind inlet to the refined grind outlet; a refined grind chamber positioned adjacent to the refined grind outlet and thereby collects refined grinds; and a filtered grind chamber positioned beneath the filter system and thereby collects filtered grinds.

Disclosed is a vibrating material sorting screen with a substantially variable tilt angle and a tilt angle measuring device where the screen has a gear box which is horizontal when the screen is horizontal and inclined when the screen is inclined and further where the gear box has a plurality of oil level sensors or indicators therein which are sized, placed and configured to provide proper oil volume while the screen is oriented horizontally or at various inclines.

A mobile variable angle vibrating screen with the ability to process aggregate material in a horizontal orientation and at incrementally higher angles of inclination where changes in angles of inclination can be affected without the need to dismantle the vibrating screen and without the use of hand tools. The variable angle screen being configured: to blend output at all of the various operating angles of inclination, be transportable with a detachable bolt on feeder module; have an overhead feed conveyor which operates at a substantially horizontal configuration and at various operating angles of inclination.

A multi-deck screening assembly includes upper and lower screen decks, each having first and second deck sections. The upper deck's first deck section has first-size grading apertures, and its second deck section is downstream of the first deck section with second-size grading apertures larger than the first-size apertures. The lower deck's first section has third-size grading apertures and its second section is downstream of its first section with fourth-size grading apertures larger than the third-size apertures. A gap between the lower deck's first and second sections allows oversize material from the lower deck's first section to pass through to a first collection region. A diverter is positioned between the upper and lower decks and over the gap, whereby material from the upper deck collected on the diverter passes onto the lower deck's second section, thereby preventing undersize material that passes through the upper deck from passing directly through the gap.
