How Much More Expensive Is a Large Vibrating Screen Than a Small One?

Vibrating screens with larger throughputs are usually more expensive than those with smaller throughputs. The price difference between large-capacity vibrating screens and small-capacity vibrating screens is mainly affected by factors such as processing capacity, structural complexity, materials and processes, brand and manufacturer.

Factors Affecting Price

1. Processing Capacity

The larger the processing capacity, the higher the equipment design and manufacturing costs may be. For example, a high-capacity vibrating screen may require a larger screen surface, a more powerful exciter, and a more robust structure, all of which increase costs.

2. Structural Complexity

A high-capacity vibrating screen may require a more complex structural design to ensure efficient and stable operation. For example, the design and manufacturing costs of multi-layer linear screens and heavy-duty linear vibrating screens are generally higher than those of lightweight linear vibrating screens.

3. Material and Craftsmanship

High-quality materials and advanced manufacturing processes can also lead to higher prices. For example, a vibrating screen made of stainless steel is generally more expensive than one made of ordinary steel.

4. Brand and Manufacturer

Prices vary between brands and manufacturers. Well-known brands and manufacturers typically offer higher product quality and service guarantees, but also come with higher prices.

5. Price Range

Lightweight linear vibrating screens: Prices typically range from several thousand to several tens of thousands of RMB, depending on the screen surface size, number of layers, and material.

Heavy-duty linear vibrating screens: Prices can be higher, typically ranging from several tens of thousands to several hundred thousand RMB, depending on the processing capacity, screen surface size, and material.
