On-size micro- nised powders discharge from the centrifugal sifter
From each bulk bag unloader, particles are micronised in the vortex mills (on fl oor), pneumatically conveyed into the product collector, and screened in the centrifugal sifter below it
The oversize agglomerated fl akes and hard particles are propelled through the open end of the cylindrical screening chamber and a discharge spout, to be recycled in the vortex mill, leaving only particles 5 microns or smaller that can be easily dispersed in liquid. “The centrifugal screener is mounted on a stand with wheels for easy transfer to other
production lines,” says Caskey. “It meets all applicable FDA, USDA and other standards, and removable end housings with rubber gaskets permit cleaning in just a matter of minutes. When our original centrifugal sifter experienced screen breakage caused by ma- terial buildup, which always oc- curred in the same location, both Kason and our local distributor, Cino Equipment of Hasbrouck Heights, NJ, recommended re- placement with the Quick-Clean model, which has a hinged end cover and three-bearing shaft that cantilevers for quick removal of internal components.”
External roller bearings are located at the motor end of the shaft and on a hinged cover at the discharge end for maximum support and vibration-free operation. When the end cover is hinged open, the shaft becomes a cantilever supported by a third externally mounted roller bearing located between the motor-end bearing
and material feed point, allowing internal components to slide freely from the opposite shaft end. “The sturdier 3-bearing design, and switching from nylon to stronger stain- less steel screen baskets, eliminated the screen breakage problem,” says Caskey. The sifter also eliminated a problem that Morre-Tec’s customer was experiencing with agglomerated particles clogging their equip- ment. “Since we installed the centrifugal sifter, we have had zero complaints,” says Caskey. “Because screen changes can be accom- plished in less than two minutes and cleaning is quick and easy, we can use the screener for other branded micronised products such as our Dicalcium and Tricalcium Phosphates and our Creatine Monohydrate. We can also offer toll micronising of non-hazardous ingredients for food, cosmetic, nutritional and pharmaceutical applications.” ■
