KOSUN Linear Motion Shale Shaker

The shale shaker is the first stage of solids control equipment in drilling purification system. It can
remove cuttings with diameter above 75m brought from the drilling well and leave the liquid
with smaller particles into the tanks below, which will flow into next grade solids control
equipment to be treated.
Structure of Shale Shaker Deck
KOSUN LS series drilling shale shaker is an equipment with welded structure. Vibration motor &
screen plate base are installed into screen basket with special parts. Screen basket is fixed on the
adjustment beam. At each of the four vertexes of the screen basket put a vibration damping spring,
which can prevent the adjoining parts and devices from being affected by the vibration.There are
several screen panels on screen basket, and they are fixed and adjusted by snap-on screw bolts and
hooking tensioners so that the combined effect of horizontal and vertical supporting bars may
provide enough strength for screens basket. And the panels appear in an arched shape, thus
making the panels more easily tensioned and more intimately connected with the frames, blessing
them with longer service life as well as increasing the processing efficiency of particles.
AWD Angle Adjustment System
KOSUN patented AWD angle adjustment system can raise or lower the end of screen basket while
the machine is working. This part includes two vertical column assemblies that are connected on
the upper beam assembly and are attached to the shaker base. The mobile part of AWD consists of
the lower beam, limiting device that controls vertical movement and screw rod that drives the
upward and downward movement of the screen basket. Both ends of screw rod are hinged with the
upper and lower beam assemblies respectively. Positive and negative rotating handles can make
the screen basket move upward and downward respectively. The screen basket angle of shale
shaker can be arbitrarily adjusted within -1~5 at an increment of 0.5as required.
Feeder of Shale Shaker
The mud returned from the well or cuttings to be treated will flow into the shale shaker via the
feeder. The feeders can be categorized into weir type, box type and bucket type. The weir type and
box type feeders are mainly used to buffer the flow rate of drilling fluid and evenly distribute the
fluid onto the screen to reduce the impact of drilling fluid on the screen, extend the service life of
screen and improve the treatment effect. Besides, the weir type feeder can also short-circuit the
machine if necessary. The bucket type feeder is mainly used with the dryer shaker to collect and
distribute cuttings.
The Economy of Linear Motion Shale Shaker
KOSUN linear motion shale shaker is especially effective while drilling top-hole sections where
heavy and high-volume solids are usually encountered. During the interval, shale shaker may
generate powerful G-forces and its effective vibrating motion can quickly remove the dense solids
from screens and particles from wells. Linear motion shale shaker is also called stainless steel
screen shale shaker.
Linear Motion Shale Shaker Features & Benefits:
1. G-forces linear motion up to 7.4 G(adjustable depending on the situation)
2. Hi-speed conveyance of cuttings
3. Higher shaker-fluids capacity
4. Able to process heavier solids loads
5. Enhances cuttings processing volume
6. Able to adjust the basket angle adjusting device from -1~5
7. Can easily change the changes with the one-sided tensioning system installed
8. Can choose between the weir feeder or box feeder
9. Can choose between PMD and PWP hooking screens
