Screen G-Force Calculator
G-force of a vibrating screen from its stroke and speed, with typical operating ranges.
Result
— g
screen acceleration
Typical for this screen3.5–4.5 g
Range check—
Method
g = stroke × RPM² ÷ 70,400 = 0.375 × 900² ÷ 70,400 = 4.3 g
Standard vibrating-screen relation, with stroke as total peak-to-peak throw in inches. Pair large openings with slow speed and large stroke, small openings with high speed and small stroke, per the Astec/Telsmith Mineral Processing Handbook. Running well above the typical band accelerates wear on bearings and structure. Planning estimate.
