Simaflex Engineering
We know that every screening component — from spray systems to screen panels and chutes — should do more than meet specifications or tick a box. We show you how to reduce moisture, prevent material binding, and improve plant availability, while operating consistently from shutdown to shutdown.
We partner with clients who expect more from their screening process. We don’t just supply parts — we design with intent, engineer for reliability, and deliver integrated systems that improve performance across the entire screening circuit.
Core Product Categories
Engineered spray systems that maximise plant availability, reduce material carry back, and enhance screening efficiency — from shutdown to shutdown.
- Custom Spray Bars: Designed for screen decks, chutes, and conveyors to suit dust suppression, fines washdown, and lump screening.

Built for abrasive conditions
Engineered chute designs and wear protection systems that control material flow, minimise hang-up, and extend asset life — from shutdown to shutdown.
- Flow-Optimised Geometry Review: Identify blockages, dead zones, and wear areas.
- Custom Chute Redesign: Resolve flow bottlenecks, reduce liner wear, and eliminate material hang-up.
- Custom Wear Liners: Using ceramics, rubber and other composite materials – selected to match site specific abrasion and impact profiles.
- Integrated Spray Management: Combine mechanical and hydraulic flow optimisation.
Key Benefits:
- Smoother flow with geometry that reduces hang-up and blockages
Longer wear life with site-specific liners (ceramic, rubber, composite)
Less downtime via modular, easy-to-replace panels
Lower maintenance through targeted diverters and impact zones
Safer access with fewer manual interventions
Accurate fit using 3D scans or existing drawings

Key Benefits
Improved screen stability and vibration isolation
Reduced structural stress on screen decks and support frames
Longer screen and spring life with proper load distribution
Lower noise and vibration transfer to surrounding plant areas
Fit-for-purpose spring selection based on load, travel, and duty cycle
Minimal downtime with direct replacements or upgraded options
Engineered solutions that optimise the direction, velocity, and spread of material across screening decks — delivering cleaner separation and higher screening efficiency.
Flow diverters and spreaders to evenly distribute material across the screen width
Velocity curtains and deflectors to control feed speed and impact angle
Custom flow control features designed to reduce loading imbalances and oversize carryover
Key Benefits
Improved screening efficiency through uniform material presentation
Reduced screen blinding and pegging with consistent flow rates
Less oversize and misplaced fines from controlled impact velocity
Extended screen panel life by avoiding high-wear hotspots

Easier commissioning and tuning with tailored flow correction hardware
Key Projects
Reduced downtime and cut maintenance costs by replacing rigid spray bars with impact-resistant, flexible spray modules. Delivered longer operational life and improved screening performance with Simaflex-engineered solutions.
Conducted full root cause analysis on chronic screen blockages, leading to a 90% reduction in downtime, improved throughput, and the foundation for automated washdown systems.
