Tinsley Equipment Company supplies Derrick Stack Sizer screening machines for high-capacity frac sand processing. These multi-deck screening systems are designed to increase throughput, improve product recovery, and reduce operating costs in frac sand plants.
How Many Decks Does a Derrick Stack Sizer Have?
Derrick Stack Sizer screening machines typically have 5 to 8 decks depending on the application. Multi-deck configurations increase screening area within a compact footprint, allowing higher capacity and improved efficiency.

How Many Decks Does a Derrick SuperStack Have?
The Derrick SuperStack screening machine is designed with up to 8 decks, providing high-capacity fine screening for frac sand and manufactured sand applications.

High Tonnage Frac Sand Screening
Producing API in-spec frac sand from your wash plant is easier with high-capacity multi-deck screening machines.
The expanded capacity per screen provides several advantages:
- Reduced size of supporting structures
- Less flow dividers
- Less pumps are needed to operate and maintain
- Reduced capital costs and operating costs for frac sand screening
Expanding on the success of the 5-Deck Stack Sizer, Derrick developed the expanded 8-deck model called the SuperStack screening machine. Capable of processing 2-3 times more frac sand as the original 5 deck Stack Sizer, while maintaining almost the same footprint.
Not only were the number of decks increased, but the width and length of each deck is expanded. A new panel tensioning system was implemented on the SuperStack allowing for simple and fast panel changes.
The SuperStack Screening Machine uses Derrick Polyweb urethane screen surfaces. These urethane screen panels have a high open area, allowing for high tonnage particle sizing with a screening efficiency of 90% or higher. Panel life can be expected to last 6-12 months before replacement is needed.

Low maintenance and operating costs
- 10HP total – No lubrication needed.
- 100% solids urethane coating for vibrating screen frame
- Bonded rubber, nitrile rubber, and 100% solids urethane linings for feed boxes and discharge hoppers
The high screening capacity of this unit allows frac sand producers to change the way their current wet plant operates, or even eliminate the need for costly dry screening.
