What Makes Komptech Trommel Screens Different?
Not all trommel screens are created equal. Komptech stands out with precision-engineered features designed to keep material moving and maximize output.
6 Features Of Komptech Trommel Screens That Will Blow Your Mind!
Komptech trommel screens stand out from the competition because of their efficiency, versatility, and smart engineering. Here’s what sets them apart:
The Spiral Guide Inside the Drum
Unlike many other trommels, Komptech uses a spiral-shaped guide inside the drum to keep material moving efficiently.
- Prevents clogging – No more material piling up or uneven flow.
- Maximizes screening time – Ensures a steady, controlled feed for better separation.
- Increases throughput – Keeps production moving fast while reducing wear and tear.
Smart Hopper Design & Load-Sensing
Unlike basic trommels, Komptech machines adjust their feed rate automatically to prevent overloading.
- Consistent performance – No more bottlenecks or slowdowns.
- fuel efficiency – The machine adapts instead of wasting energy on inefficiency.
Blazing Fast Drum Changes
Komptech screens offer interchangeable drums, allowing operators to swap screen sizes quickly depending on the material.
- Adjust for different applications – Wood waste, compost, aggregates, mulch—you name it.
- Faster drum changes – Less downtime means more productivity.
Aggressive Screening Action with Optional Cleaning Brushes
Screening wet, sticky materials? No problem. Many Komptech trommels come with brush systems that keep the drum clean.
- Prevents screen blinding – No more clogging from mud or wet organics.
- Keeps material moving – Maximizes separation even in tough conditions.
Built For Durability and Mobility
Komptech doesn’t just build trommels—they build machines that last and move easily between job sites.
- Heavy-duty steel construction – Built to take a beating.
- Tracked & wheeled options – Move where you need it, fast.
Fuel-Efficient Hybrid Power Options
Some Komptech trommels, like the Cribus series, offer hybrid-electric drives, cutting fuel costs and emissions.
- Eco-friendly screening – Less diesel, more efficiency.
- Lower operating costs – Save money without sacrificing power.
Bottom Line:
Komptech trommels aren’t just spinning screens—they’re precision-engineered, high-output machines designed to handle more material, more efficiently, with less downtime.
Inside Look: The Genius Behind Komptech’s Spiral Design!
Komptech trommel screens use a spiral-shaped guide or helix inside the drum to help move material efficiently through the screening process. This design is an important feature for ensuring consistent throughput and maximizing screening performance.
Improved Screen Efficiency
Spiral Guide System – Unlike standard trommels, Komptech screens use a built-in spiral system inside the drum that actively moves material forward, preventing build-up and increasing efficiency.
How It Works
- The trommel drum is a large rotating cylinder with perforations (holes) that allow finer materials to pass through while larger materials continue moving through the drum.
- Inside the drum, a spiral-shaped guide (also called a helical baffle or spiral fins) helps direct and control material flow.
- As the drum rotates, the spiral structure gently pushes material forward, preventing it from just tumbling in place.
- This controlled movement ensures that materials spend the right amount of time inside the drum for proper screening.
Why It’s Important
- Prevents clogging & uneven flow: Without the spiral, material could accumulate in one spot, leading to inefficiencies.
- Ensures consistent screening: Material moves steadily through the drum, allowing for uniform separation.
- Increases efficiency: By guiding material through at a steady pace, the trommel achieves higher throughput.
- Enhances screening accuracy: Finer material gets screened effectively while larger pieces continue through.
How It Benefits Users
- Helps process more material in less time.
- Reduces maintenance by minimizing material buildup.
- Works well with a variety of materials, including soil, compost, wood waste, and aggregates.
Why Settle for Slow, Clogged-Up Screens?
Your operation moves fast—shouldn’t your trommel screen keep up? If you’re tired of slow material flow, constant blockages, and inefficient separation, you’re using the wrong screen. Komptech trommels are built to screen faster, cleaner, and more efficiently, making your job easier while boosting your bottom line.
The Trommel That Saves You Time, Money, and Headaches
Every minute spent unclogging your screen is money down the drain. Every inefficient pass through your drum is lost productivity. With a Komptech Trommel screen, you get:
Longer machine life
Durable construction that stands up to the toughest jobs.
Lower operating costs
Fuel-efficient designs keep your expenses down.
Faster screening speeds
More material processed in less time.
Effortless material flow
No more downtime caused by blockages and uneven screening.
