NON Centrifuge Spinner Line

• Dewatering of washed produce like salads, fruits, and vegetables in food processing.
• Removing excess liquid from components after washing in industrial manufacturing.
• Drying small parts or bulk materials in various production lines.
• Separating liquids from solids in batch or continuous processes where centrifuge action is not suitable.

Typical capacity

For spinner lines, capacity is typically measured in throughput, often ranging from several hundred kilograms to over a tonne per hour, depending on the basket size and cycle time.

Power supply

Commonly found on units of this type, a 3-phase industrial power supply (e.g., 400V, 50Hz) is typically required to drive the motor.

Basket material

Baskets are typically constructed from stainless steel (e.g., 304 or 316 grade) for hygiene and corrosion resistance, especially in food applications.

Footprint

The footprint for a spinner line can vary significantly, but typically requires a dedicated area for the spinner unit itself, plus space for infeed and outfeed conveyors or hoppers.

Dewatering efficiency

Dewatering efficiency typically ranges from 80-95% moisture reduction, depending on the product, spin speed, and duration.

Control system

Units commonly feature a basic control panel for start/stop and speed adjustment, with more advanced systems offering programmable cycles.

Maintenance requirements

Maintenance typically involves regular cleaning, lubrication of bearings, and periodic inspection of belts and motor components.

• What is a 'NON Centrifuge Spinner Line'?

  This refers to a system designed for dewatering or drying using centrifugal force, but often implies a simpler, more robust design than a laboratory centrifuge, built for higher volume industrial applications rather than precise analytical separation.

• How does a spinner line differ from a traditional centrifuge?

• What types of products are suitable for a spinner line?

• Can this unit be integrated into an existing production line?

• What safety features are typically included?

• Is this unit suitable for continuous operation?

Centrifuges are valued across laboratories and biotech facilities for reliable sample separation. Buyers typically prioritise rotor compatibility, temperature stability in refrigerated models, and ease of maintenance when purchasing used units. Industry sentiment reflects appreciation for durable construction and consistent performance. Key considerations include verifying motor condition, checking calibration history, and confirming availability of compatible rotors. Well-maintained examples offer strong value and longevity, though wear on seals and bearings warrants inspection. Speed range and capacity alignment with intended applications remains important for operational efficiency.
