Manufacturing screens for UNTHA RS-Series – Quality and cost comparison
Eurotools produces OEM-compatible screens for the UNTHA RS range. These screens are manufactured to match the original specifications, fit precisely in the machine, and function reliably in demanding shredding applications.
Industrial Screens: What They Are and Why They Matter
The screen in an UNTHA RS shredder determines the output granularity and significantly influences the machine’s throughput and performance. Correct screen design ensures:
- precise material sizing,
- consistent end-product fraction,
- reduced overloading on the rotor and drive train,
- improved process efficiency.
Eurotools’ screens are produced with high-strength steel and precise perforation, matching OEM requirements and often customizable to suit customer-specific hole pattern or diameter requests.
Manufacturing Process
1. Material Selection
Eurotools uses quality steels (often abrasion-resistant where applicable) to achieve a balance between durability and cost-efficiency. Screens can be made in different materials depending on application: standard structural steel or hardwearing grades such as Hardox (on request).
2. Precision Perforation
Perforation is CNC-drilled or laser-cut to meet predefined hole diameter and pattern required for each machine series. Screens can be produced with different hole sizes and shapes to match the required final product fraction for specific waste types.
3. Forming and Finishing
Screens for RS machines often have complex geometries (e.g., curvature or stepped profiles) to ensure stable installation and correct engagement with the rotor. Eurotools employs precision forming, finishing, and quality checks to ensure flatness and fit. Final inspection confirms dimensional accuracy and functionality before dispatch.
Compatibility Across UNTHA RS Models
Eurotools supplies screens designed to fit the following UNTHA shredders:
- RS30 – smaller industrial units
- RS40 – medium size units
- RS50 – versatile shredders
- RS60 – heavy-duty mid range
- RS100 – high-throughput industrial shredders
- RS150 – largest in the RS range
Each screen is engineered for the specific machine size and rotor profile, ensuring proper function and installation. Details of various compatible screens are available directly from Eurotools’ product listings.
