Centrifugal Sifter-DAHAN Vibration Machinery

What is Centrifugal Sifter?

The Centrifugal sifter is capable of screening, stripping and deagglomerating bulk solid materials at high throughput rates with little to no noise, vibration or product degradation. The large-sized particles enter the discharge chute through the sieve holes, and the undersized products enter the discharge port through the cylinder in a spiral shape. The paddles rotate at a speed of 600-800RPM, which can break up the agglomerates, and the screening efficiency can reach 85. -95%, the residue on the screen is basically 0 (difficult to achieve with ordinary vibrating screens), and the output is 5-10 times that of ordinary vibrating screens. Centrifugal sifter screens are available in a variety of pore sizes to meet a variety of screening applications in the processing and packaging industries.

The Centrifugal sifter is available in a variety of sizes, the machine size is defined by the size of the screen surface, our largest machine, the WQS50-130, has a screen area of Ø30" x 1300" long and is available in carbon steel, 304 stainless steel or 316 stainless steel and is available in a variety of Finish options to suit your specific application.

Function of Centrifugal Sifter

Feedstock policing:Check to sift both product and minor ingredients to remove extraneous materials such as string, packing, insects, and bolts and for removing hard lumps of agglomerated products typically at the point of discharge from storage silos or sacks.

Sift, scalp and de-agglomerate dry materials at high rates

Scalping: Protecting processing or packaging equipment by removing the small percentage of products exceeding the maximum feedstock specification.

Classification: One or more sifters divide the product into the various grades required for further processing or packaging.

De-Dusting: Removal of fines that been generated during processing and handling which will otherwise spoil the appearance of a packed product or cause a problem during subsequent processing.

Centrifugal Sifter Types

A centrifugal sifter is a type of industrial equipment used for separating and classifying particles based on their size. There are several types of centrifugal sifters, including:

Horizontal Centrifugal Sifters

Also known as rotary sifters, these sifters have a cylindrical screen that rotates horizontally. The material is fed into the center of the screen, and the centrifugal force generated by the rotation causes the particles to move outward and separate based on their size.It is required that the fine material in the sieved raw materials should be 90% or more, which is suitable for fine powder sieving.

Vertical Centrifugal Sifters

These sifters have a vertically oriented screen that rotates around a central axis. The material is fed into the top of the sifter, and the centrifugal force separates the particles as they move down the screen.The wind generated by it will be stronger than the horizontal sieve, which is more suitable for large-capacity industrial sieving, used for sieving materials with more coarse powder.

Working Priciple of Centrifugal Sifter

The material fed by the auger into the stationary horizontal screen drum is propelled by the rotating paddle to the screen, the particles of suitable size enter the discharge chute through the screen hole, and the oversized material enters the discharge port through the cylinder screw. The lower part of the screen also contains a hatch that can be used to introduce a secondary air flow that returns some of the remaining fines from the coarse fraction to the vortex.

Advantages of Centrifugal Sifter

Handling powders, agglomerates and granules

Centrifugal force is used to separate particles of two different sizes. The centrifugal force generated by the paddle is also very suitable for breaking up agglomerates and agglomerated powders, and sieving to 530 mesh.

High productivity

The screening penetration rate can reach 85-95%, and the residue on the screen is 0 (which is difficult to achieve with ordinary vibrating screens). The screen area is 3.5 square feet and 6 square feet respectively, and the processing capacity is 5-10 times that of the vibrating screen.

Clean and hygienic

The fully enclosed construction eliminates dust problems, prevents dust leaks and protects operator safety.

No vibration and low noise level

Centrifugal sifter is very quiet and works without vibration, the sieve is very quiet, the noise level is below 80DB to be precise.

Quick screen change

The internal parts of the screen can be quickly disassembled without the use of tools, the screen change in 30 seconds, inspection and cleaning through the easy-to-remove screen.

Easy to clean

The internal parts of the sieve can be quickly disassembled without the use of tools, which allows for easy and fast cleaning.

Structure of Centrifugal Sifter

centrifugal sifter parts

Centrifugal sifter is mainly composed of vibration motor, machine base, screen, feeding and discharging propulsion device, etc.

Motor: The motor drives and rotates at approximately 500RPM, providing vibration-free performance and high throughput with little or no product degradation.

Screens: A variety of pore sizes are available to meet a variety of screening applications throughout the processing and packaging industry.

Hinged access doors on the side of the housing allow for visual inspection, and the shaft end housing with vents and external bearings can be removed with screw knobs for replacement, inspection or cleaning of screens and paddles.

Feeding and discharging propulsion device: The rotating paddle throws the material towards and through the hole of the screen cylinder, and sprays the oversized particles to the discharge port through the downstream end of the screen cylinder.

Options/Capacity Enhancements

Anti-blinding Devices

Dahan Machinery provides a variety of anti-blinding devices to increase production by discharging close-sized particles from the screen holes. These devices reduce the gap between the rotating paddle and the cylindrical screen without contacting or wearing the screen. Reducing the gap between the rotating element and the screen surface increases the screening rate at close-to-size conditions, thereby increasing throughput.

1. De-Blinding With Rubber: Rubber wiper blades handle fibrous materials that would otherwise get tangled in the bristles or around jagged edges. The rubber blade allows oversized particles to pass through the rotating blade and is also effective in liquid/solid separation.

2. De-Blinding With Air: The all-in-one air brush keeps the screen clean while handling fine meshes that are susceptible to damage or wear by mechanical anti-blinding devices. Air enters from the end of the hollow drive shaft and exits through multiple air nozzles, blowing the screen clean.

3. De-Blinding With Brush: The brush is flexible and held approximately 1/16" to 1/8" (1.6mm to 3.2mm) from the screen surface to prevent damage while allowing the desired particles to pass easily through the screen holes.

Product Customization

Centrifugal sifters can be customized to meet specific industrial applications. Some common customization types include:

1. Sanitary Centrifugal Sifters: They are typically made of SUS304 or 316Lstainless steel to meet specific requirements for cleanliness and hygiene in food, pharmaceutical and other hygienic applications. Sanitary features may include smooth, easy-to-clean surfaces, quick-release clamps for easy removal and cleaning.

2. In-line Centrifugal Sifters: These sifters are designed to be installed in a pipeline and are used to remove oversized or undersized particles from the product stream. The material flows through the sifter, and the centrifugal force separates the particles based on their size.

3. Low-Profile Centrifugal Sifters: These sifters are designed to fit in tight spaces and have a low profile. They are often used in applications where space is limited.

4. Standard Centrifugal Sifter with Cantilever Shaft: has a cantilever shaft with two externally mounted bearings between the screening chamber and the motor drive (no bearings on the hinged end plate), allowing all components to slide freely from the shaft end for cleaning, screen replacement or check.

5. Centrifugal Sifter With Bag Dump Station: With integrated bag dump station and dust collector, it can remove bag fragments and other oversized pollutants from manually dumped bulk materials, while protecting operators and factory environment from dust pollution.

6. Centrifugal sifter screener with Integral Feeder: The integrated feeder eliminates the need for a separate feeder while reducing headspace requirements. The feed controller also prevents overloads caused by fluctuations, thus extending the life of the screen.
