Measuring 2540mm in diameter, the Vibroscreen classifies bulk chemicals, minerals, plastics, foods, dairy products, pharmaceuticals and other materials ranging from dry bulk solids to solids-laden slurries.
Quick-disconnect clamps between each screen frame provide rapid interior access for inspection, screen changes and wash down. An optional Air-Lift device pneumatically raises any of the screen frames, enabling one operator to perform a task that previously required two people.
The classifier contains two horizontal screens located one above the other in a vertical, cylindrical housing supported on a circular base by heavy duty springs. An imbalanced weight gyratory motor affixed to the housing imparts vibration.
Material to be separated is fed onto the centre of the top screen, which has the largest mesh. Oversize particles are moved to the screen periphery in a spiral pathway, and discharged through an outlet, while undersize particles drop through to the centre of the next screen. The mesh sizes become progressively smaller towards the bottom of the screener.
The gravity fed unit can operate on a batch or continuous basis. Made from epoxy coated carbon steel, it is also offered in stainless steel finished to industrial or sanitary standards.
Other options include various anti-blinding devices, Clean In Place (CIP) construction, and automatic lubrication systems.
