Intensive coal screening requires fit-for-purpose equipment

As coal beneficiation is generally a screening-intensive process, screening equipment is an important part of a coal plant and a major investment for the operation, says vibrating and original equipment manufacturer (OEM) and supplier Kwatani CEO Kim Schoepflin. The local coal sector comprises various mine operators, from large global operations to small, emerging miners. Schoepflin points out that owing to this diversity, it is crucial that equipment suppliers understand the needs of individual operators to ensure fit-for-purpose equipment is supplied.
