Voith’s New C-bar HerculeX Designed for High Loads

 

Voith, Germany, is launching a new, strong screen basket--C-bar HerculeX that can withstand very high loads. It is made of wear-resistant material and is suitable for various applications in pre-screening and fine screening, fractionation, broke, and thick stock screening, and also in the approach flow system.

C-bar HerculeX has very high open screening areas and a special bar geometry. The new screen basket can be tailored to the respective screening requirements and production conditions by varying the widths, slot widths, and angles of the bars. Its exceptionally high stability and strength are due to its patented hybrid technology, an improvement of Voith’s clamping technology. An individually customizable chrome layer provides wear protection. 

The screen basket can be used in all Voith and third party screening machines and is suitable for all paper grades. The best screening results are achieved in combination with a Voith rotor application.
