KOSUN shale shaker: Key equipment for drilling mud treatment

In the entire process of drilling mud treatment, the Balanced Elliptical Motion Shale Shaker plays a crucial role as the "first line of defense". As one of the core devices of the solid control system, the KOSUN Balanced Elliptical Motion Shale Shaker, with its high G-force excitation strength and rapid drill cuttings transportation capacity, can quickly separate the large amount of drill cuttings generated during the drilling process from the mud. This equipment uses a vibration motor as the vibration source, causing the material to be thrown up on the screen while moving forward in a straight line. It features low energy consumption and high output, laying a solid foundation for the subsequent mud purification treatment and directly affecting the efficiency and cost control of drilling operations.
 
The operating principle of the drilling fluid shaker is based on the synergistic effect of mechanical vibration and screen filtration. The KOSUN Balanced Elliptical Motion Shale Shaker enables rapid replacement of the screen mesh through a quick-installation tensioning system, and the shaker frame Angle adjustment device can be flexibly adjusted within the range of -1° to 5°. When the mud carrying drill cuttings flows into the screen surface from the weir or box-type feed box, under the powerful linear vibration, the liquid and fine drill cuttings in the mud pass through the hook-edge shaker or the flat screen and enter the lower equipment, while the drill cuttings with a particle size larger than the shaker holes are efficiently thrown out along the inclined direction of the shaker surface. The mesh count and material of the screen are flexibly selected based on the geological conditions of the drilling. Its fully enclosed structure ensures no dust spillage. In soft strata, low-mesh shakers are used to increase processing capacity, while in hard rock strata, high-mesh shakers are adopted to enhance separation accuracy.
 
 
                
 
In practical applications, the performance of balanced elliptical motion shale shakers is directly related to the reuse rate of mud. The KOSUN balanced elliptical motion shale shaker is particularly suitable for processing large-volume and high-density drilling fluids, and has obvious advantages in deep well drilling. On-site data shows that after using this type of high-performance vibrating screen, the cuttings removal rate has increased to over 95%, the mud replenishment volume has decreased by 30%, and the cost of single-well drilling has been reduced. Its adjustable excitation intensity can adapt to the requirements of different working conditions. When dealing with high-viscosity mud, it can output a powerful excitation force to quickly remove a large amount of solid phase, avoiding the retention of drill cuttings and the increase in mud viscosity.
 
As the first step in the purification of drilling mud, the stable operation of the balanced elliptical motion shale shaker is an important prerequisite for ensuring drilling safety and improving economic benefits. KOSUN balanced elliptical motion shale shaker, with its remarkable advantages of efficient separation and energy conservation and consumption reduction, will continue to play an irreplaceable fundamental role in the future intelligent drilling system.
