Direct Drive. Direct Impact.
They save energy, are smaller, even quieter, are exchanged in literally no time so that your centrifugal separator does what you want it to do: rotate and make money - direct drives have a direct impact on your results, sustainability goals and production environment.
For the first time, direct drives are now also available for separators of smaller capacities so that you can profit from all the benefits of this design principle regardless of capacity.
Highest energy efficiency
Up to 7% less energy consumption compared to belt, up to 10% to gear.
Less Downtime
No additional stress on spindle makes for less wear and higher uptime (up to 99%).
Pre-assembled drive-spindle unit
Fast and easy exchange of drive system.
Reduced footprint
360° accessibility, less weight, better and easier handling during service.
Reduced noise level
Up to 7db less noise, perceived up to 50% less.
No cooling ribs for dairy and renewables applications
Hygienic design, better cleanability, cleaner production environment.
Separators with exchangeable direct drives.
Direct Drive. Direct Impact.

GEA Insights
The breakthrough that changed spray drying
In 1976, NIRO engineers responded to a competitive challenge by rethinking what spray drying could do. Their idea became the multi-stage dryer MSD. Fifty years later, the same fundamental principle helps turn liquids into the powders used in essential nutrition products and important medicines around the world. Refined through decades of engineering expertise, customer insight and continuous development, MSD is a story of innovation with lasting impact.
Beyond the machine: unlocking better plant performance
An efficient machine does not automatically make an efficient factory. Real improvement often starts by looking beyond individual equipment and understanding how processes, energy systems and operating decisions affect one another. It’s a holistic approach designed to uncover opportunities that might otherwise be missed.
How a valve reshapes the way food and drinks are made
In food and beverage plants, valves are commonly operated using compressed air. GEA Hydract® Actuation Technology moves valves with water instead, in a closed, digitally controlled circuit. The result is a valve that can be held exactly in place and steered in fine-tuned steps. This results in lower energy use and greater control.
