1. PYNPUNT GEDREWE OPENING

Is your foodgrade powder handling operation struggling with inconsistent product quality, excessive waste, or costly compliance failures? In the production of powdered ingredients like FDAapproved cocoa, sugar, meel, or milk powder, inefficient screening directly impacts your bottom line. Algemene uitdagings sluit in:

Produkkontaminasierisiko: Inadequate screening allows foreign materials or oversized agglomerates to pass through, jeopardizing product purity and leading to potential FDA audit failures, costly recalls, and brand damage.
Ondoeltreffende deurset & Opbrengsverlies: Traditional screening methods often cause blinding (mesh clogging) and poor separation, resulting in low processing rates and significant product loss as good material is rejected with oversize.
Oormatige instandhouding & Stilstand: Equipment that is difficult to clean, sanitize, or repair leads to prolonged changeover times between batches and breeds noncompliance in hygienecritical environments.
Operateursveiligheid & Ergonomics: Open sieving systems generate dust, exposing workers to inhalation hazards and creating crosscontamination risks within the facility.

Are you seeking a separation solution that guarantees consistent particle size distribution, maximizes yield on valuable materials, and is designed for rigorous sanitary standards?

2. PRODUK OORSIG

The FDAApproved Cocoa Vibration Screen is a highperformance industrial vibratory screener engineered specifically for the dry classification of foodgrade powders and granular materials. It separates particles by size using a vibrating screen deck with defined mesh apertures within a fully enclosed, sanitary stainless steel structure.

Operasionele werkvloei:
1. Beheerde voer: Powdered cocoa (or similar product) is introduced via a sanitary inlet connection onto the center of the top screen deck.
2. MultiDeck Separation: A highfrequency, lowamplitude vibratory motion stratifies and conveys material across screen meshes. Fines pass through the top deck; middellinge word op onderste dekke geskei; oversize travels to a dedicated discharge spout.
3. Sanitêre ontslag: Separated fractions are discharged through isolated, sealed outlets into downstream processes (bv., packaging lines, mengers) with minimal dust generation.
4. Quick CleanChange Access: The unit features quickrelease clamps and toolfree screen deck access for rapid disassembly, mesh changeover, skoonmaak, and inspection.

Toepassingsomvang: Precision sizing of cocoa powder, confectioner’s sugar, spice blends, nutritional powders, instant drink mixes, and other dry food ingredients requiring 20 gaas aan 400 gaas skeiding.

Beperkings: Not designed for wet screening slurries or highly adhesive materials without modification. Maximum operating temperature is limited by seal integrity.
