CVS-1240 | Vibrating Screen

CVS-1240 is the compact model in the CONSTMACH inclined vibrating screen range, designed to separate crushed material into precise size fractions in small to medium crushing and screening plants. With a screen box measuring 1.200 x 4.000 mm and a deck area of 4.8 m², it delivers a rated capacity of 70-95 tons per hour, making it a well-proportioned sizing unit for lower-throughput aggregate lines.

The function of a vibrating screen is multi-deck size separation: material is fed onto the top deck, and as the box vibrates, particles smaller than each mesh opening pass through while oversize travels across the deck to discharge. The CVS-1240 is offered in two, three and four deck configurations, allowing the producer to split feed into three, four or five graded products in a single pass. The two-deck base version is driven by a 7.5 kW motor and weighs 7.400 kg; the three-deck version uses an 11 kW drive at 7.700 kg, and the four-deck version retains the 11 kW drive at 8.000 kg.

The screen is fed from a conveyor downstream of a crusher and produces the saleable aggregate fractions, for example 0-5, 5-12, 12-22 and 22+ mm, depending on the mesh selection. Oversize from the bottom deck is normally returned to a crusher for further reduction, while the through products report to stockpile conveyors. Because gradation accuracy directly affects product value and compliance with specification, the screen is one of the most important quality-determining machines in the plant.

CONSTMACH screens can be produced in driven-from-top or driven-from-center versions, and the eccentric shaft is precision machined and ground from forged steel for reliable, balanced excitation. Bearings are sourced from established brands such as SKF, FAG, Timken and NSK, and the deck support frames are stress-relieved and supplied crowned or flat to suit the application. Huck bolt fastener construction is used throughout to maintain joint integrity under continuous vibration.

Screen media on the CVS-1240 can be steel woven mesh or polyurethane panels, selected according to the hardness and abrasiveness of the material and the required aperture. The bolted and welded, abrasion-resistant steel-lined feedbox and discharge lips protect the high-wear entry and exit points and are replaceable when worn.

The modular structure keeps the unit within standard transport dimensions and makes spare-part replacement and routine maintenance straightforward, which is particularly valuable for the compact plants this model typically serves.

As the smallest screen in the range, the CVS-1240 balances its 4.8 m² of deck area against a modest installed power, 7.5 kW on the two-deck version rising to 11 kW on the three and four-deck versions. This keeps running costs low while still delivering enough vibration energy to stratify the bed and present fines to the mesh across the 1.200 mm width. The 4.000 mm deck length suits the throughput range it serves, giving particles sufficient travel for an accurate cut without the larger footprint of the longer-deck models. Where a producer later needs more capacity, the wider and longer CVS units provide a clear upgrade path from this compact base.

For aggregate producers, quarries and recycling operations running modest-capacity lines, the CVS-1240 provides accurate, repeatable size separation at 70-95 t/h, turning crusher output into clean, specification-graded products with minimal contamination between fractions.

FAQ

The CONSTMACH CVS-1240 inclined vibrating screen is the size-classification machine of a crushing and screening plant. It takes crusher output and separates it into graded aggregate fractions. Understanding where it fits in the flowsheet, what media it uses and how it is maintained helps operators hold product quality and screen availability.

Where the CVS-1240 Sits in the Plant

The screen is positioned after a crushing stage and is fed by a belt conveyor. Through-products drop to stockpile conveyors, while oversize from the lower deck is typically returned to a crusher in a closed circuit. In a typical line the sequence is feeder, crusher, conveyor, screen, with the screen determining the final product gradation.

What It Handles and Deck Configurations

  • The CVS-1240 handles crushed stone, gravel and sand-sized material at 70-95 t/h.
  • Two decks produce three fractions, three decks produce four, and four decks produce five fractions in one pass.
  • The 1.200 x 4.000 mm box gives 4.8 m² of screening area; capacity depends on mesh size, material moisture and the required cut accuracy.

Deck Media

  • Steel woven wire mesh is used for hard, abrasive material and finer cuts.
  • Polyurethane panels are used where blinding or pegging is a problem and where longer media life is wanted.
  • Media is selected by aperture, open area and the hardness of the feed.

Maintenance

  • Inspect and re-tension the screen media regularly; loose mesh tears quickly and reduces efficiency.
  • Lubricate the eccentric shaft bearings on schedule and monitor bearing temperature.
  • Check the steel-lined feedbox and discharge lips for wear and replace before they fail.
  • Verify the support springs and that Huck-bolted joints remain tight under vibration.

Comparison With Alternatives

Compared with a static grizzly or trommel, an inclined vibrating screen offers higher accuracy and more decks in a smaller footprint. Within the CONSTMACH range, the CVS-1240 is the compact unit; for higher throughput or larger top sizes, the CVS-1640, CVS-1650, CVS-1850 and CVS-2470 offer progressively larger screen boxes and deck areas.

Installation and Commissioning

The CVS-1240 is supported on coil springs that isolate its vibration from the supporting structure, and it is installed at a working incline, typically in the region of 15 to 20 degrees, so material flows down the deck under gravity while the stroke stratifies the bed. At 7.400 to 8.000 kg depending on deck count, it sits on a modest steel support tower fed by a conveyor at the top end. During commissioning the eccentric drive is checked for the correct stroke and rotation, the springs are levelled so the box runs square, and the mesh apertures are confirmed against the target product sizes. Feed is introduced gradually so the bed depth and spread across the 1.200 mm width can be observed and the feed conveyor rate trimmed.

Operating Tips for Best Results

  • Spread the feed evenly across the full deck width; a feed concentrated on one side reduces efficiency and wears the mesh unevenly.
  • Avoid overloading beyond 95 t/h, as too deep a bed prevents fines from reaching the mesh and blurs the cut.
  • Choose polyurethane media for damp or near-size material that tends to blind steel mesh.
  • Re-tension steel mesh after the first hours of running, when initial stretch occurs.
  • Keep the discharge lips and chutes clear so classified fractions do not back up onto the deck.
