Vibratory Screening Tools and Calculators
ScreenerKing's free online tools help you make faster, more accurate decisions about screen selection, mesh sizing, and equipment capacity. Each tool is built on the same technical knowledge our team uses every day to help customers solve screening challenges, and is available for immediate use at no cost.
These tools complement our Knowledge Hub articles and buyer's guides. If you need more detailed guidance after using a tool, our team is always available at (866) 265-1575 or through our contact page.
Mesh-to-Micron Conversion Calculator
Open the Mesh-to-Micron Calculator
The Mesh-to-Micron Conversion Calculator instantly converts between U.S. standard mesh sizes, microns, millimeters, and inches. Enter any value in one unit and get the equivalent in all others. This is one of the most common conversions in vibratory screening, and having an accurate, fast reference eliminates errors when specifying screens or interpreting particle size data.
This tool covers the full range of mesh sizes from 4 mesh (4,750 microns) through 635 mesh (20 microns), and includes wire diameter and open area percentage data for each standard mesh size. For a complete static reference, see our Mesh Size Conversion Chart article.
Replacement Screen Finder
Open the Replacement Screen Finder
The Replacement Screen Finder helps you locate the exact ScreenerKing replacement screen that fits your existing separator. Select your separator brand (Sweco, Kason, Midwestern Industries, Cleveland Vibratory, or others), enter your screen diameter, and specify your mesh size and material. The tool returns matching ScreenerKing products with pricing, specifications, and direct links to purchase.
This tool is especially useful for operations that are switching from OEM screens to ScreenerKing for the first time and want to confirm exact compatibility. For manual cross-referencing, visit our OEM Cross-Reference Chart.
Screen Selection Quiz
Take the Screen Selection Quiz
Not sure which screen you need? The Screen Selection Quiz walks you through a series of questions about your application, including your industry, the material you are screening, your target particle size, your production volume, and any special requirements like sanitary compliance or corrosion resistance. Based on your answers, the tool recommends specific mesh sizes, materials (304 SS, 316 SS, or T430), and screen configurations.
The quiz takes about two minutes and is a helpful starting point for new applications or when you are evaluating a switch from your current screen setup. For a deeper dive into selection criteria, read our Replacement Screen Buyer's Guide.
Throughput Estimator
The Throughput Estimator provides a baseline estimate of how much material a vibratory screener can process per hour based on your inputs. Enter your material type, approximate particle size distribution, screener diameter, number of decks, and mesh size, and the tool calculates an estimated throughput range in pounds per hour.
Throughput estimates are starting points, not guarantees. Actual capacity depends on many variables including material moisture content, bulk density, feed rate consistency, and screening efficiency requirements. For applications where precise capacity is critical, we recommend discussing your requirements with our engineering team or reviewing our guide on How to Size a Vibratory Screener.
Need Help Beyond What These Tools Provide?
These tools handle the most common screening calculations and product lookups, but vibratory screening is a field where experience matters as much as formulas. If your application involves unusual materials, tight specifications, or complex multi-step separation, our team is here to help. Request a custom quote or call (866) 265-1575 to discuss your requirements with a screening specialist who has seen it all in 30-plus years.
