stationary grizzly
The simplest of all separating devices and the cheapest to install and maintain. It consists of a series of fixed bars or rails spaced the required distance apart in order that the "undersize" may drop through. The use of a stationary grizzly is limited to coarse screening of dry material (aperture 2 in or 5.1 cm and larger), although it is sometimes used with openings as small as 3/4 in (1.9 cm), the efficiency dropping off in proportion. It is not satisfactory for moist or sticky material.
