Indented Cylinder Separator

Length Grading of all Granular Materials

HIGHLIGHTS

  • Used for length grading of all granular materials, such as wheat, oat, maize, rice, fine seeds, lentils, sticks from sunflower or sugar beet, plastic particles, etc., as well as for the extraction of unwanted short or long admixtures.
  • Through the inlet housing, the granular material to be graded flows into the interior of the rotating cylinder, whose cover is equipped with special deep-drawn teardrop or spherical-shaped pockets for the most precise length separation.

Indented Cylinder Separator Process

Product passes from the inlet housing into the interior of the rotating cylinder, the cover of which is provided with impressed pockets or so-called indents.

Grains that embed themselves in the indents are carried, and after a certain distance, fall out of the pockets into the trough and are discharged by a screw conveyor.

Grains which are larger than the indents remain inside the shell and are carried to the outlet where the shell empties into the outlet casing. Depending on the required grading, the incoming product is sorted according to roundness or length.

Product Overview

Indented Cylinder Separator

The indented cylinder separator is used for grading by length of all granular materials such as wheat, oats, fine seeds, lentils, for separating stalks from sunflower and beet seeds and for separating unwanted long or short product impurities. The size of grains can vary between 1.0 mm and 24 mm.

Depending on the required grading, the incoming product is sorted according to roundness or length.
