High-Capacity Potash Screening Success in the Middle East

When one of the world’s leading potash producers in the Middle East faced a challenge in meeting strict product quality requirements, they turned to Triple/S Dynamics’ Texas Shaker for a proven, high-performance screening solution.

The producer required 750 metric tons per hour of granular potash with precise removal of fines at a 2 mm cut point. Approximately 10% of the incoming material consisted of undersized particles that needed to be efficiently screened out to maintain product quality. Their goal was to push capacity while reducing fines in the finished product to below 3%, an ambitious benchmark that many traditional screening systems struggle to achieve at this scale.

Our engineers crafted a custom solution to meet these high production goals without sacrificing throughput. Some of the highlights to this custom shaker include:

  • Custom deck configuration optimized for sorting fines
  • A newly developed infeed distribution system that ensures uniform product spread across all decks
  • Precision vibratory motion control to maintain consistent cut accuracy
  • Robust, low-maintenance design suitable for harsh mining and mineral processing environments

This tailored approach allowed the machine to maintain throughput while increasing screening efficiency-critical in high-volume potash production. As a result, the customer found:

  • Cleaner, more uniform potash
  • Improved product consistency
  • Reduced downstream waste
  • Stronger overall process efficiency
