Screens on Ultihire
Screening plant on Ultihire falls into three groups. Inclined and horizontal screens (two- and three-deck) size crushed product into finished aggregate. Heavy-duty scalping screens take raw feed — quarry overburden, demolition rubble, topsoil — and pull out the oversize before it goes anywhere near a crusher. Trommels and flip-flow screens handle wet, sticky or fine material that would blind a conventional deck.
Compare between listings: deck size and number of decks, media fitted (woven wire, punch plate, finger screens, polyurethane) and which apertures the owner can supply, stockpile conveyor heights, and whether the machine is set up for direct feed from an excavator or loader.
Choosing the right screen
Start from your material and moisture. Dry crushed rock screens easily on a standard inclined screen. Damp sand, clay-bound topsoil or wet recycled material needs a scalper with finger decks or a trommel, otherwise you will spend the day cleaning blinded mesh. Then think about product count: a three-deck screen gives you four products from one machine, which is often the difference between one plant and two.
If you are pairing a screen with a hired crusher, check the crusher listing first — some already have an onboard screen and you may only need a scalper up front.
Before you accept a hire
Ask what media is on the machine right now and how long a deck change takes. Ask whether spare decks in your aperture are included or extra. Check the conveyor discharge heights against your loader and the stockpile footprint on site.
Crushing & screening hire in Perth
Perth has one of the busiest crushing and screening markets in the country for its size. Limestone quarries along the coastal plain, hard-rock operations in the Darling Scarp, a steady stream of demolition concrete from the metro area and a civil program that never seems to stop all need mobile plant, and much of it sits idle between jobs. That is what Ultihire is built to fix.
Because listings show suburb and delivery radius, you can find plant that is already on your side of the river and avoid a float from the other side of the metro. Owners in the northern suburbs, the eastern industrial belt around Hazelmere and Forrestfield, and the south around Kwinana and Rockingham list here.
Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between a scalper and a screen?
A scalper is a heavy-duty screen built to take raw, unsorted feed straight from the digger and remove oversize. A finishing screen sizes already-crushed material into products. Many jobs use both.
Can I screen topsoil or sand with a hired screen?
Yes. For damp or clay-bound topsoil ask for a scalper with finger decks or a trommel — a standard inclined screen with wire mesh will blind.
Do screens come with different mesh sizes?
Owners list what is fitted and what spare decks they hold. Confirm the apertures you need before accepting so a deck change is not a surprise cost.
