Abstract

An oscillating screen (13) is positioned between a grate system (11) of a grate cooler and a crusher (16) to separate the fines from the material discharged by the grate cooler prior to feeding the remaining clinkers to the crusher (16). This arrangement of equipment greatly increases production and markedly reduces wear of crusher components.
