Vibratory Sieve

Applications & Use Cases

• Separating fine powders from coarser particles in pharmaceutical production.
• Grading aggregates and sand in construction material processing.
• Removing oversized contaminants from food ingredients like flour or spices.
• Dewatering slurries and separating solids from liquids in various industrial processes.
• Classifying granules and pellets in plastics manufacturing.

Typical Specifications

Typical throughput

Varies significantly based on mesh size and material, but units of this class commonly process between 100 kg/hr to 5,000 kg/hr.

Power supply

Typically requires a 3-phase electrical supply, commonly 400V, 50Hz, with motor ratings ranging from 0.5 kW to 5 kW.

Screen diameter

For this class of equipment, screen diameters commonly range from 450 mm to 1,500 mm.

Mesh sizes available

A wide range of mesh sizes are typically available, from very fine (e.g., 20 microns) up to coarse (e.g., 20 mm), depending on the application.

Construction material

Units are commonly constructed from stainless steel (304 or 316 grade) for food and pharmaceutical applications, or mild steel for general industrial use.

Footprint

Typically requires a floor space of 1m x 1m to 2m x 2m, with varying height depending on the number of decks.

Frequently Asked Questions

• What is the primary function of a vibratory sieve?

  A vibratory sieve uses vibration to separate materials by particle size. It's designed to efficiently remove oversized or undersized particles from a product stream.

• Can this equipment handle both wet and dry materials?

• What maintenance is typically required for a vibratory sieve?
