Industrial sifters
GEA has worked closely with customers to develop robust, reliable vibrating sifter technology for a wide range of industrial applications. Our sifters can be used to process different types of materials, including wood pellets, seeds, minerals, cement, fish flour, fertilizer, recycling and household waste. Applications may include fractionation, control screening, or dust and water removal. In addition to standard industrial units, we can also offer sanitary units on request.
Our technology also offers gentle product handling, which reduces the risk of product damage and loss, and can improve product consistency (particle size), with minimum processing.
Tailor-made to suit your requirements and available with an open or closed design, GEA Scan-Vibro sifters are easy to operate, inspect and maintain, and provide an energy and cost-effective solution for a wide range of size separation requirements.
GEA Scan-Vibro industrial sifters are designed with easy clean features, so equipment cleaning is fast and thorough, which helps to prevent contamination.
