VG Feeder

High scalping efficiency, more tonnage


Metso VG Series™ primary scalping screens have been designed for the toughest applications, high capacity and the ability to process abrasive material, either in stationary or mobile crushing plants.

Maximizing the efficiency of the primary crushing stage across a wide variation of applications, VG Series™ grizzly scalpers are most often used with push feeders, apron feeders or vibrating pan feeders.

Ideal applications

Any kind of scalping application
Stationary, portable and mobile applications
Surface and underground applications

Crushing and screening contractors

 

Beneficial features


The speed and stroke are easily adjustable, ensuring optimal feed control of the primary crusher. The long stroke capability enables better scalping efficiency, delivering a linear motion with high G force (5.5 G). 

VG Series™ scalping screens are slightly inclined at 5° to reduce blinding when feed is sticky and contains fines (increased capacity). They can be fitted with various grizzly bar options to allow wide separation flexibility.

The vibrator beam is weld-free and fully huck-bolted for optimal, robust performance. The vibrator and cardan shaft design, in turn, ensure a more reliable operation than a direct belt-drive design.
