The term drum sieve is commonly used in the field of engineering and construction as a tool for filtering and separating materials. However, there are other synonyms and related terms that can be used interchangeably such as trommel, rotary screen, and drum screen. The trommel is similar to a drum sieve, but typically has a rotating drum with holes that allows smaller particles to fall through. The term rotary screen is used to describe a device that is used to separate solid and liquid materials through a rotating cylindrical screen. Drum screen is also another term that can be used to describe a sieve with a rotating cylinder that is used to separate materials of different sizes.
