Astec Industries introduced its Vari-Frequency™ screening technology — new patent-pending technology available on horizontal screens — the first of its kind in the industry.
Astec introduces Vari-Frequency, ReMix, Intellipac and new concrete equipment
The reimagined screen deck design utilizes a structured frame paired with a live, free-moving deck that harnesses natural frequencies and vibrations activated both during operation and when material impacts the screen media. These vibrations stimulate the screen media and bulk material, reducing blinding and boosting productivity. The screen uses standard, side-tensioned screen wire cloth, does not require an external power source and has common interface points with other low-profile screens.
